Default New project! SC300 5 speed

I just pick up a 1992 SC300 5 speed.. body is in good shape need a new paint job and interior is kinda rough... not 100% sure what I wanted to do with it yet.... i got few other project cars that i almost finish so i will start this one pretty soon Might need some help from you guys since I'm not a expert in SC. Wish me luck!

it is just a stock sc300 now..it should look kinda diffrent in couple of months.. i took the stock wheels out put some VS-XX on it to roll around temporary... I order few bit and pieces from Japan and hopfully they work on my car.. I only plan on putting OEM and QUALITY parts on this thing(no ghatto ***** for me) so hopefully it will look nice when it is done.. here is a pic of the car now

no offense to the SC300 but id much rather have a 1992 GMC Typhoon signature... as you do haha those things are rowdy and fun... buddy upgraded his to some insane power. coming out of the hole spinning in an awd suv with wide ZO6 wheels is just too sexy
