Atropine's AW-11 Build
As many of you know...I was recently given the green light by the wife to buy another Sports Car.
I struggled with my choice...at first it was a Cayman S, then a Lotus Exige S.
After both of those deals fell through, I started to look for a Supercharged MR2 on a whim.
You see, I have owned 2 AW-11 MR2s in the past and I lament ever getting rid of them.
Well, I found what I think to be a pretty good platform MR2 to build off of.
It is a Supercharged 1989 AW-11.
2 Owner car...first owner owned it for about 6 months...the second owner has owned it the last 25 years.
I plan on doing a mild "build" on it.
The start of this will be me getting it into good/better working order.
I will try to include PICS and stuff like that.
I know a lot of people don't like seeing "Car Washes" in build threads...but this car really needed some TLC.
If you like what was done and want to know how I did it, just reply in this thread and I will reply.
OK...here are some Pictures.
PLANS:
I will first get it clean and more mechanically sound. Hoping to learn how to do more stuff to the car myself.
I will do upgrades once the weather changes to cold and rainy...
