Old But New To Here

Post by villerat »

Hello 1stGenCelica

I just got me an 77 celica GT coupe and this is mot my frist one. My frist one was a 77 celica ST coupe with an auto, back in the late 90's. Now that I have new 77 I'll be making up for lost time .. back in the 90's I always wanted to see the 77 with an V8 under the hood. yes I'm look to do a ls400 swap in a year or two. My plan is to get the new 77 up and driving for my DD car so I can start work on the Mk2, Its time to get the supra in to the body shop :D so how about some photos

had just got it back home

Stock steering wheel looks to be in decent shape, may just need a leather wrap around the outside and the center piece if you don't still have it. Keep it! Off and on I've looked for a replacement steering wheel, something that doesn't look after-market and a bit more modern. I don't think you can beat the stock GT steering wheel for looks.

Keep up the progress pics, we love that stuff!

yea the wheel looks good .. thinking, I will send it off soon to have re-wrap but for now I'll keep the supra wheel on.
Also for some updates, I have some friends show up with parts :D

So Mark and Rusty help find that I points where off, so Mark had an Electronic Distributor with Ignition Coil to go with it. so we swap that in and hit the key and fired right up :woot: :cheers:

so after that we went and played with the supra's

Welcome :wave:

Lots of new members from WA. Hopefully next year when they have that Puget Sound Toyota meet all the new people will be there, and I can get my car back on the road to come down.

:cheers:
Pete
