So I don't know how many of you know this, but I moved to Canada about 5 months ago (Again lol) and weirdly enough came across a good deal

Went halves with a friend on getting a 1985 Toyota Corolla AE86 SR5 with a Ford 302 V8 and a 1986 Toyota MR2 AW11 with a 20V Silvertop 4AGE

The 86 is far from done, needs some rust repair inside (Rear drivers side tub and rear panel) and I got a bluetop 16V 4AGE for it (for really cheap too) just need a gearbox and driveshaft and it'll run. I also got some mediocre condition Enkeis for it (look like watanabes) and some 20V Blacktop throttle bodies too

The AW11 was pretty solid, rusty rear arches and a dent in the passenger front but other than that its mint. Had some serious engine issues, was misfiring continously on one cylinder and occasionally the other three. I'm currently in progress of making a new harness for it, but i rebuilt the motor from bottom up and now its just miss firing on one, but it has an aftermarket ECU which is the biggest pile ever which is causing it to over fuel (we went through 3 sets of spark plugs in one sitting) and a bad dizzy and leads.

This leads me to what we bought next, yet another AW11, with an awful paintjob and a motor that hasnt run in 10 years, but the car is solid, and has the rare plastic roof spoiler too, and we paid almost nothing for it.

I have two other cars on the way too, but I won't disclose them until they're on my driveway. I'll upload pics ASAP, but as you can tell I have my hands full haha

ah so this is why you're busy.

So what are you going to do with the car? Turn it into a race car or daily drive it?

So a lot has happened holy f**k



Just so everyone doesnt s**t a brick I still have the 86!

So I've moved house, still in Canada tho. Starting college soon, still broke as s**t lol

But car list currently as of today:

AE86 (Not running sat in my backyard lol)
MR2 AW11 x2 (Not technically mine, well one will be, other is a friends, neither run yet)
Volkswagen Vanagon T25 (This actually runs, its good on gas, and was the cheapest)
SUPER SECRET NOT BOUGHT YET x2 (waiting on dude to let me have them)
Volkswagen Golf Mk1 (Same as the last cars)



So yeah as you can see I've turned into some kind of sickly obsessed hoarder. But I'll fill you with the plans:

86 is my forever, going to restore this as I go on in life

MR2's I need them running, the black one will be mine as a daily/track thing, the red one will go to my friend and he will decide what happens

Vanagon is going up for sale this week, just ironing out the last issue and it'll be posted. $4K Canadian dollars if anyone is interested.

SUper secret is well the obvious.

MK1 golf is just a case of ACTULLY GETTING MY f**kING HANDS ON IT

I promise pictures soon, follow me on snapchat: joviblueadams and instagram (the same) for actual pictures and updates on this s**t

I'm planning on making a youtube channel on what I build, mainly because my gf wants to do cinematography and I want to start a business using my engineering skill

Ah, I'm sure the V8 will go to good use. They seem to be the easiest platform for power on a budget. Thank you Pontiac and Chevrolet for this.
Although as much as I love V8's. It's very respectable to be brand loyal. So, I wish you the best of luck in this project. It''ll stand out from the rest of the 86 crowd. In a good way. For some reason clean originality looks better than an overly modified speedhunters cotton candy rides.
