mrmantis

Thanks guys, already stripped it down and ordered some new parts.. the gearbox was filled chock a block full of Grease that can only be described as viscosity like Gum and looks like its been in there for years.. and the Centre Diff is shagged and completely locked up..but that will sorted soon. all around its a really nice example.. just need to find a body now :)

ye agreed mate, I had the Celica when much younger so that is my preference.. but the 959 will sit nice with my GR.B when restored.
