I got my 2nd FC a couple days ago for $1k, its a 86 se. everything is decent except for the taco size dent on drivers side fender and the biggest one that bugs me is the passenger door, its all bashed in but i can get it fixed. just thought id show u guys some pics, so enjoy!











oh yah, i decided to paint my rims black since i dont really care about them.

 

HOLY 4X4 BATMAN!!! Otherwise not bad at all for what you paid. How does it run? How many miles. Congrats on the find and welcome back!

 

That's not an SE. Hell, there wasn't even an SE in 86. There was a Sport (like mine)... but that's not what you have.

 

Its a 86 BASE. SE is what they called BASE in 88.

Mine is a 88 SE and looks exactly like yours. Except with some newer looks on the inside.

Im not a big fan of spray painted black wheels. Personally, they make the car look like a junker. I would spray paint them silver or aluminum or something.

I would also install a S5 radio and vent trim and get rid of the plastic crap that breaks even when new. They pretty much pop right in.

 

yah i should do more research, last owner TOLD ME it was an se so i dunnoz. the wheels r ghey, did them when i was bored i dont really care about them cuz im changing those rims anyway. but thx for the warm welcome =)

 

that car reminds me of my friends fc he just put into a tree

 

LOL, I love how you painted them while there were still tires mounted on them and they were on the car!

 

welcome

 

my passenger door is f*ed up and my hood looks bad and my car is 5 different colors and it doesn't run at the moment -__-. but welcome back ^_^

 

Welcome back!

Buy my rims!

 

FCking - the car has roughly 200k miles on it and it runs great! but theres a minor oil leak i found, if u look under where the battery is and look up a little theres a leak, dunno what it could be. will take a pic of it later.


masonrx7 - im not really into those kind of rims sorry, im looking for some mesh wheels like the good ol BBS ones.


i took a trip to the junkyard earlier and picked up some parts including a lip from an old school celica. i did this to my old FC so it should look nice on this one aswell. i will post pics when im done.

heres a pic of my old FC i had back in 2003-2005:

 

installed my lip today , keep in mind the lip was from an old school celica so it wasnt made to fit FC's. but ive done some fabbing and i tried to do my best to fit it properly. enjoy! =)










(yah bish im from the LB, got a prob? lol j/k)

 

for some reason i like that color for s4's. nice car.
you want some rims???

 

The leak is coming from the oil lines. Change them now or else you'll be sorry. I just fixed mine, they are kinda a PITA to do. Get some aftermarket stainless steel braided lines.

-maniac

 

can you take some better pictures of that lip and find out what year celica that was from. it looks decent!!

 

the lip looks good man. Can you take some pics from the side to see what it looks like?

 

can i have the part number or something? i wanna make sure i get the right ones in terms of size. also what do i have to remove toget to the lines? waht was the part that was the most PITA?



i will take more pics later of the lip. i found it in the junkyard for 7 bucks lol.

u need to find the 86-89 celica, its a 3 piece lip :

 

As mentioned, SE wasn't that far off. Both the 86 Base (what you have) and 87-88 SE were the low end models. Just wanted to clear it up for you.

I'm from Knoxville but I don't post stupid *** stickers on my car that advertise it.

 

i like stickers cause ima ricer, and i love representing where im from =)

 

some side shots of the lip for those who requested them, kinda dark pics sry bout that but ill take some tommorow in the day.

 

personally i would've offered 600.00 maybe 700.00 for this car tops.

 

What's that on the driver's side interior door panel near the arm rest? Nice find

 

its a small speaker.

 

You stole my car! (Not really, but damn it looks the same. Similar damage even.)





The rims are Duplicolor Rim Paint, Graphite Gray.

 

I like it... it doesnt require too much body work... those dents dont look too bad.
