Perseverance - She's Back
Saturday, October 27, 2012 5:07 AM
Well the flame was almost extinguished my will had faded and escaped from me 4 years had passed and they wilted away all that was left were memories of days I never lived. So I started once again to finish her and something great happen. This this morning (Friday) I had a last minute photo shoot to have her be used for advertizing in next year big car show and ads in magazines. So got her together in 2 days just to do this shoot and now shes heading back to the garage to finish her up. Im about 60% done and not even close to having the motor finished. Im still having a big issue with the ECUs talking to each other and the HKS Camp system as well. Hope you enjoy the photos..

Man blast from the past for sure. Good to see that thing still in great condition, just outdated now. Time for some updating

Not feelin it at all. Way too busy, like Brad said, circa 1990's. Not at all liking the wing,tails, and are those backup lights? looks mostly like an 03-05 center piece with tail light swap.

To each their own.

I do not think we will ever see this Toyota motor. I do not think it will ever run.

I like the orginal wheels better than your current ones. It would be nice to see the car actually out and about again.

I loved this car since day two, and probably always will, regardless of what's outdated and what isn't. And I'm very excited to own a piece of this car

Kudos....she still looks good.

A bit retro, yes. But, with a stock spoiler (circa 00-02) and the tails tinted/changed up a bit, she'll look more modern.

Love the paint and graphics...those should stay!

Besides, I wanna hear more about the go part....


Between this and the Reaper, I'm interested again...

Yes Darren, because we have a difference in opinion and taste. No one ever said that car didn't have a lot of well appreciated work into it. We simply stated our opinions on it's looks with our current taste. Get over that already dude. You've been around a whole hell of a long time to not get that in the car community, not everyone agrees, but a lot of people will voice their opinions, positive or negative.
