82 SR5 Sports Coupe in GA

Post by D3uc3s »

Just picked this up today. I was told this is the place to learn as I don't know too much about the 3tc.

Plans are to shave bumpers, install extra parts that came with the car(ae86 rack, 4-1 header), also gonna start looking for a Weber set-up and some suspension. Thanks for reading!
