Hi

Well ive been hanging around here for a month readin and searching and never posted. Well today i finally joined the ecomodder cult and purchased a 91 tercel 4 speed manual. Shes a good lil car, has 200k on her when I got her today, clutch was replaced 7k miles ago and she shifts good, slight head gasket leak that i can see but nothing major were its leaking bad, def needs a tune up since she idles kinda rough.

Plan is to gut the inside with exception of the drivers seat, remove the ac, power steering I think was an option in this car cuz she doesnt have any. Do a cheapo paint to her the 50 dollar way, pizza pan the wheels, get new tires. All in all for 900 bucks with a 400 stereo to me is a win so I cant complain, i love the idea of putting 20 bucks in and it filling the car 3/4, im use to my bronco that you have to put 120 to fill up.

Ill be snapping pics and keeping you guys updated on her progress as I get more into her.
