Celica Track Car Build
Well after a long deliberation i finally decided to use a celica as my new track toy, managed to get hold of this 1995 2.0gt ST202 with 174 brake horses for the sum of only £300, the engine and box is sweet but needed a bit body work and a new clutch
so having had it only one day the full trim was stripped including the sunroof, then started on the body work and plugging the sunroof hole
then next was a pair of cobra seats and a cone filter
then rip out all the air con rad and pipes
next was some home made bonnet lifters to try and keep the under body temps down
then i managed to get hold of a set of 17" oz rims in white and lowered the whole car by 40mm
before springs
and after
then it was decided that the whole car looked a bit tatty so decided to book it in for a full shoot
and refit the roof plug properly
and here she is just out the booth, stunning job, much better than i expected
the roof after a quick machine
thats it for now, will add a bit more when i get time
