Default Now that's a frame off restoration!

I've heard of a frame off restoration but this is just crazy. Rawr should like this one. Yeah it's alot of pics but it's well worth it from what it starts out from.

It's safe to say it probably is. I mean Celica is a group b so I'd kinda assume it's also the same. I mean look at the rest of the cars in that garage. Minus the bandit's car. lol.

I doubt cause they just like restored everything and everything on that car was pretty old. Well before SSauto came to. They just refinished it as it's the same manifold as before. Did you see how thick that flange is on that thing? Looks like atleast an inch thick.
