So I have wanted a supra for a long time now, and have spent some time looking for a decent one, but i decided to just buy a project car instead, and was lucky enough to find a supra... in fact two of them. They are both 1987 7mge, and standard, burgundy inside and out, but they both have issues. I have a friend going into the deal with me and we are getting them for $750 each, with some extra parts included like doors, winter tires on steelies, and some random parts like an alternator and a starter... and a set of awful 8 inch subwoofers lol.
We have already decided that I will get the targa Supra with 230000km on the engine, but in driveable condition, and he is going to take the other one, hardtop 220000km, but unfortunately not running. The current owner claims it ran when he parked it... of course lol, but its been sitting for quite some time.
I figure ill just drain the old gas in it, make sure the fuel pump is working, check the spark plugs and all of the fuses. Right now, the main goal is to just get it running, and then we will go from there.. ill post pictures as we go, but any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
