"dragon-o-rust" ---- 72 celica

ok i got the 72 celica rust bucket!!!

im excited yet nervous at the same time she has a lot of rust but i plan on building up a sub frame and stiffening the chassis

then onto wiring and and re running fuel and brake lines all safety stuff first!!

then the hunt for suspension and a baller engine swap!! thinkin 4age ae86 engine and trans or beams 6spd 4cyl out of an altezza

ether way she will be a mean low rusted pos rat rod!! hahaha






hahahaha!!!! i will park mine like this!!

Nice!

What does the underside look like?

nice

underneath looks like crap!!! lol got some holes but manageable i want to focus on all the link points and support them that way i can tare up the streets without worry that the car will fall into pieces lol

sounds like my car cept my seat fell through the floor. did you get to haggle the guy down much?

stuck for 600 but to me its worth it ill post more pics soon its got all original everything!! she will be ugly to most but loved by some

that is one cool as hell car. looks like you got some kind of optional side skirts on that thing. all of the other celicas you posted dont have them...

also whats the story on the rust? did they start bringing it down to bare metal and give up?

600 is still less than the 1000 they initially posted it as

yeah they started cleanin her up taking all the bad paint off before the suffice rust even appeared then gave up as they have other builds then she just got left..... the rust underneath isnt too bad but i wanted to do some frame work to make sure she wont fall apart layin frame

Dude i love it. We are gonna come up some day this coming next couple weeks so the kids can play and I can check it out!

You should sell me that WRX Wagon for $4000 JK. But nice!

shhhh.. its a impreza wagon...dont tell though!

yeah hush hush she fake as hell but low

for sure glen johnboy has been talkin about the boys ever since the BBQ lol

Lets sell some more pics of this thing!!!!

teaser of the interior seat need a lil cleaning but for a 72 there great!!

been lookin into this guys build thread and its pretty much the same route i was going...
full ae86 suspension swap and he went with a 20v mr2 engine but im sticking with the beams better power and easier to swap in

but his direction is almost were im headed

update!!!!! i was wrong his 20v took a crap so now he has a beams engine in......... so i guess im copying someone else lol oh well
