1985 AW11
Would consider her as my first car and I love her endlessly
Will probably be needing plenty of advice and help to get her up to spec
She's a bit rusty around the edges for a start, an on going project if you ask me

Looks pretty good to me. Welcome to the club and thanks for sharing pics. I'm sure you will find plenty of help here when you need it. Lots of AW buffs still around.

Looks very tidy, great choice of wheel too. You will enjoy it. How bad is the rust you have found?

AWesome photography and a sweet ride Mae. I love those rims. Nice I must say.
Keeping these cars on the road is one of the founding angles of this club - getting together to have fun in them is the other - so bring it on a run or two, get to know a few of the crew and you're sure to find all the help you need to keep her in good shape, indeed.
See you on a run or two or a few. Come have some fun in that MR2.
Catcha.

Quite a bit of rust, in the process of getting quotes

If you are near Henderson pop into Safi panel beaters on Henderson valley road, ask him to take a look for you, he specializes in rust repair and has worked on Mikes adub and mine. He will know who sent you.
