Yeh, absolutely I laid down a protective wax polish w a hand buffer. Probably one of the reasons my 20 yr old paint job still looks like it does.
But frankly I'm OK w the way it is, after all those yrs its all ready done its job

I washed my SC. I still need a new alternator so I can drive it but at least it looks good.

It's been much too long since I've seen photos of this car. Keep 'em coming!

I’ll try and keep ‘em coming! Do you know the car from before I owned it? You said it’s been too long…?

Ah, I may have mistaken your car for another on here. Regardless, she's gorgeous!

Did you sell your other cars? I saw the LS’ missing from your signature. 😮

No sweat. Thanks for the kind words! I’ll update when I’ve got my wheels and suspension done.

Before and after. **** is the steel CR style from Shift Solutions Co. Learned my lever was hacked off with a saw at some point in the past and the old wooden **** from Toyota was actually quite heavy and countersunk. Nonetheless, the slight weight difference, shape, and appearance are upgrades to me!

Bought a low mileage 95 300 that OD + High gear wasn't working on. Shipped my 95 ECU out to a guy I met on FB. He cleaned and recapped the board for me. Had multiple leaking capacitors. Promptly returned, got it buttoned back up in the car last night. Car started and ran good (it did before too). I'll try and get it out on the road today to see if I have a working OD and high gear.

edit: works amazing, flawlessly. $100 + 1 way shipping for this full service on the ECU. I don't think I could've gotten this done cheaper elsewhere. On top of that he also has a '95 and tested my ECU in his car for me! gonna send him my '92 ECU now :-) I have a suspicion the oil pressure light ive seen the entire cars life with me wont exist anymore
