IT'S ALIVE !!!

○ Hey guys , whats up ?

○ So , in the past few days I kinda got caught up with the Supra and I kinda forgot to sleep overnight , but I took the engine out , took it apart and then cleaned it , I've even worked on the interior and all that... Anyway , here are some pics of the engine before taking it apart...







○ And then I began taking it apart and cleaning everything...







○ Everything was in good condition because the engine wasn't even started since 1996 and I'm kinda glad that I didn't have to buy new parts to get the engine started...

○ After putting everything back onto the engine I placed it back in the engine bay...



○ After filling the engine with some oil I hooked everything up and then came moment that I've been waiting for since I got to put my hands on this thing... that's right , starting the engine...



○ And voilà ! It lives !!! Well , at first , there was some smoke coming out of the exhaust but after keeping it running for about 10 minutes it all went away ! Man , such hype for this :doge: !!!

○ I cant wait to drive the Supra but it still needs a whole lot of other parts...

○ Anyway , thats kinda all for the engine now , lets get see the interior...

○ I was quite surprised that my custom made carpets came in earlier than I expected , so I had to put them in the car and see how they look... These carpets were supposed to arrive on 29th but I dont know how they managed to get them here before the 29th... I paid about 1500V$ (164,323.26 yen ) for them + shipping , and I gotta say , they're really nice and soft...





○ As I expected , the carpets suited the chassis perfectly , and then of course I got impatient and mounted the rest of the interior parts in...



○ Ahh , finally , the interior is all nice and clean and it doesn't smell like mouse crap anymore... This was quite a huge step for me because the interior was one of the most difficult jobs to do on this car... I'm so glad that the car is getting closer to getting finished ! Well , it still needs some other body parts and other stuff , but hey , we gettin' there !

○ So , thats kinda all that happened in these past days , I also need to get some sleep cuz I stayed up all night to work on the Supra , and I can proudly say that its coming along nicely !

○ Here's a little list I made which contains the things that I need to do before it's finished :


○ Let me know if I missed anything on that list !

○ Anyways , thats all for now , I'll see ya guys around !
