New MKIII Owner

[RedRunner_87]

I picked up my buddies 87 Supra a couple weeks ago. Its in pretty good shape body and interior wise for spending 21 years in the Phoenix Sun. It has the Tems suspension, limited slip rear end and only 102K miles. Now it is the debate on where to start with it. I know the master brake and slave cylinders are leaking and needs a new intake and exhaust. Also need to figure out why I have no heat. Other than she runs like a champ and is fun as hell to drive! I have a few ideas floating around my head for the summer but need to sell my other vehicle before I start building this one. Sorry for the crappy picture all I have at the moment is my camera phone.

Nice looking supra man, maroons the way to go. And by the way, its Tems, not Temps.

my first soop was a maroon one.
It's okay to call it TEMPS,because that's about how long it stays in before upgrading!

Haha thanks for the catch guys. I knew it was tems but I guess I didn't catch that before I posted. I think it is a bad time to sell a lifted V8 Jeep so it may take awhile before anything happens with the Supra. Just cruising the boards collecting ideas on what to do. Would anyone know where to find the factory paint codes for the Supra? I want to repaint it in the Summer but keep it maroon.

Replace the headgasket and torque it correctly. Make sure to constantly check the oil level. Other than that, just basic maintenance and you will have yourself a very fun car.
