i bought the car back in 2005 when i was 15 lol, got it for cheap as it had driven on horse and looked bad, but me and dad fixed it, we are both body mechanics, work with dented cars every day

Woah, that is some amazing work that you and your father have done to the car. I wouldn't have thought it was possible having seen the first few pictures of the damage it had.

[Leadfoot[YT]]

THAT's awesome! +Rep for all the work/documenting/narration/sharing. :)

 

-Leadfoot

[T1M]

Wow, thats fantastic! Would have never guessed it was ever in the state it was when you first got it judging by those later pictures. I must say, I love the colour, and I think the rims suit it well. ;)

 

+rep

[cis4care]

Whoa! Now that's real talent, people.

 

How's the car?

[t.]

That's fantastic, both the work you've done and the documentation of it. Definitely +rep!

[khevolution]

But all the same congrats to you and your dad, and see the end results pics is not helping my current craving for a decent spec MR-2 for a bit of summer motoring

[CarMadMike]

Wow, That's an amazing restoration, great work, it looks rather nice :)

[TIMELESS]

:drool: Amazing work you guys did.. and that colour is just awesome. I don't know much about MR2s... is that the 3SGTE engine?

[Lambo91]

Very COOL! i wouldn't have thought u guys would fix that car from looking at the damage..if that was here..it'll be scrapped..Lol..but anyways u won't even get a chance to see a horse here, let alone driving into one..LOL..horse only belongs in the Zoo..

 

very nice color..and very nice work!! enjoy it.

[Haffi_Turbo]

:drool: Amazing work you guys did.. and that colour is just awesome. I don't know much about MR2s... is that the 3SGTE engine?

Whoa! Now that's real talent, people.

 

How's the car?

 

car is great, i must say after 240k miles pulling this hard as it did, it will be awsome with the new turbo, witch is small tho :(

[EW]

Wow stunning work! Congrats

[Haffi_Turbo]

Very COOL! i wouldn't have thought u guys would fix that car from looking at the damage..if that was here..it'll be scrapped..Lol..but anyways u won't even get a chance to see a horse here, let alone driving into one..LOL..horse only belongs in the Zoo..

[killalldude]

That paintjob is amazing. Maybe you should hop across the pond and paint my car!

[TIMELESS]

My avatar picture would probably prove that I agree xD

[KoenigseggBG]

You and your dad have done a truly amazing job to this Toybota. :)

 

Great job! I hope you have many and many nice drives on it and don't forget to drive safe.

[H4milton]

3SGTE FTW!!!!!!!!!!

[Ryzza5]

Good job. Is the horse all shiny and new now as well? (Maybe not)

[Mb]

Nice work. :)

[GTAMADDOG]

I'll repeat what some people have said about and say that colour is brilliant.

 

Looks so subtle (for lack of a better word) for what it is/will be, this is what I like modified cars to be like. Loads of power, but looks pretty much standard on the outside, give some people a nasty suprise.

[Wayfearer]

I'm speechless! Amazing work on that car, i hope you can get the best out of it and the color suits the car perfectly! :drool:

[Haffi_Turbo]

thanks all, the color is from a 1997 lamborghini diablo 25th anniversary if i remember

[carlos_69]

Nice build man. That was a perfect repair, the car is awesome to.

BTW the color is from the Countach 25th anniversary.

[ScoobSTi]

Omg amazing job! I didn't even think it could've been repaired at first, since the title said My MR2 and all I saw at first was a hunk of steel and metal ran over by a horse.

[jimmybob2k9]

amazing looks great!!
