    Default 1976 Toyota Corolla - TE31 Update v...been a while. Part 1 shot.

    --been too long since I posted an update.

    I will list details of what's been done later. Hats off to John [mechanics] and Dave [cosmetics] at Zero Garage for where the corolla is now.

    I took many more pics, but just one for now, 'til I have more time.



    Here's part 2: Conyers gets down like this... Old School Toyota Corolla Part 2...

    We weren't sure how the orange trim would look. I'm thinking about keeping it 'cause it took some time [and money]. Have faith, my friend:::

    I'm leaning towards the brown again for when it gets painted.

    The wheels, suspension, and body are not final. It's pretty cool to think where it began.

    I saw this car in Real and it looks flat out amazing. Hats off to the Zero Garage guys.

    They are about to sparkle my M30. Can't wait for that. Quality man.

    Thanks, man. That '71 was definitely a keeper. I'm going to assume it's out of possession since you used past tense.

    On another note, two red squares? You must have pushed the wrong peoples' buttons.
