Its HOME! A few more posts and I can get the pictures all added in. I've taken the rusty front wings off to find a lovely clean underside, but it is in dire need of some blasting and undercoating. So for the next month that should be my life, I'm also going to whip out the engine and get it cleaned ...

Progress update.

I've had both flat tyres repaired, stuck some part worns on.

Unstuck the brakes, and made it all move for the first time in 3 years.

Then I wheeled it over to the door, ready for Friday when it gets picked up.

Not long now

Quick update. Couldn't start it, because under inspection after getting some floodlights set up, it doesn't have an auxiliary belt OR any oil in it. So I wasn't sure if everything would work or not. Doesn't matter, and i managed to have a full look at the car which made me really happy. All the rust...

All taken under consideration, I'll be checking it all over tomorrow, hopefully starting it.

Then it will be picked up on Sunday, in whatever condition its in.

what colour is it? would love to see some pictures.. great to here you bringing it back to life.. Its the silvery blue colour, but it has had some racing vinyl stripes put on it, and some spraypaint here and there from where it was a autocross car. BUT my goal would be to spray it Porsche Mexico Bl...

See, This is the kind of information I needed. I will use a Y rope technique over the front axle then, pulling on the wishbones or whatever to get it up the ramp. If all goes well I might be able to drive it on, so we shall see. And yeah, once I've posted enough comments on here, I'll post some pict...

Another quick question. Its got 120,000 miles on the clock. Its got a set of piper cams (fast road) and a stage 1 head I know this was all done before it was stored, but after it was taken off the road. So its done somewhere between 2000 miles since that top end rebuild from looking at the ODO and i...

That's a good point, I think I will pop up on Saturday and test the fuel pump and injectors first. See if anything is happening there. If its not I'll just whip the wheels off and make sure the trailer has a winch.

Brilliant, all I needed to know.

I'll report back on Sunday, and hopefully have a running engine.

Hi everyone :) I've had a stroke of luck and found myself a 88' MR2 T Bar 1.6 It's my first Toyota, and first RWD car, having owned nothing but Fords for the past 7 years, including a new Zetec S TDCi now. I've attached a few pictures, so you can have a look. But its in a rough state, and I'm hoping...
