Tell me about...
Hesco Birmingham done the head (and re checked it) they also, after machining assembled the bottom end. I was originally planning on doing the bottom end but last min I backed out and let them do it.

I contacted the seller and he claims to have a clean Michigan title on it. i hate that hes pushing for a track car though :nono:
If i had that much extra $ I'd buy it, but...
Or even worse... The guy who bought my first supra lost it in a nasty divorce and his ex wife flipped it in "malfunction junction" (I-65 @ I-20/59 in downtown Birmingham. and her wreck made me late for work..... see if i hadn't sold it none of that would have never happened and there would be 1...

Jeremy, Welcome to the family. Sounds like you have a pretty good start. and by the way - The love of Supra NEVER goes away! between my first Supra and my current Supra there was a 8 year void where i didnt own one .......but i thought about them every day.....mainly regreting that i sold it in...
It's not being self centered either! We have all put in the massive amount of work it requires to be a "Proud Supra Owner" So we're just proud of ourselves, along with fellow Supra owners. It's like an unwritten bond.
