There is definitely something special about older cars. I am looking forward to getting this one back on the road. (Just not looking forward to the painting part of it! 😂)

Thanks! 😊

So many things to do, only so much space to work in. Trust me, I don't even want to watch myself do the sanding, let alone put you guys through it! 🤣

I tried it. Clashed a bit. Too much going on. Didn't think to try it until you suggested it though!

I'm leaning towards chrome. Wish I had a 3D printer, and knew how to use one, so I could make my own lower profile caps!

Thank you. Every step gets them closer to completion.

Pretty safe bet that fitment will work when going OEM+ (But it's always a good idea to double check! 😄)

Thanks! They became brighter before my eyes during the sanding of the faces (I'm not sure the transition came through well on the video)

I'm still undecided. Might have to set the wheels up again with a different cap in each and stare at them for a while longer....

It has been kept in a warmer environment (never seen snow) Maybe that did help. Thank you for the kind words 🙌

Every car is different, but my Celica only started leaking after changing the sump gasket. After sealing the rear bolts, the leak has stopped. If the rear main has leaked, you'll probably want to put in a new clutch while you're there.

😆

Thank you! 😃

Thank you 😊 I don't think it does yet, but every small step forward counts.

Thank you! It feels strange, knowing that my videos are being watched in places I wouldn't expect, all around the world!

Thank you 🤗

It won't pass a roadworthy inspection with an oil leak. Next episode I manage to find the leak without pulling the transmission off. (Oil pan gasket ☹️)

It's an Xtrons android unit, specifically for the W203. I have sold the car and all the paperwork went with it, so I can't tell you the specific model number. A quick google search for "Xtrons W203" should get you some results. There is probably a newer model with more RAM available now.

Thank you. If you're methodical, you can get through it, but disc brakes are definitely not as complicated! 😆

I'm saving some jobs for my international friends to complete when they eventually visit. I don't want them to be bored 😉

@ProjectCarHaven put me in coach! I'm all over that project

I found that the leak was from the sump. The two rear bolts in the centre (with the thicker reinforcing plate) needed a bit more help with sealing. I didn't find any oil internally in the gearbox. Check the heads of those two sump bolts to see if there are drips of oil hanging from them.

Thanks. It's not perfect, but it does look nicer (to me) The frustrating thing was there were no instructions on the can for application method, and reviews online were saying it doesn't work (probably because they didn't apply the paint using the method I used) If it still didn't work for me, I was going to take the paint back for a refund. (for not working as advertised) It's the new brand being sold at Supercheap Auto. (MTN brand) Their mirror paint worked pretty well, but once again, no application instructions.

I may have a problem...... (Good thing I have an understanding wife 😄)

Parts are getting harder to find because the Celicas are getting older and fewer on the road. We just have to try harder to keep these cars on the road. (I guess it's part of the fun) There is a seller in Thailand that makes good reproduction parts. Some of the rubber seals are nearly exact to Toyota factory seals (which are no longer in production). Does not sponsor me, but I have bought a lot of parts from this person. www.ebay.com/str/coniglio1975shop

спасибо! я действительно это ценю

Thank you. Making progress, slowly but surely.

😆

Thanks, will do!

Thank you Colin! I figure I should show more of the things I'm using, especially if they aren't sponsored items. I'm using them because they are my preference, not because a company gave them to me for free. (I definitely don't have any sponsored items, and If I ever do, I'll be sure to make it very clear in my videos.)

Thank you! Cheers!

.....the pain. If I were to do it again, I think I'd support the engine with a brace or a crane, and drop the cross member.

I have some links to similar parts, but can't find my receipts as I gave them to the new owner. Hope this helps!

Thank you. It is a really nice place to be in the world, that's for sure.

Glad you like them! Thanks for the feedback.

Grazie! Alcune strade in Italia sarebbero fantastiche per godersi un'auto da progetto riparata.

@@ProjectCarHaven Ciao. E si, alcune sono una vera magnificenza. Io ho questa auto, C180 (ovviamente benzina, 129 HP, 1998cc) del 2001. Grazie e buone cose
