Middle of the USA

Post by 86boy »

My name is Chris. I seen my first corolla about 5-6 years ago in a video, and thought it was a sweet ride. I finally found one and bought it Dec. of 2009 with a blown engine for $500. Bought an MR2 for 425 swapped the engine and have been driving it since.

It's a 1985 Corolla GTS liftback. So far I've put in an ACT clutch and BC coilovers, and soon a 4agze/w58 that I picked up for $975. It's a sweet car all stock, but I just needed a little more than stock, as that's all I've owned.


Short sweet little info about me and the car. I'll post up pictures later. So Hello everyone!

lol it's not too bad... the kid I bought it from had it painted for like $100. No body work... no rust prevention... so ya my doors are starting to go pretty bad, and a little rust on the rear fenders and part of the hatch. I know I have some other pictures, but I just moved all my files around on my computer. Fail on my part haha.

Received the 4agze too btw.
