Interior is in pretty good shape but I need to fix the dashboard or get a new one as where the defrost vent is it's peeling back. I've got a new set of door cards on the way, a few trim pieces, HKS Coils. It's got a bunch of TRD parts already on it, TRD wheels but they're beat up so I wanna get those restored. Mine has 237000km has a r154 and 1jzgte vvti. It needs a full paint restoration, the bay paint matched and cleared, and dry ice blast everything.

    Hey, James! Great video about one of Japan's best sedans. I remember seeing one in Japan and the owner was blown away that I wanted to ride in his car. Luckily, he romped on it and that single turbo 1J was... Yeah, it was like being in a 2JZ Supra. Fast and I enjoyed it. The R33, GT-R was a better car.
    Back to the Chaser though. There's people building up Cressida cars in the USA like their Japanese counter parts. Same with the old Crowns. Thankfully, Toyota classic RWD cars have a large following in the USA. As, one day I plan to build another one of these cars.
    Thank you, Donut Media and team. (:

    i once ran over a what I thought was an abandoned chaser with my toyota tundra, which is an excellent candidate for one of these "up to speed" videos.
    It wasn't until much later, two winters after, I learned the car was inhabited by someone I knew as a child. He had moved long ago for forgotten reasons and I hadn't actually had thought of him in a nascent way since boyhood. Then suddenly I found myself learning of his tragedy and my complicity of it over a very brief run in with an acquaintance at a christmas party.
