I can finally live up to my handle!
Wow, what a day yesterday. I get a call from a friend of mine and he says " Hey, this kid that is at my house said that he was just at A-1 auto and they had a TT supra smashed there that they just got" I say BS, becuase this place is in a town with a population of 1968 people. So I call and they say " yeah we just got it in this morning" I was like OH MY GOD! I didn't belive them so I drove out there to witness this for myself.
I get there and I see this DEMOLISHED Supra sitting there, I mean NOTHING looks salvagable on the car, not even the interior, it was rained in since the top was RIPPED off. The moment of truth.. I pop the hood.. I hear the angels singing in the background OhooOHoohoOOHHHHHH... 2JZ-GTE! 6-SPEED WOOOOO.
I walk inside and ask how much.. they said a VERYYYYY good price so I had to buy it. Lets just say I got the Motor/tranny/ecu/uncut harness/driveshaft/motor and tranny X-members for half of what people normally pay. I get the motor next Wednesday so I will have pics and stuff for everyone!
I am still in shock that this just happend. So now my handle is actually TRUE.

hehe thanks for the positive feedback! My house is a junkyard. I have no money, I just came across some unpassable deals lately and couldn't pass it up.. low interest credit cards are my friend lol. I will keep everyone posted on the status. I will probably put it on a stand and modify it as much as I can untill March 04 then put it in for next summer.
