Im Back

[Souljah]

Hey, my name's Ryan. I've been a member since 2005 when i first started helping a co-worker restore a red 1984 Celica Supra MKII automatic that sat in his backyard for 2 years before we found it after mowing his lawn. >_< He then sold that car to me as my first car but I never got a chance to make it out to any of the meets before it was repo'ed up on me when some unexpected expenses came up and i was unable to pay for the car about 1 year ago.

well guys, im back
my last car (a 1993 Mazda 626 2.0L 5spd) was just written off and i just collected the insurance money
and so this weekend i fully intend on making my way down to Calgary for,
maybe you guessed it:

another red 1984 Supra MKII, but this one's a 5spd
i am going nuts here in anticipation

hoping to finally get to meet some of you guys :D

I wonder if that could be my old car. It was super red with a hardtop and a white hatch decal.

[Souljah]

thanks guys :)
heh could be
i have yet to see it in person yet, but im bringin the money down when i go see it
the guy says its from BC, nearly mint condition, no rust
so if i like what i see im leaving the city with it and bringin it home to edmonton xD

if not then... well guess ill have to settle for a 1989 Nissan 240sx with body rust :(

[Black_fin]

Not mine.

[Souljah]

eh,... this car's got more issues than i thought
i bought it, but... it needs love

it's got the supra club logos in the rear windows

driver side body is good but passenger molding is falling off, front fender flare is damaged
interior is half stripped

exhaust is leaking, ebrake doesnt work, and... head gasket just went on me
370 000km on the odometer

could it be yours?

[Supra_devil]

might be canuck daves old car.

[Black_fin]

Does the right front passenger flare look like this?

[Souljah]

yep, exactly
would the rest of that tire happen to say somthing like
"stigner radial gts" on the sidewall?

how'd that happen anyway?
i was looking at it looks like fiberglass?
pretty sure can be repaired

[annoyingrob]

It's really easy to replace the flare. If you can find another red one.

Actually Supra Soul might have one.

I'm not sure how a lot of that stuff happened, the car was extremely neglected when I got it. It sat in a field for five years with a blown engine. I have a pile of pictures for you.

[Souljah]

heh... blown engine indeed -_-
it ran for a little while >_>

well he says it sat in his driveway for 8 months without being run so its been neglected still

did the power windows, heater/blower motor, gauges work for you when you had it?
the ONLY gauge that works for me is the speedo, im hoping its a fuse O.o;;

i got your emails with pics, much appreciated :)

[Black_fin]

Everything worked fine. Id that mint hatch still on it?

Sounds like a fuse to me. The speedo is mechanical, while the rest are electrical.

im not sure which is on it, i know it had "SUPRA" in white lettering across the back and had a black wing on it, its being trailered up today i havnt seen it since thursday.
