Those are the og, that bodywork is very clean. Bet it was someone's pride and joy

[TimOdell]

I thought that dust was frost or ice at first.

Damn...probably an abandoned storage clean out situation.

Me and my boyfriend just bought this car a week ago! He said he already commented, but I figured I’d say something too. I’ve cleaned up the interior and put it all back together really nice and we’re crazy close to having it back on the road again!

That's the smell of the guy stress smoking while he was trying to restore it. Some guy saw F&F, heard supra, bought this poor thing and spent a long time "learning" on it before he gave up and started where he should of in the first place on his mechanic's journey. S'ok fam, we've all been there.

I bought a brand new one in '82. Exactly like that, black on black. I had it for ten years. One of my most favorite cars. In 150, 000 miles, only regular maintenance. My Supra never let me down and was so much fun to drive. 40 years ago, but seems like yesterday. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

That was somebody's baby at one point; its definitely worthy of restoration.

[KoolKatInTown]

Unpopular opinion, but this looks 10 times better than the overrated Supra with plain headlights..

[SHIREDRIFT]

Buy it. Super clean bodywork and mainly complete. These will going up and up in value. Not really cherished in the US, but the rest of the world - where they all rust out- that's holy grail condition!

I washed dishes at a restaurant and saved to buy this car, my first car. Some kids down the block decided to light it on fire one night... I still miss that car.

[matthewhealy]

I've had two of those but one I drove for about 17 years and they are the most indestructible fun car you could get. the seats to sit high but they're also very valuable. the shifter functions wonderfully once you figure it out. very well-balanced car and so much fun.

That giant forklift was hauling ass at the end

[stewbokka]

I had an 1984 .. it was an amazing car w a straight 6 cyl. Had it in high-school. Everybody loved the supra.. I still have people asking about still to this day 😁

[polosavage]

You should definitely get that one, it's clearly in very good shape and the layer of dust on it shows that it was stored inside all that time instead of out in the elements, sure it's going to need some work but clearly whoever had it before knew what they had!! You could easily find a buyer for this either in the states or out of the country without a doubt

This is definitely one of the most gorgeous Japanese cars ever made.

[hzq]

I have 2 of them. 1 fully restored and the other one is on-going. Had so much fun restoring and made loads of friends because of them.

[alokpatil]

This Supra with pop up headlights is just a masterpiece 🤩🥰

[xersis]

Those hard lines on those older vehicle are so soft and elegant yet defined unlike the bulbs we have today

back in the 80s HKS used one of these to set records at the Yatabe test track

[blaster-zyxx]

Love these 80’s wedge cars. This is one of my faves.

[HrothgarOdubhghaill]

This generation will always be my favorite. The body is gorgeous, and the interior/gauges were sext for the time period. If I ever get the chance I'd love to own one.
