wile e coyote Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 Little update Kane done his finnal polish at weekend and glass all fitted Its not a supra without the spoiler so that's been refitted with refurbed struts 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Should be the star exhibit at the NEC in November. It'd be worth considering some side stands to tilt the car with some underside lighting so punters could get a look at the underside as that is where 30 year old Supra's tend to vary these days. There is usually lots of offers to buy the cars off the display stand but any offers probably wouldn't get close to covering the rebuild costs you have incurred. Its a labour of love and to hell with the expense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wile e coyote Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 Yes plan is mirrows underneath with lights one side of the car will have wheels on and on the ground other side we have hub stands and will leave the arch liners off so behind can be seen would have to be an offer I can’t refuse for it to go 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
