Chasing a Chaser

Well, probably a Corona Mark II but they share many of the same features.  Toyota made the Chaser, Cresta and Corona all off of the same basic platform, with differences in the taillight shape and some other minor areas.  I'm saving to get one of these imported from Japan, pretty sure it'll be the only one in the country as far as I've seen.

Here's some shots of the Corona owned by Andy of Powervehicles.com which is one of the places I'm considering importing from.  They seem to be a pretty reliable source as well as being able to perform modifications in house.  That way I could get many of the modifications done that I want before the car even arrives.

Back in the flow of things

We're all fully recovered from those nasty viruses I mentioned the other day. Thankfully they were just the kind that last a couple of days.

I've setup ads on the blog. Sorry if they are too intrusive, however I could really use the extra cash to get towards my goal of a "fun car" sooner.

Not a lot else going on here, just getting back into the flow of things after the holidays and trying to get as much work done as possible, which is why this blog entry is going to end here.

But, for some visual goodness, here's an interesting S13 that I wouldn't mind buying. I'd have to ditch the hood though.

I'll be sick for Christmas....

And apparently New Years and beyond . Before Christmas I got a headcold that evolved to have a cough that I still have. Two days ago my fiancee and my son got a stomach flu and today I got it. I guess I was due tho, these are the 2 first real cold/viruses that I have had in 3 years or more.
