whats up people, i may as well start with the backround of where this POOPRA came from…  
Once apon a time, there was this lonely grey sports car. This car was not only dying to be driven but soooo far from home and very lonely. This poor thing had arizona liscence plates on it and boy did the faded paint and torn up interior back that up…now at this time i was only 16 years old and knew absolutely nothing about cars really, i knew that i didn’t mind workin on 'em but that was about it…now do u think i had any clue what i had found?!? hell no…I must be a lucky bastard to have stumbled on this gem especially considering how much i paid for it…so anyways the story continues with me running this poorly takin care off vehicle into the ground and blowing the shit out of the head gasket (what a SUPRAise huh?) …Now its been a good year and a half since ive driven the car and this past winter i decided to rebuild the motor so i could get this thing back on the road… heres some pics to give a hint as to what im workin on here…

 ![http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j188/mk3some/engbay.jpg](http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j188/mk3some/engbay.jpg)  
interior was shottie so full remodel is actually in progress

now for the yummmmmmmyyyy part! Well skrapper and I were rippin stuff apart in the trunk area and made a small discovery.very minor.lol.this is a look at the spare tire chamber…  
 ![http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j188/mk3some/mmmm.jpg](http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j188/mk3some/mmmm.jpg)  
toyota was thinkin ahead when they built this car, they must have known that someday I would find gallons of nasty brew in the trunk, there was drain plugs in the floor, how cool…heres a shot of the koolaid trying to mimic tha falls…
