Default Jack is back with another Lexus Sc300

Alright! I'm back with another Sc300. This time No more crazy widebody etc.

So I picked this Sc300 last week from one of our members out in PA.
This thing is in rough shape. Alot of the paint is bubbling etc.
Huge Bashed in area on the driver's rear.
Passenger side is damaged.
All the seats are ripped and torn.
However.. It's a 5 speed!!

So.. With some help with a body shop, I have a boat load of parts coming in. I decided to make it a gary Bonner SC look alike...
My build time is 17 days. I am going to try to rebuild and get this sc300 ready for our first meet!

I will keep you all posted of updates and progress. Hopefully it will meet the deadline!

This is what it looks like now...






What it should some what look like when it's done...

Sucks that you couldn't keep that clean *** Aristo, but a nicely restored SC is always nice too

Diamond in the rough, this one is, but I sense that you will turn it into something terribly wicked. Good luck.
