[TiGZ]

I sure will.

Well I'm leaving to go buy a camera nect time I reply the pics will be here promise

[25thcelica]

woot im excited :))) im about to wet myself.

[subspec]

Oh there's one thing I forgot. I know usualy there's little shock sensors inside the car. By the front bumper somewhere. If the airbag went off you probably are going to have to replace thos too.

[TiGZ]

Well here are the pics guys. Sorry I forgot to take pics before I bagged and taped everything Let me know what you think

[TiGZ]

Interior shot's I would say it's as clean as it came from factory (minus the small pieces of glass)
And sorry about posting them on so late, I had no way to upload them till now.

[TiGZ]

Couple more interior





Some junk in the truck



Anyone know how to remove these letters without scatching the paint?

[subspec]

Hey after looking at your steering wheel im pretty sure the airbag I have will fit. Ill sell it to you for like 20 plus shipping. The best way to remove the letters is to use a razorblade and water or a water and alchol mixture.

[TiGZ]

If your certain about it I'll send you the money order tomorrow let me know, and if you have the passenger side airbag that would be even better. And I'll try the razorblades tomorrow moring, thanks and let me know about the bag(s).

[subspec]

im about 80% sure it will fit, and if it doesnt your only out 20 bucks.. i dont have a passenger side airbag,. this airbag is out of my 5th gen and it looks like the steering wheel is exactly the same. and im pretty sure the razorblade thing will work, i use to work at a vynal shop placeing stickers on whatever, and thats what we use to work, and goo gone is a wonderful thing too. i forgot about that 1 lol

[TiGZ]

Lol, okay I'll see what I do tomorrow post pics of the outcome. And windshield is going in tomorrow (well later on today) as well.

If you like I can take a closer picture of the steering wheel and the deployed airbag in the steering wheel(top part) so you can be a little clearer about it.

poor celica. I hope you get it running well.

[TiGZ]

Definably getting it running, well it already does but yea I will return it back to it's most beautiful stage + more =). I love it, and my neighbor was kind enough to swap parkings, so now my Celi is behind some huge electrical fence , and in the parking lot that happens to be in front of my bedroom window.

Ugh I love this car, and so does my dad. Thanks to him I will buy all my parts on Tuesday so I can have it on the streets by the end of this week or sooner. (Depending if he has enough money in the bank ) By the end of the repairments of this car I will be in huge dept being that I had no money to being with since I put it all into repairing my Accord. So all the lend-ed money will pile up to this huge amount, but w.e, it's all for a good cause.

[25thcelica]

wow i really really like the red... im jealous. ill trade u my silver for your red haha.

[TiGZ]

Lol, I'll pass I love my color. Pics of updates tomorrow hitting up the junkyard for my baby's make over

[TiGZ]

Since I'm heading to the junkard tomorrow, I want to change the whole steeringwheel while I'm at it so will this be easy to remove and put on my car? What should I buy if I do just the steering wheel or the whole stick like thing thats connected to it? And what model brings this steering wheel? If not can I buy the Rav4 steering wheel or Corrolla S steering wheel?

Let me know please, I'm going over there tomorrow.

[alphaone001]

Any 6th gen should work. Bring the old wheel and compare/try to install it on the junk car if it's available to be sure.

You might need a puller, I don;t know. Try to google the removal. If you cant figure it out, I'll look it up in a manual.

[TiGZ]

Sorry I haven't been on guys I have no computer so my time is limited when I'm on now. SO yea I went to 9 different junkyards and not one had any parts for my Celica, blows. And the only place who had (but had to order it) was selling me just the inner lights for $175 ,outer for $245, and fogs for $190. JUst a bit too much for me, so I'm waiting on my friend that has some "people" that can get me "made in china" bumpers, but if you guys know where I can get them for cheaper let me know. No parts were bought. But anyway I got updates

This is my old broken bumper, its broke so I fgured I'm getting a new one later let me see what I can do with this one( there's more cracks then showed in the pics)







in progress of fixing but coming out half assed, to many broken spots that i didn't notice before I started fixing it.

[alphaone001]

That bumper doesn't look that bad. super glue and bondo is your friend.

I know what you mean about the junk yards. I have found only one so far, and it was a super gutted GT.

This just seems to be one of those cars they don't really put out there, or people aren't junking

[TiGZ]

oh yea.....I REPLACED MY WINDSHIELD

[25thcelica]

very nice. good start so far.
