Okay it is time for me to start this build thread. So last October I bought a 1993 Mr2 for $500 at the young age of 14. here are some pics of it when i first got it.

The car was in a VERY sorry state. The entire drive home it was shooting flames out the tail pipe about a foot long because the exsaust manifold was completely cracked so I pulled that and got it welded up. The quarter s where in horrid condition the old owner cut them up for what ever reason and it had a half inch of bondo. So I ground it all off and me and my dad went out to buy a shrinker and a streacher and a sandbag with the shaping hammer and I started making flairs.. but I dont like how it turned out so in august me and my dad are going to take a 2 day class on how to use an english wheel and we are going to hopefully invest in one.
I haven't done too much too it beside some clean up I had to buy new popups and I recovered the headliner with some suede.
And I know everyone hates fake wheels. But I just turned 15 and I make money by buying and selling things so im not rich. And im trying my best to build the car with MY money. Not my oarents. So I bought xxrs. They are 18x9.75 in the rear and 17x8.25 up front.
and im running some d2 coilovers.
