Talking ! Tires spun

My car is ontop of ice and I can't move it a bit.

Wheels are spinning on top of thin permafrost that won't melt even in +10 temp.

Ever see anyone doing a burn out ontop of ice? I am afraid to do it, I might actually melt the ice and hit my car in the garage

anyways, I guess I won't be driving the 86 around the block for fun pretending to be delivering tofu (ask my gf, I even hum to Initial D theme music when i drive it around the block ).... can't wait till I can drive it (before it ships to the new owner)

I still have the car, some guy said he paid me deposit but I haven't recieved it yet...
Some other guy is coming and said he wants to buy it this weekend....

mostly all talks, but I expect the car to go in april for sure



No more toyota? I am interested in the Turbo Echo, but they don't have it!
I might find a better 86 that doesn't require work

Making a turbo echo would probably be cheaper and get you more HP the price of used 2000's is dropping like a rock. Might do that to ours in a couple of years.

Though I was thinking the stock compression is actually quite high and with some minor work and some programming changes I think I could prolly gt 30-40 more HP out of it. Not going to think about this more though I already have one project in the garage heh.

I hope it is not classfied as a "parts car",
everything works fine!
Except a little rust here and there!
It is pretty much a complete daily driver despite the cosmetics.

Pictures.... let me see

I still haven't recieved anything from anyone yet.

Weather is nice!

I am going to finish touching up all the rough spots this weekend and should be ready to come out in 1-2 weeks.

Welcome to see it then!
