# Zero : You could make custom mounting brackets from the sheet metal also.

Maybe i'll do that. But it takes up a shitload of time to fabricate the brackets

# Sleepin mOnkey : Sandblast is the easy way to remove rust and have an good view of what is needed to be done at all the car

Yup, I did that this morning. Sandblasted all the interior and luckily there was no major rust problems

Sandblast the shit out of the Supra

This morning I went full crazy and sandblasted all the rust from the interior of the car. There was a lot of surface rust but there was no major rust spots that eat up the integrity of the car. Removed all the logos and sold the Panasonic Supra radio for 60V$.

Also, I got myself from a junkyard a door for 120V$, the right rear-view mirror for 30V$ and rear taillight for 75V$. Also I had to get a new battery to start up the car.

When I started the car up, it was loud AF, that's because it doesn't have a exhaust pipe. The turbos are weak, so I can't wait to replace them with a single turbo kit. The turbo kit will arrive today around 2-3PM.

Here's the result of the sandblasting



And this is the ugly yellow door I got



And a pic of the engine, cuz why not





After this, I will start making a rollcage as I bought the tubes yesterday.

Finances
+60V$ Sold the Panasonic Radio
-120V$ Junkyard door
-30V$ Junkyard Rear-view mirror
-70V$ Junkyard taillights
-50V$ New battery
Money left: 18040V$
