Run for cover!

Run for cover, hide your kids, hide your wife...an 80's Toyota enthusiast has just joined the forum!

There goes the neighborhood...

I'm Thom, a photographer located just outside Madison, WI. I've been a Toyota guy since I was 16, and I've been polishing things most of my life. My dad started me off with polishing the wheels on his 1970 Mustang Mach One...probably a smart move, free labor and no bending involved.

I went through several Supras before winding up with my current car, a 1987 Cressida...which wasn't much of a change considering it shares its motor, trans, diff, suspension, brakes, etc with the Supra.

Anyway, we all like photos...

Not bad for 275,000 miles and a hair over 24 years, eh?

To Autogeek Online Thom!

Those are some interesting shots and glad to have you aboard!

24 years old with 275,000 miles is a real testimony for Toyota technology back in the 1980's.

Looks like you've really kept her up well...

Nice Yota! I notice it is lowered! Looks sweet! What other mods do you have done? (I ask since your a Supra guy...)

**My Detailing Guys** · 09-12-2011, 10:44 AM
