Matt H Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 You all have probably seen these two threads by now http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=132430&highlight=matt.h http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=132594 Then this thread popped up, A 98 aerotop shell http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=133399&highlight=aerotop The timeing seemed to be too good, so what do you get when you combine the two?! My supra, as it was but with some little extras such as face lift interior and electric folding mirros, but most importantly, everything i had.. plus an aerotop I just couldnt leave the supra world, loved my car to bits. So its transplant time, then back off to the bodyshop to revive that exterior to what it was, minus a roof Wish me luck guys, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Good luck Matt, just keep it for a long time as it will be a mare to shift on as a declared cat c ! Thats what i dont get, its going to be in better condition that 99% of other cars available, all brand new seals to add to the details etc. Engine rebuild, brand new turbos, everythings going to be like new. Personally, for such a special car, whats a letter?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
