TA28 "Zaleha"

Post by ibnukamil »

Assalamualaikum & Hi from Malaysia!

Registered for a while and finally today im going to introduce my self :D and pardon me for my horrible english

my birth name is Muhammad Fikri Bin Mohd Kamil or you guys can call me Ibnu/Ibnu Kamil, aged 22 (2013).
This Toyota Celica TA28 is my first car that was given to me by my dad as my daily drive :). As a student, I dont have the sufficient money & time (i think so) to restore her to her factory condition but for the sake of love for her, ill try my best to restore/resto-mod her to "almost" perfect mint condition. it may take my whole lifetime but let say it is an investment as these type of car are getting harder to finds and i believe in 10-20 years to come this car will be extremely valuable as on of the iconic japan tin :D
Brought into our family on 28th of October 2011, "Zaleha" had gone suspension upgrades & engine swap, thanks to my dad for helping me financially.
Currently, she is driveable but still need some tuning & repairing. As for the parts, the progress is a bit slow (painfully slow) but im already started collecting parts for future restoration.

Are those fenders just rolled or are they just well molded?
