Hi. I was one for the first ones back in the early 2000s to swap a St185 into a St162. The car is complete and needs to be finished. Snyder is my username on alltrac.net

The car has only ran like 5 hours in the last 4 years. most of its life have been indoors with no rust anywhere on it. I did leave it outside for 6 months last year because the wife wanted to park her car in the garage. I cracked the rear quarter panel when I was cutting the front yard and off it went back into the garage.

I am only looking for $2500 cash and this is the lowest I'll go for the complete car. I'd hate to part it out as I built this myself.

I've had 3 st165's and this is my last Celica. I will post some current pics this week.

Thanks!

Since I have been following this thread for about two years, I would like to see all around pics of the car myself. Maybe a youtube video of it starting, idling and the like.

Good morning, guys. I will get updated pictures of thecar this weekend and update this thread! Since getting married, then buying ahouse, then two daughters later, the car has been sitting in the garage mostof its life. There is not rot on the car and deserves to be finished. I crackedthe rear quarter panel window last year with a rock from cutting the frontgrass.

The car runs, but sounds like a valve is sticking from sitting so long. Lasttime I really drove the car was to a car meet in MD with Mafix and I think thatwas in 2008? The car dyno'd at 314 to the wheels with 14 psi.

The car is worth finishing. I did the complete swap myself. Since the car hasbeen sitting so long, I would go through the car and change all the oils,coolant, etc.....

The car is tough to start right now, because I think the AFM is sticking fromsitting. Last time I had it running was last summer. I had a local personlooking at the car and we got it going. There is a half a tank of gas sittingin it as well and I think that is a little of the problem starting as well.

Unfortunately, I lost total interest in it and would like someone to finish it.

I bought the car as my first car in 1996 and owned it since.

Thanks!

Chris
