a little background.

im 20 years old, but since i was about 7 i have wanted a toyota supra. the MKIV body style. it all started when my dad bout a playstation one and grand trismo. i watched him play that game day in and day out for so long. and finally he let me make a car. any car i wanted. i liked the way the supra looked so i chose it and that was my car, it wasnt until 2 years later that i realized that it was the coolest car i had ever seen. i still get all crazy inside when is see one on the road 11 years later.

im a college student and well right now im in no situation where i can own a supra but i figure if i learn now then why not and when i graduate ill be even that much closer to my dream.

by question though is there a way that you can take a MKIII body and replace the panels on it so that the body will look like a MKIV. im really not worried about how fast the car will go i just love the way it looks. i heard from someone that you can do this but i dont really trust their stories so i thought id just ask all of you people.

thanks for any advice or guidance.

and this is my first post, im totally clueless about the mechanics of the car or wether this is possible. so it if this is something that is a no brainer then please just cut me some slack haha.

Yeah, it could totally be done! Check out this link

On a more serious note, I don't think the body lines are anywhere close enough to make that work without some serious fab work. At that point, you may as well just buy a MKIV.
