The car would have to be brought down to bare metal and repainted ($6000-$6500 quote) I also want to do some work to the motor to get it a bit quicker. My main question is do you guys think it's worth the money to paint this one and do work on the motor? Also what do you guys recommend as far as upgrades to the motor for power? I am looking to do this over time as a project.

That paint quote is ridiculous don't pay that much for it. As for the motor I would recommend a 1jz swap. But thats spendy. But cheaper then the paint quote I did mine for under 4k. Or build u a na-t. Or probly cheaper to just buy a 7mgte and swap in. U didn't say if u wAnted to go turbo or not. But its hard to believe any one wouldn't want to.
