Hello from Florida!

Post by ktothec »

Hello everyone! My name is Kasey and I am from Pensacola Florida. I fell in love with the 1st gen celicas when I was browsing the internet and came across the top secret celica and I decided i had to have one! at the time I was driving a 74 plymouth duster which was great but killer on gas and there was just something about that celica styling that I couldnt resist! I decided to sell the duster and get a celica. I had found one I wanted and tried for a quick sale but it was gone before I got I so I bought a 240sx for the time being. after a year i found another one for 1800 and quickly sold my 240sx for 2000 so i could get it. best decision ever! its still under construction and a long way from finished. thanks to the huge inspiration of seeing speedfreak426 setup I went with a 7mgte swap!

ill post a couple pics as soon as I can!

Greg is in Crestview, Florida just down the road, you should hook up with another lift-back owner in the area, welcome to the site. I left Fort Walton Beach, Florida several years back but know your area really well. Not many first gen's in your neck of those woods....lol.
