Hi, My name is Vang. I always wanted to start up my very own build thread so here it is.
Let me tell you a little about myself. I always wanted a MKIV. It was and still is my dream car ever since I was like 10. I always wanted to own one. My car I got at age 16 was my dad's old Integra LS. I drove that for half a year but my dad would take it to work once in a while since he really likes Integra. One day it was storming and my dad was coming back from and he hydroplaned and crashed the car. Thank god my dad wasn't but the car had front driver end damage and the insurance company wouldn't fix it. So we had a choice to either give the car away to the insurance company for 3300 or keep the car and take only 1100. My dad decided to keep the car because my dad loved that car that much. After the crash, the car sat in the garage. I told my dad to fix it with the insurance money but he never did. So I ended up with no car.
So after a year, I saved enough money to get a new car. My dad said he will go half-half with me. First, I was looking at Acura RSX. But one day after work, my dad told me he saw this very cool car. He took me to go see it the next weekend and it was a white 87 auto Supra. When I saw it I was like ehhh. I like the box style of the car and it looked to be a clean car. Boy was I wrong. I took it for a test drive and it made me want to get it. But after the test drive, my dad starting looking around at the car. He noticed that the underbody was very rusty and there was a rust hole in the spare tire well about 6inches big.
This made my dad not want to buy it. When we got home from that car ride, I searched craiglists all day for the next 3 months looking for a nice clean Supra. And one day I finally found it. It was located in Sun Prairie near Madison. I lived in Milwaukee and once I saw it, I told my dad. When my dad saw it, he instantly fell in love with it. My dad loves the boxy style of the older Japanese cars. His dream car is the Acura NSX. Well the next weekend my dad, my brother in law and I went to Sun Prairie to go look at the car. At the time, I didn't know how to drive manual so my brother in law came. My dad doesn't know either. Well when we went to go see it, it was the cleanest supra MKIII I've ever seen. The only problem it really had was on the front bumper where the grill is on the bottom is broken off with the bottom of the front bumper. Can't really notice it under you go straight too it. Also, the driver side front mud flap was kind of bulging out alittle. We took it for a test drive and 1 hour later, we was driving it home. When the car got home I took started taking picture of my new car.
This was right after we got it home. I had the biggest smile on my face!
When it got home, I was so happy. For the next week, my brother in law was teaching me how to drive manual in his Integra GSR. After finally 2 weeks, I was good enough to finally drive my car around. At first it was only from here and there, but after a while, I gained enough confidence to drive it everywhere.
