I find burn-out vehicles are never a good investment to fix. The time and money to replace all melted wiring, rubber, glass, interior, and more is greater than the valve of another car. Not to mention the body might be warped from the heat. IMO, it’s worth its weight in scrap metal at best. There are better Supra out there to start as projects.

It's not like they're worth a lot anymore...I'd just purchase a good running car with higher mileage and work with that if you want a project. This will cost you far more than it'll ever be worth to get running again.

the JDM models are going for cheap, a good north american model still goes in the $20s and 30 thousands.
