New here and looking to get a ra29. Right now I have an Eagle Talon widebody w/ Eclipse conversion.

I need to go old school though, so the Talon is going soon. Once I find my Celica, I'm sure I'll have lots of questions for the pro's. Thanks in advance.

Welcome aboard!

Nice car. Where do you live? What are your plans for the celica?

I'm located near U of I in central Illinois. Not too many cars survive the salt used for the roads in winter. Rust is a huge problem with anything older.
What I'm wanting to do is build a retro custom ( think Foose or Coddington ) w/ up dated engine / internals, better suspension and of course the biggest rim / tire package that can fit for that G-machine look.

Sweet!
Another midwest guy. I live in the middle of Missouri, but I am from St. Louis. My wife has relatives in the north central Illinois area (Franklin Grove, Rockford, Dixon, etc.) so we make it that way every so often.

I understand what you mean about survivors. I don't see many celicas in my area (by "not many" I mean "none"). Good luck with your search. If you have any questions or need any help, the guys on this board are really cool. There are a couple guys in the Chicago area on the board too.

Welcome to the forum.
cool looking car, but it looks like a $180,000 vehicle that got blown up in a movie i cant remember the name of
