Hey all.
I had some fun times on Monday, let me show you pictures of what I was looking at. I noticed this thing while on a bikeride around town, I enjoy riding daily, it keeps me fit.
So I saw this car the week before while on the bike ride, then I stopped by Monday just past and got those pics. I talked to the people for an hour or so, I get really excited about supras so I just loved every minute! I talked about price, got her down from $1000 to $450 and we shook. Supposedly it has $800 worth of new tires. Called CAA, swung some deals with them and got them to tow my un-insured, un-licenced, un-registered, and un-plated car to my house ahahaa. It was not easy I tell you.
Hello up there!
He dropped it off in the driveway, and as it rolled off the bed it almost crashed into my garage ahahaha I was using all my strength to slow it down. I succeeded.
So I revelled in my new aquisition for the day basically. Tuesday, today, I got cracking at making it move into the garage as my mom needs the driveway for her car. The supra wouldn't start; it has a bhg. No electrical worked. So, we exchanged the batrery in and bought a new one, and tried it out. All electricals worked! Car wouldn't run, it cranked and turned over fine but no run. Back to store and I bought Bosche platinums. Put them in al cleaned the massive amounts of oil out of the valley( there was like half a glass worth eeewww!!!) and cranked and cranked... 3 attempts to crank and it FINALLY roared hesisantly to life!!!! We got it to idle at 1000 or so, rock steady idle too. MAJOR surprise at that idle. So, off we went down the street! It drove bad, but it was driving, ps was dying as it was hard to turn. It was puffing HUGE amounts of white smoke out of the exhaust ahahaa. My mom thought there was a fire. I mean like it looked like the clouds had flaoted down into my street it was thick. Anyway, This last pic should say how things ended for today.
Tomorrow do some cleaning on it, maybe start fixing the bhg as I have a spare hg from my turbo gasket kit for my engine anyway I might aswell try to fix this NA for free right
Specs: 88 NA 5spd targa without ABS, no abs frees up soo much space in that corner! I loved it.
