Project Undercover
Gonna be the start to a long story.....
1993 Tercel 3EE 4 Speed with actual working air conditioning!
My buddy Jimmy looks so happy with his new gift we found in it lol!

Straight up custom cup holder lol!
The 4efte from my 95 will be going into this. This car will appear to be total stock. No flashy wheels, super quiet exhaust system (cut out will be
added), get the dings/dents fixed, get some paint on it, fix interior, and drive it! I even have a spare intercooler that's painted flat black.
When this weather breaks I'll clean it up and post progress.

Looks to be fairly straight except for that passenger side door.
I think keeping the stock look is a cool idea......I like.

That will be the best sleeper ever.. are you going to buff the paint back to shiny?
That thing is as BASE as a base model can get, duct tape seat, awesome.
I'm sure it will be nothing but a breeze to get this done!

i would not TOUCH the exterior of the car leave it alone, put on corolla 14" steelies with hubcaps to get some better rubber but not call any extra
attention to it
paint w/e you do for the exhaust black too

me too. I always had this idea of having an amazing motor setup and a super ghetto exterior. I thought it would be pretty funny to enter it in a car
show like that with dirt hanging off the body and everything. You'd roll up and people would think you're nuts, but then you pop the hood and
everyone would get it.
I might still do that someday, actually...

Don't waste money painting it, good rubbing compound and waxing fairly regularly (once a month) and you've got more money in your pocket :)

Buffing it doesn't take those dents out and the roof definitely does.
