Default JDMmuscle's Build history thread (TOONS of pictures)

Hey guys, I was going threw some OOOOLD photos and i was amazed at how the SC used to look, so i figured id share some of them with you
I hope this is ok mods, just thought some of you who are good friends with me on here would find this interesting

So heres a little story of my car life....

I started out at 15... i had been into the VIP/bippu car scene for a few years, thanks to friends and my father

I got his hand me down 1996 toyota Camry and i worked with what i had
i had always loved the LS's and GS's so i tried to mimic and work with what was available to me. I did all my own work and spent HOURS online learning how to paint and do body work








Hey at 15-16 I wasnt doing that bad.... :duh:

Then at 17 i landed a job in Atlanta at a bodyshop dealing with only high end exotics

It's not an issue out in NV. Now I am trying to find a Roof Mount Spoiler to complete my exterior mods. I want to keep it clean on the outside and no body kits.
