Default New project, What do ya think

I've always wanted an old skool import. I found this on ebay, my parents had one once and said it was one of the best cars they had.

I was thinking of a supercharged MR2 motor, or maybe a 88 or so Supra motor.

thats is old school..nice! I go more towards a supra motor if you can find one for cheap. they were once the same car and it might be easier and you'll have more power.

That car looks like it would be very nice for a project. Just like Whitey, I've never seen that old of a Celica before. It would be very original. You should try it out.. if you do, good luck with it!
