    The easy part of restoring a car in Cali other than finding parts is that you don't have any existing rusty cars, and that's what makes me jealous loll C ongratulations on your new acquisition, I already had this car in 1993 but yours is a whole other marvel ! You got a new subscriber !

      Yes the sticker was laying around the garage and the last owner put it on. I will have to order the right decal.

    The Celica is clean, clean Wow!! Great trade, but that 77 is sweet too, I'd probably keep the 77, but I understand the budget issue and wanting to have a vintage ride. I just got a 1984 Celica GTS coupe 5 speed. 👍

    • @touavlogs
      @touavlogs  Год назад

      I really had plans for the 77 but it was out of my budget and knowledge to get it going. With the trade It won’t take much to update on some parts on the Celica and have it ready for the show circuit in 2023 in my booth. But! The new owner of the 77 is a friend so it won’t be too far away and I will still get to see it.
      Congrats on your 84 Celica ! Hope to run across ya someday.

    Love the 85 celica gts, but 77 celica is collectible, especially that condition. For me, I wouldn't have traded because 77 celica is not coming around that often .

    • @touavlogs
      @touavlogs  Год назад +1

      Definitely the 77 Celica is a great car to own. I m glad it went to a good friend that will take time on it to make it nice. And I will have the opportunity to get it back later because he is the type of guy that likes to build things, finishes, gets bored, and then gives it back. Lols. We shall see more contents on this.

    Damn bro i can't believed you trade your 77 for a 85 celica. I know the 85 is nice and shine but the 77 is a rare unicorn. I know you have a lot of nice jdm collections and none of those really got any loved. I think instead of going show to gather your videos content I think you should pick one of your jdm car and transform into a piece of art. You can create your videos of how you fix up along the way. Just a thought.....

    • @touavlogs
      @touavlogs  2 года назад +2

      I know right?! It was a tough decision but It will free me up to buy a pre 1975 smog exempt celica. This way I can go all out and don’t have to worry about smog. California is just a terrible state for cars. I have been eyeing a 1973 Celica that one of my friend has and that one I will definitely put in the work since it will be smog exempt. I love the 77 lift back style and if I ever pick one up again, I know what to look for and probably start with a different platform. It was a learning experience and the next time will be better. I appreciate your comment, and looking forward to hearing from you again.

      You’re right, i need to pick one and do content instead of shows. I been planning. Just so darn hot in Fresno! Waiting till the weather to cool down a bit and I will be working on the S13 more often. I cannot wait to be outside and making contents.
