Hi all, saw this site mentioned in one of the jap mags recently so thought i'd check it out! I got me a Supra TT that i bought crash damaged a year or so ago, and it's nearly ready to go back on the road now. I was hoping to have it finished before the winter set in but hey, you know how these things go. I've done all the work on my own (bar the jigging) so it's weekends only. Got a few pics here, the first is the day i went to see it and the last is as it stands now....

Just got to paint the doors etc and then get it all together.
Mainly i want to go to Pod and do some runs, but also i really want to get to the Ring, as i never managed to make it there when i had my bikes.
See you at some meets in the mew year.

Thanks for the welcome. The spray booth was a crazy idea that me and my mate came up with when i was looking for somewhere to paint the supra. I knocked it up one saturday :-D I used to paint for a living, but don't have anywhere to do it.
I haven't got too much to do now, just need to find the time to paint the body panels and put it back together. So, hoping to have it on the road in the next month or two. Hopefully if everything goes ok and there's no problems with it, i'll see about squeezing a few more ponies out of it in the future.
