Hello All

Got my 1998 Supra a couple of weeks ago.

I have decided im going to go Candy apple red in the new year,

 

It has an LPG conversion but thats now gone (Dont ask)

 

its a Manual N/A will turn to a turbo after next show season i think as getting rid of that colour is more important right now lol

Thats a wrap job, surely?

 

we thought the same, But actually it isnt its been sprayed base coat black then they must of used some sort of sponge or something to create the pattern.

Wow someone has actually bought that Supra. If I am not mistaken that is the one that has been up for sale for years? Some threads about it on here.

 

Yeah the garage that had it kept putting it up for sale and taking it back down.

He took a deposit of £900 but the guy never turned up for it.

 

it needs a few bits doing to it, Passed an MOT needing 2 new tyres so i cant complain.

I knew the guy who originally owned the car from Birmingham... it came to me a few times for parts....I don't want to sound bad but it needs a lot of work. it had lambo doors on it too. the seats are mk3, the wiring was a bit of a mess inside with leds everywhere etc. also one rear qtr has been hit hard before and is actually badly repaired and wider than the other! with the lace paint its hard to tell but it has..... just want to make you aware...

Yeah spotted that on the driver side, rear wing.

 

The LEDs are coming out and the inside is being dipped and the holes filled in, I have already ordered some seats online for it.

 

The wiring is a right mess and the person who put the LPG kit on should be taken outside and shot.

 

Pro Accoustics are going to run the full wiring loom.

 

It needs new rear bearings and could do with brakes all round.

 

Keron might grab your attentions and get some help off you :) if you dont mind that is

I work on the 41 industrial estate in Wakefield and have seen your supra parked up a couple of times when going out for some lunch.

 

ha ha id like to say "dont u agree it looks better in person then?"

But looking at some of the ones on here i cant say that because the colour is not nice at all !

Saw it at squires too, was in the daily not the supra.

 

Was surprised it showed up there. As you can tell it's well known on here, unfortunately not for the right reasons.

 

 

Whats it matter whats its known for? because a few people know the history and know it needs a few bits doing to it..

 

I didnt buy it to keep it as it is! i bought it because its a manual Supra, i knew i was buying a project from the start.
