Oldest Toyota On The Boards...

[TheNissanMan]

Just had a thought, who on the board drives (MOT & TAX'ed) the oldest Toyota...

Mines 12 years old (14yr old on way soon as it's in garage no mot or tax) But I'm sure we must have much older Toyota's than that around here....

Who's got all the classics on here ????

[gordypix]

Yeah, my Celica has just had it's 12th birthday. Just a baby.

Bet someone's driving a 70's classic.

Makes my 9 year old GT Starlet seem like a baby. :D

[TheNissanMan]

I'll leave the post to a friend who has just signed up but his car is older than my mr2 and gordy's celica together and could almost put your 9 year old starlet on to that sum as well....

I won't steal his light but all I'll say is it is one hell of a beast, seen it in the flesh and its gorgeous :D

Im Scot an i met Ryan in a BP garage and stood outside with him and chatted for about 2hrs in the cold last Jan or feb......? (nothing seedy i promise)

Let me know what kinda mods that r kicking about for u lot. I'd be very interested in hearing them. :D :D :D

[TheNissanMan]

Scot...

Don't you dare put any styling on that car, a paint job and suspension is all she needs (mind you with paint job the alloys could be refurbed :P ).

As for mod's here, scoop waiting to be finished should be done soon, when money allows revision 6 led clusters and new nose....

[Carlgolsby]

I NEED to see this car! :D

[TheNissanMan]

Saw it yesterday :)

I've told scott he has to get some pictures, its a stunner although needs some paintwork done....

What you really need to see is under the bonnet :D :D :D

[Scot]

ha.

Just wait till u see what a 70's TRD fron spoiler looks like. None of this namby pamby stuff thats on new cars :P

Theirs nothing wrong with my alloys... i just need to clean them as the are bare ally with no laqure. U can come round and help me if u like :D

im sure a hard days work could teach u a thing or 2 :)

[Scot]

Thats front spoiler... sorry .

[TheNissanMan]

Sure, if you need a hand give us a call anytime I'm free from 4 in the evenings and every weekend :D :D :D

MOre than happy to help but with having no knowledge of cars at all you'll be teaching the blind, extra pair off hands always available (although will always bring my camera :D

If it's te proper TRD kit your putting on I can't wait to see it :D

[Scot]

In that case when i get my pistons, you can come and have a look at the internals of an engine.

Will also need some muscle when dropping it in later on down the road if u want to find out how to install an engine......

[TheNissanMan]

More than willing to help.....

As for muscle I'll see what I can do :D
