My Revised '80's Thrashbox

[OnBail]

Hi fellow AE86 proud owners.
Good to see the strength of the 86 on your side of the planet doing well.

So far I am on my 3rd AE86 now (2nd one in Japan) and I ended up with this.

It's still not where I really want it so it's still a work in progress.

I'm sure that some here might have already seen my car on other forums from past and recent.
