JohnHandy Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Err pardon my ignorance, but what is a front strap, why do you have 2 and how much are you expecting plus where does it fit? Excuse the dodgy art work...... 40% off Toyota list price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I think your missing my point,[sNIP]... Why would you put an expensive kit onto a Cat D car though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee from China Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Why would you put an expensive kit onto a Cat D car though? Not sure what you mean Rob as a Cat D is not really a stigma it just means the insurers decided it was not in their interests to repair and as i said before starting with a virtually bare shell would be more cost effective than starting with a straight car and then most of it having to be removed and sold on etc. This would be more a repair the visible damage and then rebuild using all the bits and bobs I want on it and get it exactly as I want both inside outside and under the hood!

Tee from China Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 They are the parts the fenders attach to, they run parallel to the chassis leg Really? as Johns picture shows them above and below the headlamp at the front and not 'parallel' to the chassis leg and what you are describing would be on the inner wing panel surely?

Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Got to agree nearly the same as my lil mishap..... I am lovingly restoring mine..... Parts £1200 Drivers side Inner wing (now not required) 2 x Front straps (now not required) Full rear quarter panel Arch liner Wing Uk glass headlights. Labour £2000 Body kit £850 Full car re-spray £3000 Volks wheels £2500 Top secret diffuser £1400 Mine is unrecorded and also an aero. Total cost over £10K but I will not be selling and it will be the color I want with the body kit i want. Maybe we should start a forum for rescue a supra. (NSPCS) looks like it needs to go back on the jig mate, the boot lid dosent line up with the rear driver side arch, the bonnet dosent line up with the front driverside wing, front driver side had a nock:taped: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drivers wing is not bolted down just placed on for rough alignment of bonnet. Bonnet not in final alignment position yet. All fettling and shut lines will be done at the body shop (Toyota approved) before full car re-spray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
