Good luck...Starting from scratch is not eazy,and you need to do a lot
of work. But at the end you'll be happy with the outcome:biglaugh:

Will it be a 1jz mk3 drift car? or race car?...street racing:sarcasm:?:biglaugh:

Now thats a project! Good luck.
My advice would be: Strip it and have it painted first, it is harder to have a car painted that is already built, and you don't have to worry about the shop taking it out for a joy ride ;)
