^ Kind of hard to tell, but your car looks lowered. Looks good either way. Wish my Supra was black. :cry:

heres mine,

I post on the other forum so that counts for my low post count

black ruby pearl

^ Beautiful black Ruby! Maybe I'm biased but the Black mica from 89-90 is hand down the best color of black for our cars aside from the Dark Green Pearl Mica that came in japan only from 90-93.

 

[Supra28]

^ +1. Gotta love black MKIII's.

thanks guys, I have build thread on the other forum, "its been two years"


basically this is my second supra after selling my 86.5NA 3 years ago.

This one got a huge rebuild plus a paint job all within about 6 months.

I took a ROP (regional occupancy program) class after work, took about 5 months to do body work ( shaved emblem, shaved wiper nozzles, shaved antanaee hole on body and wing, shaved rear wiper arm) and then I had the instructor who has 30 years experience shoot the paint. All is left is cutting and polishing

nice! my dad resprayed mine and i did a lot of the trim work.. still not great, has some white spots from clearcoat that you can only see up close, did some wet sanding and it didn't come out, so i went with what i had rather than respraying everything.

After seeing these pictures I know why I never want to do anything with photography... Horrible picture taking skills... But I needed something to remember what my car looked like when it was clean seeing as how it was dirty like 20 mins after this was taken...

^ Left tail light seems to be a lil' lighter than the other two pieces. Car looks good none the less.

Those rims look very similar to what is fitted to the lexus gs 300 sport. here is a pic of my lexus and one of my supra for old times sake. Not driven it much lately as the gear box if shagged out.

To supra28- I think that is just the way the sun is shining... But thanks anyways.

To supramad777- I really love the look of the supra. Do you still own it? Its not the same one as in your sig is it? I love the header panel along with the body kit and spoiler.

Yea still got it and it is the same car. My avatar is a bit out of date. It has different wheels and the rest of the body kit fitted. No drove it much this year due to working on my house in my spare time and now it needs a new auto box as well so i will be putting it off the road soon for the winter.

***LOST IT IN THE DIVORCE**:cry: This was a bone stock '89 with just over 80k miles on it. It was originally ordered by and built for the Toyota Eastern Regional Director back in the day, and he eventually sold it to one of his friends. I have the delivery letter from the president of Toyota USA, and the original build sheet. The second owner had medical problems and it sat out for over 4 years before they decided to sell it. A new battery, some air in the tires, and a lot of patience and we drove it out of their yard. This is what it looked like after a lot of elbow grease. The wife and I split a month after these pics were taken, and a few months later she calls to ask me why the radiator overflow tank is bubbling coolant out and there is white smoke from the exhaust :evil2: Last I heard she still had it as of about 3 months ago and wanted to sell it to me - after not touching it for almost 3 years.....NOT!

For some reason I love that interior... Something about the brown leather is really cool...

 

[A70BoosTFienD]
