So, as many here know, my engine blew back in November, and I had every intention of fixing my white 1983 Supra...
Now, this car was originally going to donate its engine to my white car, which ended up falling through due to high cost of shipping and my own family life issues. The white Supra ended up getting sold (for dirt ass cheap considering what went with it) and I ended up moving out here to the great PacNW
This Light Blue JUNE 84 is aptly named Coyote Ugly due to being quite the hackjob. It has an 83 engine with main and engine harnesses, everything from the dashboard back is 83 wiring, which sucks. The windows do not work, and now I think the drivers window motor is completely burnt out. So she needs new harnesses which I believe Shawn will be helping me with. Also, the shifter bushing is gone, the one around the ball, it's just NOT THERE, so that obviously needs to be fixed.
Pix:
Car made it home, even with Matt driving (scorpmatt on cs.com)
Nice tweaked front end, doh
Interior...seats are ok, dash has some small cracks, carpet is utterly destroyed.
Cars first check up...... I was trying to see why the speedometer doesn't work, but apparently the cable and elbow are still good, so its the plastic gear thingy inside
Aaron (RabidChimp) helping me finish up putting the IP on.
Striking pose, eh?
Holy crap buildup Batman!
Bathtime, Matt hosing her down while Rich (Rich64N on cs.com) and the Chimp supervise, LOL
All clean (well mostly, it was getting dark and I didn't want to scrub wheels)
With all intents and purposes, this is kind of a fixer-upper thread and I will show progress pix along the way.
Very special thanks to Matt and Rich for all their help and thanks to Aaron being a big help with EVERYTHING and putting up with my bullshit. Future thanks to Shawn (aka Junkie aka old man, hehehe) who may be getting to teach me how to wire his brat up correctly
Many more pics, and probably numerous curse words to come
