well guys and girls i finally got my first project toyota and its a 74' Ta22 celica and when i upload pics it will seem like a lot of work but all worth it in the end it is just a rolling shell at the moment the first few pics are as it was when i got her and yea there is qutie some rust but its not as bad as a mate of mines basically most of the rust is on the drivers side.

 

 

these are pics before i picked it up

tell me what you guys think the idea is that i want to get it on the road soon so i will post some more pics as the last two days i have been tackling the body work as i have no job atm so i have endless time on my hands so i started to sand back the body and locate anymore rust

 

 

NOTE THIS CAR WILL MOST LIKELY BE THE NEXT PROJECT THE SLIDING TA22 WITH A CA18DET OR SR20DE

well my mate that owns the yellow one SLW42 aka justin and i have been thinking on a colour that we think will stand out quite well its either the VE commodore light green colour or i was even thinking has anyone seen the new E2 HSV green(if not then go past springwood holden its on top of a container) lol

and as far as the engine it will start out stock i got a mate how said i can have a 3t off his old man so that will probably go in then down the track possibly a 3tgte

well today was a lazy day basically has a day off cause i did so much on it the last 2 days its not funny i will put some more pics up now

so yesterday i finished removing the paint on the roof and basically just painted a bit of the engine bay in satin black to see what it would look like.

 

and today well justin gave me some shocks out of his white Ke70 that he has been parting out as the celica didnt have any and well bolted them in i probably will replace with new ones but for now the help and well went to oxley wreckers and grabbed the shock bushes and bolts as they werent there as well

 

i will post a pic of the engine bay and painted front end section

 

pic of the front panel painted satin black

Don't go orange, thats what I'm doing :wink:

 

hmm That Commodore sounds like it'll be hard to reach :jamie:

 

Oh and why not put a K engine in it? lOl ;)

;) to your effort so far. You must be serious about getting this done! Especially the hard bits.

It's not my opinion, but I can't really see a Celica (especially TA22) going a stand-out green colour. Also since you're a fan of

the Undertaker a dark colour would suit "you" more. Have you got an inspirational pic of what you want it to look like?
