It's officially underway.
I am now the proud owner of a wrecked '87T Targa.
The car has been hit on the passenger side rear quarter. The previous owner replaced the broken suspension parts in hopes
of repairing it, but abandoned the project.
The car is in otherwise very good to excellent condition. '87T with Targa, ABS, TEMS, maroon leather interior (In
excellent condition)
I will be taking the 7M-GTE, AFM, intercooler and R154 transmission, plus ECU and wiring harness. I'll probably also take
the gas tank, or at least the fuel pump, and probably the fuel sending unit, since mine doesn't work. ^_^
I'm also taking the fenders, since they're in much better condition than mine.
That leaves anything else open to offers. The targa roof looks to be in great shape, Maroon on maroon. The original
Toyota targa tool is in the glove box. The rear part of the interior is somewhat rough, but the rest of it is in good
shape.
I bought a complete gasket set, and timing belt, because I want to take care of those before I put the engine in. This
way, I have a known base to start from. I'm not sure if I'll have the time to replace the valve stem seals, but I'd like
to if I can.
I'm also a bit concerned with mating the '87 engine wiring harness to the '89 chassis wiring harness. (At least mine is an
early model '89, so there's hope!) I'm sure I'll find a way.
