Salvage title, ugly as sin, has glittery black paint, stock front bumper thats split, cheapo depot side skirts and rear bumper... Needless to say, it needs WORK...

Im a toyota tech in bossier la..

So far, k&n drop in filter was oil soaked, so had to clean the maf- car ran like crap.

Alignment was WAY off ( cruise switch was at 11 oclock) so alignment.

Replaced the tires

Upper radiator hose was bulging, replaced and used the red toyota coolant instead of the green that was in there.

Fixed the evap leak

Zip tied the front bumper to the radiator support - lmao

Gonna be putting it on a frame machine in a few days...

Welcome to the forums. Hearing the condition it is in, there is no need for pics. I might get sick. Do post pics when she's all fixed up. Good luck and happy modding!
