I know it's a Toyota Celica, but i'm not sure which generation.
The steering wheel and auto shifter were what gave it away:

So that's what happens when you put the engine in the front of a 911! Can you imagine what the weight ratio would have been on that configuration?

911 theft recovery + rolled Celica = Toyoche Carelica.

I knew I had seen that car before!!!

Makes you wonder if whoever built that thing had sprung for real brakes, if it would have been able to miss what it hit rolleyes.gif shades.gif
Mike D.
YEP, Celica GT. And it hit something HARD. It looks odd in the before crash pic above. Some of the welds, that I could see, were done very well. But yeah, why?!?

The yard is loaded up with cash for clunker cars. So if your looking for FI to modify, now is the time.

wow.. that car is so bad that it's good..

Back in the very early '80 when I was young, dumb and poor, I thought this would be super cool.
Now I know why you're poor when you're young and dumb. smile.gif

Anybody got a pic of the 911 from "Bachelor Party" with Tom Hanks? Andy needs to add that one to his BUPP (Butt Ugly Porsche Picture) collection.

Seriously?? I think I've been struck blind.

No, I WISH I'd been struck blind. I actually can still see those damn things.

Wow, if I ever thought the 914 was less than beautiful, all I had to do was see your last two posts, Andy. Whew, that last one ... with the lights ... it reminds me of the one time I looked at a website like "something awful" dot com and had nightmares for weeks.

That's just the header collector that then connects to the down-pipe.

Is that really built on a 914? Kind of like the Neo914 but without taste... Still, I'm morbidly curious to see pictures of the rest of it...

I'm not crazy about the wing, but other than that I think that car looks pretty sweet.

Dammit you guys are going to make me take a pic of the abortion sitting at my friends shop. It's a " DP 935 " straight out of 80's Miami. barf.gif Looks like this but in white. I'll try to remember to take a couple pics tomorrow.

We need a site like this to collect these rare examples of the manifistations of someone's dreams, or maybe nightmares. Be careful of what you dream for. I wish I could find that 914 on Craigslist that was made to carry a float, it would fit right in.

Someone here actually bought it and was going to restore it ...
