If i were you, id go ahead and get an el cheapo Honda. Drive around in that until you get the funds you need & in the mean time study the 7M engine, diagrams, etc. That way when you get the cash you already know what to buy. It took me about 2 months to get my car back up. There was a couple of parts missing & i got them by members on Supramania. It was sitting for 6+ months, i bought it, took 2 months to fix. The only thing about overhauling an engine is that it is time consuming.

I am sure you can find on for a good 1,300-1,500. Check the car, if you don't know anything about checking a car, get a member from here that lives close by to help you. Let it run and get hot as well.
Use the money you have left over to do a tune up, plugs, wires, air filter and gas filter. Check brakes and all hoses to make sure none are brittle.
After setting up a decent good daily driver, buy a 7M long block, and start a build. If you don't get something, ask questions.

IBoughtASupra;1659918 said:Huh? I am not getting that one IJ. Do you mean this is the OP's third Supra?
Or is "wored" supposed to be "worked," then it would make sense. Not trying to be a smart ass.
