Hi 6gc community!
Gosh its been awhile since I've checked in. I still have my Celica BUT I purchased/upgraded to a BMW 335i Coupe (pretty much fully loaded) alittle over a year ago... so its has taken all my attention (sad to say). But like I said I decided to keep my Celica just because its been such a great car and I have put sooo much time/work/money into it. It was my first car and my Dad bought it for me back in '98-99, survived college high-jinx and I still use it as a long-tripper. Needless to say it has alot of sentimental value
Here are some pics of my new straight-six Twin turbo beauty and my first love! Hope yall r well and I apologize for the unresponded messages I have received.
PS- GO HORNS!!!!!!!!!
edit: almost forgot! The last thing I did on the Celica was to swtich back to my old cloth seats BUT I had a local upholstery shop redo them in black leather and dircted im to make the stitching as close to OEM as possibl and told him to put the proliferated sections in the proper areas etc. He gave me a great deal if I remember correctly. Added some pics (sorry old camera phone pics). I really didn't like the salvage yard leather seats that I had in there... I guess I missed the feal of my old cloth seats.
