So as am not up to much today may as well put some more pictures up. So I waited 3 months for the car to get painted as my mate was doing it as a favour and this was the teaser picture he sent while it was in the booth. So the next day I was down at the unit putting it back together.

Was thinking about changing it but u know what this is my car so its the name for my car not the supra as a collective, I know the skyline was nick named it but that was the car in general, ive always liked this as a car name. Out of the 25 cars ive owned ive never named one untill now . this isnt a dig at anybody who as posted as am not that kind of person everybody is entitled to an opinium. Thanks for reading. :-)

Didn't cost me anything to repair it ;-)

First off was a major service belts, gaskets ,plugs, leads. Once all this was done I turned my attention to the outside. Deciding on a colour was doing my head in for a while but finally decided on mercedes Brilliant white. A week off work was booked to strip and prep . I opted to remove the ariel and rear windscreen wiper and weld up.. Next was to sort out drivers door as there was a bad repair. All preped and ready to go in booth. More to come tomorrow

Haha I know... just like that name ;-) and if I get the plate I want GOD2114

Finally managed to sort all my pictures out . So now its time to give the car a name and begin my build thread. Bought the car in jan 2014 with the intention of doing a fast and furious replica. But as it turned out couldnt get the correct wheels or spoiler so I decided to go a different route paul walker tribute with a little twist. Posting the 2 pictures of the day I got home. As its on an irish plate im waiting for the right irish to come available. May take forever but it al b relavent to the name. Will get the first stage up tomorrow

After owning my NA Supra for one year she has gone under the knife or so to speak. Started as a black standard example in need of some tlc. A full service to start belts gaskets leads an plugs oil filter an oil. I then turned my attention to the body the colour hmmmm mercedes white was chosen I then added a splitter an ridox side skirts removed ariel windscreen wiper at rear . Once I got her back I turned my attention to the wheels 18" XXR 521's in flat bronze. Then the full leather retrim with white stiching to finish :-)
