[z8dmc]

do you have the black seal for the lights

 

[modmonster2008]

yes i do, why?

 

[arizzle]

looking good man what a big change from before! its almost like how my black supra started out.

 

[modmonster2008]

thanks, well i finally got 1/3 of my 3 piece tails lol, but yeah got some plastic lens restore and it shined up almost like new!!

 

[modmonster2008]

Updates: Removed the amber piece from the tails since im gonna be using some silverstar bulbs (silver/blue when off, amber on) to make it have the cool looking effect when its parked in front of the sun

 

[modmonster2008]

wow, no updates for a while aha

 

[modmonster2008]

Yeah i dunno, if i get a 5-speed transmission for it then yes ill keep it, and yeah recent pics are here, interior wont fully come back until i get the spare wheel carrier restored, it has rust but i grinded down like shown in previous pages and waiting for paint, and i still need a good windshield, btw the new speakers for the fronts sound awesome, i just need a sub for the rear...

 

[modmonster2008]

Updates, started back on the spare tire compartment, sprayed the area with primer so rust will stop and then paint will come soon!

 

[gelboy1015]

what kind of front speakers are those? is the bass any good with them?

 

[modmonster2008]

those are actually DUAL illuminite speakers, they have decent sound but im only lookin for mids on the front due to the fact that the pre-91 speaker boxes have almost no space at all to have bass, but im hookin up a single 12" sub when the car is done so i have bass

 

[All-Trac]

Wow man congratulations on all the work and progress with the car. It's gota take so much patience. Hopefully I will be as patient with my project once i get a Supra. That's the only truly correct way to do it. Good Job :icon_bigg

 

[modmonster2008]

thanks! but yeah its kinda making me impatient since its been garaged since 11/08 and i need a car as a daily driver

 

[modmonster2008]

Updates: finally got the speakers to light up thats it for today

 

[the t3d]

Regardless of the level of expertise, or who's doing the work, is always nice to see people restoring the Supras instead of parting and crushing them.

Keep it up! and always take care of the details!

 

[modmonster2008]

yeah duals are the lowest wattage speakers at the audio store here but i only need them for mid/highs so its all good, and yeah i think that too, its sad to see crushed up supras and if their parting it out frame damage would be a good reason

 

[modmonster2008]

LOLL DAMNNN! I started priming the car today yay! ran out of primer tho BOO! hhahaha but its okay, my heated garage is soo nice

 

[modmonster2008]

Updates in a long time, heres how the car is going now.....

 

[mk3design]

Looks good, keep up the hard work

Just looked at all the pictures, looks like things are goin' pretty good, and I like how you decided to change the tail lights haha, I don't really like the old ones. Your sup is gonna be sick, make it a GTE after a while
