New to CL-94' Gs300 now and the future
Well i earlier this week i purchased a 1994 Gs300, with 171,777 miles for 1700. its in pretty bad condition but im working on restoring it.
pics:
plans for this car are:
Going to get body work tomorrow, then paint later on down the week
then new interior, redoing the stereo system (previous owner cut up the harness in every possible way), new ashtray, driver side fog light, driver side door trim.
I'm planning on painting it a very very dark blue. then maybe in a few months, dropping it on some coils and getting some Fn01rc's in titanium bronze (havent seen that done yet)
BTW can anyone help me on the offsets for the FN01rc's i want the rears to have that concaved look.
UPDATES!

Welcome to Club Lexus!
Looks like you got alot of work cut out for you. How's the engine? Hopefully that's in good machanical condition. Anyhow, best to luck with your restoration. Make sure you keep us updated on your progress
Not sure what you mean by 'concaved' look. Are you looking for a conservative, moderate or aggressive set-up?

yep thats what i mean, im in love with those wheels haha. but the engine is in pretty good condition, except for a small exhaust leak its pretty quiet and smooth. as for the backseat, from what i've heard about the previous owner he was a tweaker so im guessing its some kind of burn
