Unfortunately for me I am unable to complete my year+ project and I am being forced to sell my pride and joy, my 1992 Toyota Celica GT-S.

I purchased the car in March 2004 @ 208,xxx kms. She was previously owned by a teacher of mine and it was driven from Medicine Hat to Red Deer every weekend so a lot of the km's on the car are highway. Here is some info on the car as of right now:

92 GTS
Fully Loaded Except Leather
2.2L 5SFE Engine
Power everything (Locks, Windows, Sunroof, Steering, etc.)
Non-Airbag Model
System 10 Speaker system (8" mid-woofers in the doors, 4" in the dash, 6.5" in the rear, and four 1" tweeters surrounding the inerior)
Blue Interior (mint mint mint! few scratches on the passenger glove box, nothing major, dash and all is gorgeous)
Driver Power Lumbar Seat
Power Mirrors
5 Speed
22x,xxx kms
Megan Racing Lowering Springs
KYB GR-2 Gas Struts
Custom IRotors Slotted Rotors (Full Discs all around)
(Suspension and brakes professionally installed this earlier this year, have receipt)
17" Focal F5 Rims w/ Kumho 711 Tires (205/40/17)
Practically New Full Sized Dunlop Spare Tire (15")
Procarparts.com clear bumper lenses
Reverse Glow Gauges
Celica GT (120MPH) Gauge Cluster installed (Have original cluster and can be installed, I have pictures and all of when the cluster was changed so the next owner has proof of when it was changed)

Parts Replaced since owned:
CV Axles when first purchased (have receipt for which one)
Clutch in the winter of 2004, unfortunately it was icy when I chose to drive to school, I ended up frying the clutch so it was replaced with an Exedy OEM spec clutch kit professionally by a shop in town.
New Battery (one month old, have receipt)
New Intake Filter
Suspension/Brakes

This car was supposed to be my big project car; throw on the RC front with an alltrac hood, 3sgte swap, the whole nine yards. Unfortunately I have realized this is a project I cannot afford and cannot finish for I want to go to school next year, so a year round car will be more suitable for me. (Unfortunately :( )

I'm sure I'm forgetting something, if I remember I will add more info. The car is currently primered as of right now, 2 layers have been sprayed on and one more I would recommend. The prep work was done by me and two friends (one which worked in an autobody shop) and by no means is this a "hack" prep job. The body is practically flawless, it just needs a few more things put onto the car and it will be complete (ex. middle piece of rear spoiler, driver side rear rocker)
The cars original color was red, and it was in brutal shape with some scratches and few small small dents, so last summer I decided to throw on a bodykit, I then quickly realized the mistake I made and took it off, thus being why this has been such a long project for me.

NO RUST AT ALL ON THIS CAR, not on the exterior or underneath, this car..is CLEEEAN.
I really hate to get rid of this car but unfortunately I want her to go to an owner who can treat her the way she needs to be..and thats getting swapped and finished a-sap.

My asking price is set @ $7000. Laugh all you want, but goodluck finding a better condition 92 GTS than this one. It rides beautifully and all you need is a spray job which will cost you tops $1000 at a local bodyshop, and she will look absolutely flawless.
I checked canadatrader.com and found this a reasonable considering the following:
1990 GTS: 144,000 kms $9500 Stock
1991 GTS: 195,000 kms $8500 Stock


Again this car needs NOTHING but a little more work on the exterior (paint). I was going to quickly finish the exterior and swap in a simple 3SGE and attempt to sell it in the spring for $10,000 (I already have a buyer lined up). That would take a total of $1600, so I would be making a bit more money, but truthfully I dont have the time right now to worry about modifying a vehicle.

So again, $7000 and I'm VERY FIRM on this price for the simple fact of I can make more in the spring, however if someone wants a simple project to unleash in the spring and be comfortable driving it around the city for the simple fact of the interior being beautiful. THIS IS YOUR CAR!

$7000
Located in Medicine Hat, AB.

EDIT: Forgot to add, this car was garaged since the prep work has been done during the winter, so this car is definately clean :)

(could use a new windshield, however it does not block the drivers view, I have never had a problem with this, I was going to replace when getting the car painted)

I will also include an Alpine Alarm, could also install for a small price, SEC-8028. Put in nice keyless entry and alarm in this beauty.

I also have a 90-93 Toyota Celica VIS Racing Invader Type 1 Bodykit that I can throw in for the price of $400 if the buyer wishes to purchase.

Any questions feel free to ask, I know everything and anything about this car so any questions large or small, ask away!

I took a rip in this car, made my miss mine that much more. These cars are smooth as butter to drive and those pictures don't do the car justice. You have to stand right next to the car to appreciate it's stance with those springs. If someone puts a rich red paintjob on this car, they have a sweet car that is easily worth $10'000. Good luck with the sale Kellen, hope someone scoops it up.
