    Hello all, just saying Hi to you other 162 members. I just recently got a hold of a 87 Celica GT runs great, only 155k on it. Body needs some work was from texas so texas hail go to her. Pics are on my profile page. Anything I should really look out for? Suspension will be replaced soon as well as Rack and pinion slight leak. The transmission has a zippy sound like a big zip tie being pulled tight every once and awhile but it happens at different RPM's. So yeah think that covers it.

    the leak is probably the high pressure hose for the power steering that's common on our cars. most likely new struts are in order? usually the fronts are always done for from previous owners it seems....wait for 187flatliner to talk to ya, he's also got an GT in blue in portland! well i think he crossed the river back to WA now, but he isn't that far from portland

    Welcome from the UK , Shadedfool. So did the hail cause those dents ?

    Yeah it did, in Texas they get golf size hail at times.
