1994 Toyota Supra Preservation Class -Turbo, Manual
Vehicle Overview In 2001, Vin Diesel changed the world with seven words, "You owe me a 10 second car."Instantly, the Toyota Supra helped define car culture the world over as a car that you can customize down to the bolts and turn it into a missile.It's when it hit the US markets, in 1994, it was one of the most powerful cars sold.At 320 HP stock, it was only 35hp shy of the 911 Porsche Turbo that same year.Here is your rare chance to own a true collector Supra, one that has been reconditioned and preserved to meet the standards of a preservation class vehicle (for more information on preservation class:https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2009/06/02/preservation-class-cars).This Supra isNOTone that comes to you with a list of "upgrades" and "exceptions" all of which decrease the value of your investment.
History:
This Supra came to us from its second owner who purchased it and reconditioned the car's original finishes and parts.It has all the usual specs you'll need in an investment Supra-twin turbo, manual, sport roof-however, a gargantuan effort and over $20,000 has been invested in this Supra to keep its collector status.The previous owner was looking for a classic car, not a Supra, and he took great care to ensure that everything done to the car was completely accurate down to the white label on the cigarette lighter.It was and has remained original from day one, and was not converted, single turbo-charged, or modified in any way and kept stock.
VINs and Stickers:
This Supra has all matching VIN numbers on every panel and every piece of glass.Vin numbers etched on the glass was a factory upgrade called Toyo Guard and it's rare to find a Supra with, not only all the VINs etched on the glass, but all glass intact.The original Toyo Guard stickers and factory stickers were tinted into the window to prevent the sticker from corroding or peeling off.
Mechanical:
When the 2nd owner purchased the car it was first inspected by a classic car inspector for its originality.This car has all its original parts down to the engine hoses which are still in working condition and won't need to be replaced anytime soon.
The car was then taken to Tsuyoshi Murata, a Supra Mechanic from Japan residing in Las Vegas.There, Yoshi rebuilt the axels, suspension, and brakes, cleaning and oiling every part, as well as replacing the headlights, exterior lightbulbs, fluids, wipers, and inspecting the engine bay.Every part of the car that needed to be replaced had been replaced with new old stock-which is a term for parts that are from the time the car was made and not made new, but still available.Underneath this car looks like the day it rolled out of the showroom.Rare items like the plastic underbody engine cover remains intact.Usually this is tossed away.
Interior:
Next, it went to Ian's Auto Interiors in Las Vegas.Ian was currently working on a 1920's era Alpha Romeo restoring its interior referencing its original brochure for accuracy when he took in the Supra.Ian went through the interior, removing the leather seats, door panels, and plastic parts.The seats were placed in black plastic bags and drenched with leather butter for days while the leather softened up.The interior vinyl and steering wheel were stripped, reconditioned, and where needed, dyed the original leather color.The owner and Ian used a new old stock shift knob and air bag cover (the cover was not put in the car) as a reference to the original interior color.The car comes with aftermarket floor mats (for driving) as well as the original floor mats which the owner swaps out when showing the car at shows.The plastic pieces were refinished to match the original color using new old stock as the reference here again.
Electronics:
After, the owner replaced the buttons in the center dash (which were yellowing in color) A/C vents, cigarette lighter, light bulbs, and switches with new old stock.
Most if not all 1994 Supras' have the wrong radio, and people will take radios from the later models passing the car off as "all original."In the 1994 radio, the capacitors would leak and corrode the circuitry, rendering the radio useless, so the owner removed the non-working radio and had all the capacitors replaced and the circuitry cleaned up.The radio plays both CDs and cassettes (AM/FM does not work due to permanent damage to the circuitry).Clear wrap was placed on the labels to protect the original lettering.The rotting Toyota stock speaker drivers were replaced with speaker drivers with rubber surround and will no longer rot and they match the wattage and impendence of the stock speakers which is 50w at 4ohms.The stock amp remains in working order and has received new wiring.
Exterior:
This Supra has original paint except for the front bumper and side mirrors.The paint was corrected and preserved by MAD Detailing in Las Vegas and has no scratches or swirls marks.The front bumper and side mirrors were painted by Devious Designs in Las Vegas and the current owner made sure that the original dimples where the dealer drills for the front license plate remain intact.
The wheel center caps were replaced with new old stock, and the factory wheels were powder-coated a custom color to match the original color as the factory wheel paint yellows over time.
Every other exterior part including underneath the car and inside the engine bay was steamed cleaned.All of the metal is free of dirt, debris, oil, rust, and road grime.
This Supra has been awarded Best Exterior 2018 which it was awarded at the famous Supra show in Las Vegas called Supra's In Vegas-a show where each year hundreds of Supra owners bring their cars from all over the country to compete for awards.
Documentation:
This supra comes with all its original documentation.Every service record and new old stock part on this car is documented from day one.It also comes with its original manual, brochure, and accessory booklet.
We welcome pre-purchase inspections as well as we can setup a video chat/facetime with you to look at the car mire in depth.Feel free to call or email with any questions.
