guys,

this is the most recent updates tht i have. so they started to do some jobs like taking the rusted floor pan out.
The project started with tackling the floor pan first, and the 2nd step is to make the whole front together with the main chasis.

All the parts for exterior work shall arrive here in Malaysia somewhere next Wednesday or Thursday..till then, have a look at all these pictures...thanks for your support again guys!!:shades_smile:

and finally, this is the latest collection that i am goin to add in to my garage...

Celica, the TA22 liftback model...believed u would have saw it in MotorTrader recently..talking to the owner on how to ship it back from Sabah now..

Why?...this model of celica was once the " Pony from the East" as compared to the " Mustang from the West"..so the said..
Compare the below pictures and u might agree with it...and tht's wht i will try to make it look like later..:shades_smile:

compare this:
