I'm about to start a new build. I've chosen the Tamiya Toyota Celica. Better known as the T23 (or zzt230) version or the 7th gen 1999 celica. It will be built mildly modified. I'll be scratch building a bodykit for it, add some bigger wheels and some interior mods. I still think the Celica is a very cool car.
I'll start on this one asap.
This is the kit I'm using:

I got started on the celica. I've started messing around with the interior. I've started to build a roll cage and added some bucket seats. I'm still thinking about what color to paint the in and outside... Any suggestions???

where you from? because i got the resin body kit that was made for this moel celica...i forget who made it i think ScaleAutosports or somehtign like that.

Good start. Which direction do you think you're going to go with those wheels? I like the five spokes :) The buckets are awesome, what're they from? Where is that rollcage going in the rear? Usually that kind of cage ends at the rear strut towers or the rear subframe.

Nice, but I would lower the rear wing a tad lower. It's too high for the shape and flow of the car. A Trial version is pretty damn nice. Will be watching this build since I too have this kit.
