Like the gray. You have been bitten by the corolla bug. Keep us updated if you do anything.

Exactly why iv posted not too sure where to start :), kinda want a square headlight grill for it and fix up the interior a bit, having trouble finding parts tho.

Start with overhauling the suspension, brakes and driveline, do it in small pieces if money is tight. Have u given it a good service? Ie filters, points gap, oils, timing, valve clearances etc, etc.

Hey mate , tidy ill rolla , as jay said brakes first , maybe wheels and ride height , half inch from the back , inch from the front ( PLEASE don't cut the springs ) if your looking for the 55 late front try old school wrecker or other blokes on this forum . For inside what condis is it in?. Could you show us pics?

 

If you need ideas, Check / change fluids, Clean everything, Pull off the hitch from the back. The more time you spend with the car, the more you will refine what you want.

As you can see the interior is a bit shitty but I'm not too fussed with that atm that will all come at then end, as far as I'm aware its a 5k and a 5 speed box. Looking for a 4age that i can drop it :D was thinking sr20 but would love to keep it toyota, and I'm hoping it will be a bit easier. Allready looking at getting it lowered, gonna get a few quotes from some suspension shops and see how much it'll cost me first tho :)
