“If you love something set it free. If it comes back it’s yours. If not, it was never meant to be.”

Here's my AE86 resto project. I owned it about 4 years ago and ended up selling it to a guy who planned to restore it with his son, but his son was more interested in his music than cars, so it ended up sitting around untouched for majority of the time. He had stripped it down and bought a lot of parts for it.

I missed the car so I kept pestering him about selling it back to me. Finally he was ready to sell and now it's back in my possession.

Here she is in her former glory -




And how she sits now -






It was running a smallport 4A, which is still with the car and has had a freshen up.


My plans are to restore it best I can and put it back on the street. I'll be keeping the same general colour scheme.
