New Member In Need Of Help...

Alright so heres the deal....I never really knew much about cars...and as a guy it should be clear, well i never had the guidance and anyways im an "adult" now and i just got my license...im 19 and i was in the army till i hurt my knee and had to leave and come home...well i got myself an older 82 corolla sr5 hatch back. I know it would take lots of work to make it a "sleeper" is what i belive my friends would call a car you wouldnt expect to be amazing. I like that idea. My friends all have bmws and cobras and they give me...crap about it alot and having an amazing sr5 would really put them in their place..ha...i know all this is not relative but that is why i turned to the forums...for guidance i guess like what it will take to smash on his cobra...petty i understand but if you only knew..and i know someone out there must be willing to help me...any ideas?
please?

-Justin.

Welcome

I'm a Toyota Dude, yet the only way you are gonna "smash" on his Cobra is with a baseball bat.
