New here, but not so new to the community.
My family owned 5 Celica Supras in a span of about 3 years back about 9 years ago. Made a terrible mistake of letting go of a super clean Black P type that we picked up for 500 bucks. Had less than 60k miles on it and was absolutely beautiful, just needed a new HG. Fixed it, drove it for a little bit, sold it to a friend down the street. They drove it to Canada and back and we missed the car so we bought it back, only to sell it again about a year later. I kick myself every day for letting that car go.
I went on to purchase an '87 Turbo a couple years later, did a lot of work on that car and eventually sold it because I didn't want to continue daily driving it but couldn't afford another car.
Few years on down the road I now have my 1991 Mitsubishi Galant VR4. I'm still very interested in Supras of all years and would some day like to find myself another P type, but for now I'm going to have to live without.
I do still happen to have a rather large amount of assorted MK2 parts in my dad's garage, including a complete 5M with auto trans that was pulled from a running car that was scrapped. The engine only has ~70k miles on it and didn't have any problems when it was removed. It has since sat covered in our garage for nearly 10 years but still has all accessories and even the Intake tubing and AFM.
Part of my reason for registering was to try to offload some of these parts, another is so that I can watch over the site in hopes of some day finding a future car and learning more along the way.
Anyway, sorry for the novel. Oh, and my name is Chris! :wave:
Oh, and I'm not sure what his name is on the board, but I'm good friends with Kevin who drives a Muspra (84 Mustang with a 7M and R154) so he was my reference!
