ive been trying to find the other website for quite some time then finally stumbled across this just the other day.
im so happy i finaalllly found it! now i can get some good help and ideas.
so i have a 1981 te71 coupe,
i bought it for 200, it was uuuuuuuuugly! but it drove strong, ( because its a toyota;p)
there was some rust, a dent in the door, uuuugly paint, little nicks and things.
the interior was aaaalll basicly garbage.
dash was soooo cracked,
i had to drive it over the pass back here, and i got a flat tire btw too... -___-
haha
so i stripped it all,
put a coat of primer on :p
and cleaned and scrubbed for two weeks straight. hahahahah
finally my dad said he'll start helping me out with alot more stuff,
CURRENT MODS- Racing Bucket Seats, 4 point harness, some gauges, oldschool racing type rearview mirror. rebuit the dash, slpash gaurds ;p cleaned up stockies :/ lowered springs. back half is gutted. repainted and fixed door panels. good air filter. fenders 1/2 way pumped. and exhaust..
MODS TO COME SOON- Header im ordering friday, looking to get full exhaust too. trying sooo hard to find some wheels. going to build a custom box in the back for 2 12" also and building a box for my stereo to, finish fenders. put bumpers back together, PAINT white this weeked hopefully! get good lowering springs, new brakes badly.. and try and find a good ol webber or somethin.
