Mod's are:
Molded in fog lights cut out for LED's
Doors cut off
Door panels cut off
Hatch cut off with glass cut just like the real supras
I'll put a LED system in this car with 6 led's.I'll have 2 LED's for the headlights 2 LED's for the taillights and 2 LED's for the fog lights with 2 switches for the fogs and then the other 4.
Ill have to remake the rear of the interior out of styrene sheet so it is correct. Enjoy everybody,Im gonna make history! (not really but still)

HEY JAYMES! you got that pic still? Photobucket says its unavaible! Id love to see it!
Its been awhile since ive worked on this! I thought id whip this out yesterday and i started to scratch build the back half of the car since its now a opening hatch you can see alot more than the kit wanted you too. I started by chopping the stock back half off the interior tub.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture177.jpg
Thats what it would look like if i left it the way the kit is.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture169.jpg
After chopping i made sides for the rear out of styrene sheet.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture170.jpg
I cut out the wheel arches.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture171.jpg
Glued them on and adjusted.

It wont look like a real supra so understand that,but it will look like somebody took sheet metal and wanted to clean it up a bit while keeping a good look. Which is what im into,It still would hide all the wires and keep cargo from moving but it would look good and be lighter than all the carpet and other stuff. I still have to build the floor pan and other things to clean it up but i will keep you posted!
Oh! and rims! i might use these.....

Unless i can find some stock saw blades to replace them.

Cool!
That's the only kit I could think of that has a semi-gutted interior, and doesn't come with a set of stock wheels, though I like the kit wheels.

Well when we left off this morning i needed to build a peice to connect the rear shock towers and have something to mount the rest of the peices around.

After a few trail and error peices i came up with this.

Looks simple but im no hiroboy or tonio so it was pretty damn hard for me.I made a templant for the floor of the trunk area out of a peice of paper i no longer need.

Wow man thats a nice project. You got some guts cuttin up that MK3 like that. But, its really turning out nicely.
This thing is gonna look crazy when done. Any idea on the color yet?
Hope the LEDs turn out. Maybe you can get them to look like this. :naughty:

lol That would be awesome.
Since this is semi on topic:
Heres a pic of my MK3 when bought. Fully loaded 90T with a340e->r154 conversion. Blew its gasket a month later. Never bothered with the rims (light, good tires) and never got around to anything else. Enjoy.

Update time YAY!!!!!!!!!! :grinyes:
I started today by cutting the 1 peice molded windows off so i could make the door windows look like they were rolled halfway down and life like.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture229.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture230.jpg
After i cut them apart i cut some off of the side windows and off the top to see how they would look.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture234.jpg
After i was done with the windows i noticed the dash looked kinda funky box stock. You can see in this old pic that the extended the glove box and driver side down all the way to the foot well. Seeing as that is not life like i cut those parts off!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture235.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture236.jpg
So now the car has foot wells and not walls blocking them!
I think thats all for today thanks everybody for the comments and stay tuned!

shouldnt say these things i just stripped my silent night mk4 and put it all in the parts bag so i got 1 but i wouldnt do that i already have a mk3 with engine detail so this detail is what is gonna make this stand out.

Woot woot update time!!! I made hinges for the hatch today!
I started out with the metal from a sparker handle. Small enough, Bendble, Easy to correct a wrong bend perfect for hinges!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture277.jpg
I bent some up and made some hinges!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture278.jpg
I also used .100'' evergreen rod.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture279.jpg
I took the smallest drill bit i had,
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture280.jpg
And i drilled a hole in to the rod.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture281.jpg
So i can slide the hinge end into it.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture282.jpg
After i copied the hinge design for a second hinge i glued the hinges to the glass for a test fit.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture283.jpg
Then i glued the rod with the hinges inserted in them into the car.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v259/SupaMan89T/Picture284.jpg
After the rod dryed into place i pulled the hinges off of the glass so i could paint the bodyand do more work.

Thats all for today Thanks everybody!
