So my dad is quite ill these days sadley and he cant get the energy to clean his pride and joy. He moved into a new place about 4 months ago and his car has been sat on the drive for that time, with the exception of a couple of trips to the shop, which aint far lol. So this poor car has not had a really good clean for a long time :(

The car itself has only done 36k genuine milage :O It is mint for the age.....F reg! think thats around 1988??? not quite sure. Anyway he never has let me drive his car but he has let my older bro :confused: bastard lol So i went round to see him a few weeks ago and sat there was his supra looking faded and sad so i told him if he wants me to take it for a good drive and then take it up to mine and polish her up and get some life back in the old girl then i would do it in a heart beat. He said nope, maybe next year lol (hes going mad on his ********** lol) so i left it at that. My sis bugged him that night and i got an email saying if you want the car for a week then you can :eek::eek: that aint like my dad at all to say that so i bit his arm off and went and got it straight away lol. This is how she was looking when i got her back to mine...still clean i know but slightly pink :rolleyes:

Hope you like!
 
Cheers guys appreciate that

Hope he gets better too and im sure he will in time.

I love this car it is retro to the max and completely standard lol, so easy to get tail happy too, have not been ragging it as it is his pride and joy and you can see why. it scrubs up well

Again thanks! :)
 
you did a great job,paintwork has a great shine and its red now instead of pink!
hope your dad gets better soon:)
 
Wow super clean mate ne'er seen one before looks epic and genuine 36k miles mint :nice:
 
Looks like a lovely car mate, keep them safe dont see many in this condition these days!
 
looks amazing man, i've saw brand new cars look just as good :lol: quality car :nice:
 
i still like these and this one is in great condition, my step dad sold his red supra like this one last year with only 1,850 miles on the clock :wow: they have great extras as standard for such an old car
 
As its been bumped already I thought I better have a quick post haha.

Love that supra, 37k on that car (obviously more now) and an F reg is just insane :D Looks proper mint.
