you posted it but good luck finding one in good condition and/or finding all the necessary interior bits to make it look decent
trim pieces are hard to find, this is shit you'll probably sneed to end up making yourself.

>>28109619
Probably a Delorean.

Personally I've always been thinking about buying an old turd-gen Firebird that's either a Trans-Am or putting on a body kit inspired by the Trans-Am.

i've looked through hundreds of Celicas locally and only 3 of them were the 84/85 model
And they were over 7k so my pocket will hurt a bit
>>
>>28109622
Is there a difference? the latter one would be just more exaggerated edges and boxy looks, which is what i want but within the bounds of reality

There isn't technically a difference, because the cyber ones did exist but most 80s cars were boring boxes.

Grand National, Testarossa, or Countach with the wing.
There's a very clean one of your pic near my house. Guy seems to take really good care of it. Sometimes WA has some amazing cars. Most times it's faggy bevs.

no, starions have normal doors. they didn't even have t-tops that were popular back then to make gullwing doors easy-ish to make.

firebirds have even wider tail lights

Exceeded some vehicle weight limit thingy.
Neighbor has one of those in his yard, they were somewhat popular here in Finland along with the "nigger lip" Nissans and Mitsubishi egg vans

can people 3d print parts now?
>>
>>28110879
Depends on your budget. Want to spend a new BMW on a laser sintering machine? Or just $150 on a spaghetti slinger?
>>
>>28110879
I think the better strategy is to 3D print an approximate part, make a mould of the approximation, fix any errors with sanding and epoxy and more sanding, and then pour liquid plastic/rubber/whatever into said mould
>>
>>28110879
Depends on what exactly you're trying to do. Clips, buttons, handles or trim pieces are a piece of cake, airboxes or intake manifolds need more exotic materials but are doable, and something like a turbo exhaust manifold is possible but prohibitively expensive for the vast majority of projects.

I had an 88 Turbo for my first car. Great while it was working until the turbo exploded and sent shrapnel throughout the engine bay. Got it for ~3k from the original owner with about 70k miles. Full service history too.

This is funny and I don’t know why. At least you still have it.
