Another Member from California

Post by yellowsnow4free »

Hello 86garage.com community!

Idk how long I've been a member here, probably about a year, but I've never introduced myself! :P

I bought my AE86 SR5 a little over a year ago and I absolutely love it, 4AC and all :)

At the moment I'm just planning on restoring everything I can on it, plus minor mods :)

Hey guys, sorry for the late reply (I didn't think I'd get pic requests here :P)

As requested:

And I'm basically going for a stock restoration, at least aesthetically :snicker:

Thanks guys! :-D

It was actually repainted by one of the previous owners, but yes, the car is very clean (particularly the interior).

Around both rear wheel wells I found some places with minor rust that a previous owner "fixed" (crappy welds + bondo :|) But once I get a decent job I'd like to get the sections repaired properly and possibly repaint it the original silver metallic color (the other side of the car needs some bodywork, and some sections of the paint are pretty scratched).

But for now I'm fixing what I can and working with what I've got :tu:
