Earlier this week a co worker called and asked if I could come by and help get his friend's 85 celica running again after it just shut off.
I went by yesterday morning. HOLY SHIT. Obviously built in the early 90s this thing was straight out the "cars that go boom " video.
It started life as a 85 gts convertible that the drug dealer previous owner grafted on a mk2 supra front chassis, body panels and 5mge onto. For some reason it had a 82- 83 top. Painted school bus yellow with a kaminari kit moulded onto to it along with a hood wing & trunk wing shopping car handle.The interior was redone in black & yellow leather with the back seats deleted in lue of a pair of Cerwin Vega monster subs. Continuing the entertainment was a 10" tube tv in the dash with a vcr. YES A VCR. oh year and a playstaion also, the original. The motorized trunk was filled with gigantic phoenix gold amps with a crazy enclosure.
Motivating all of this with the 5m was probably ok, but they added a trd header & pacesetter exhaust to it. To assist the system, 5 yellow top batteries & 2 alternators.
To sum it up. It was wild and unique. I wouldn't mind hearing some JJ Fad knocking through those speakers though.
