thank you. it runs awesome. im about to get the power steering working on it; its a biotch trying to park. i would have done it already but ive had a lot going on between work, getting my dd on the road, getting ready for college, and just being lazy...

ill have to take some pics of the inteior, its so clean. it burgandy, at first i was planning on changing it because it just not a pretty color. but after taking all the parts out and vacuuming it out, omgz, its so freaking nice... that ugly red wears on ya... so in short i decided not to change it... yet

Hahaha, at first I hated the color too but now, like you said, I'm getting used to that "ugly red"

tyvm

my plans for the next year:

1. paint job- stock toyota white, maybe with some pearl or metal?
2. 89+ plastic moldings - i hate the metal ones, rust ftmfl
3. rims - something cheap for now, mkiv tt's or some other 5/6 spokes
4. keep it clean and running good

last night i drove it for about ~70miles no problems what so ever. my speedo dont work so i investigated it some yesterday and it would appeare my lower cable it broke, so time to look for one, actually two, need one for the 88 also...
