Sean_Julian Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Welcome to my Supra TT build I brought a White Supra (front end damage). Very little internally within the car as you can See by the pictures, but I got it for a bargain price and it's perfect for a project as its a rolling Shell. Going to be getting the front end "jigged" out So that it is perfectly straight and inline then I Can commence with the engine bay Respray. For now I am going to be re spraying the interior Of the car with rust preventing primer and finishing It off with a gloss white to match the exterior of the Car. Before carpets etc get laid down. So the shell arrived yesterday looking in a sorry state But on the plus side.. It looked like a scene from the Fast and furious, arriving on the back of a truck!

Sean_Julian Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) So today I have taken everything interior wise out of the car, removed all panels and seats that were left once it was broken down and gave it a wash to see what the paint was like underneath, surprisingly it's immaculate! Obviously apart from the front end! Edited February 27, 2016 by Sean_Julian (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean_Julian Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 So that's today all sorted and also brought it a cover... As it has no doors at the minute. Tomorrow I will sand and spray rust preventing primer throughout the metal work within the car and prepare it for a gloss white finish. Will keep you all posted!

KamaSupra Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 You know what? This will decimate all, after, you put about fifteen grand in it or more. If we have to, overnight parts from Japan.... I could never do all this work, I wouldn't know how and I haven't got the patience Good luck and it's great to see lots of photos, keep them coming with any progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean_Julian Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 Loving the quote! I haven't really got a clue how to do half of the stuff to re build the car, but that's what projects are for! Will keep posted and more photos to follow tomorrow!

Sean_Julian Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 So yesterday you might of remembered the floor inside the car being all rusty and dirty, so today I have cleaned out the interior floor, washed it all down, and applied a grey coat of rust preventing primer on the base of the car to start with.
