New to the Supra World, 1st project

[jksmith]

I have always owned Hondas and other MISC F(ail)WD Vehicles and finally ran across something i liked and jumper on it

Haven't touched the car yet, just got it home last night, going to try to get on it tonight and check everything on it, start cleaning it prepping for Paint, Clean the interior (prolly going to have front seats recoverd) and Pulling the motor

1990 Turbo Targa 164xxx miles - 100% stock

-Body is fairly clean, little surface rust on both quarters (fenders wells are SOLID), and a few dings here and there
-Motor starts and seems to run great but has a nice KNOCK in it.
-Tems Suspension seems to work
-has tan leather interior, everything is VERY CLEAN except the 2 seats, dash is near mint, and everything is there!
