Oh I'm gonna stick with it!!!...This was the car i wanted before muscle cars(actually the 85 86 celica supra mkII )but close enough...i had found the nova for a good buy and i needed a car...then i needed gas mileage and something that had a little speed and sport to it for school...so i found the supra from a old lady...lol I'm gonna try to keep em both...but money is hard to make here....so I'm actually going to a community college for the Toyota program.....we have like 2jz's sitting around...and a supra...the 1993 supra American prototype track car...lol...it has no vin...nothing....the wiring harness is insane...nothing like the repair manual........ but anyways here some pics... of mine...it's kinda dirty and broke....lol

Welcome!

The car looks like a good starting point. You have one of the best colors, leather interior.........and the rare Super Monitor. The work will be fun, and none of it is hard with the help with the folks here.

Where is this school? And why have we never heard of this prototype before? Sounds cool!

Wow 53,000 miles! Nice find. It's nice seeing lonely supras finding their hands into people who will treat them well . Good luck.

Welcome!!! I am Alabama's favorite yankee visitor from Fargo ND....lol

I winter at Suprahero's/Vixen's house so mabey someday I will see you at a meet. The car looks great and way low mileage is sweet!!! I got to meet most of the Bama supra owners when I was down a few weeks ago and you have a great group around you. Again welcome and enjoy your stay here on SM...:icon_bigg `
