Saturday afternoon at the shop: It's alive and running... not bad considering it hasn't been driven in 5 years.  Wait until you hear it run now!

Pimp Preston's Ride

Preston is in the process of pimping his Celica!  But not just any Celica.  Preston's Alpine Metallic Silver 1994 Toyota Celica GT Limited addition, which was a gift from his father Frank Pardy.  Preston kept this car for 18 years, 1 year in NL, 13 years in NS and 4 years in AB.  Many great memories were made in that car; two trips across Canada, NS to Flordia in 30hrs, 250,000km of pure enjoyment and fun! In two years time it becomes a Canadian "Classic" Car.  One of Preston's dreams is to Pimp his Ride so this blog is the beginning.   He'll walk you through each of the four phases in the pimping of his Celica GT!

Back in 2007, the Celica failed inspection at Major Discount on Portland Street in Dartmouth and received it's red sticker.
