jonnygt Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) I couldnt resist a starlet yet again! Picked up this little beast for a bargain price of £380 english dollar...Came with tax and test untill november which is not too bad, it also came on standard starlet alloys instead of steels which is a bonus.It did need a passenger side driveshaft which is now sorted, and also a drivers door handle and speedo cable...but not too much to worry about. It also needed a good clean and polish on the outside but thats sortecnow aswell, i was surprised how clean and tidy it is! Ive added some 14" speedlines for now, but these will be getting changed soon! Heres a little pic for now, ill get some more pics later Thats when i got it How it is now Many plans to come!

jonnygt Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Decided to re-colour my door cardsto match in with my glanza interior and mats etc....hated the gay flower style pattern on the standard interior!I removed the door card, masked it all up and set away with the black fabric paint.Easy a 10min job and actually turned out class! Looks 100 times better and just sets the cockpit off a treat....i had only 1 tin of paint so another is on order for the other side.Cant wait to finish it off and then treat myself to a nice steering wheel and gearknob Also ordered a cheeky GAB sticker to match my coilys Enjoy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonnygt Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Also, got a tax disc holder from toyota, so i thought id get the horrible old stuck on thing off the window. Pulled it off and it left the glue all over the window so i set about it with tar and glue remover! Job done, got my new holder on in place, just looks much better and neater. Not much but i love the little details and add ons.Its getting there slowly but surely, more updates soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
