Hi. I'm new on the forum so i whant to welcome everyone first! My name's Adrian and i'm going to restore and modify my 76 carina. I'm the owner for about a year, and it's about time to get my hands on her 
Overal car has its shape, but im not shure what i'll find under the putty and "previous owner conservation layers"... Time will show...
This is what car looks like today:
So there's a lot of work to do For pros is that the car is almost complete, only few parts are missing.
My plans are:
-restoration of body
-adaptation of suspension for some more modern design, because of lack of oldschool toyota parts in my country, so i don't really have other option
-adaptation of some "beter" engine and drivetrain- by saing better i mean more power and reliability.
I also need help because i have problems with documentation of a car and i can't register it. To do that i need actual data of curb weight, maximum weight and maximum axle load. Such data should be provided with user manual or on vin plate. Unfortunately i don't have any of those and in internet i only have found curb weight. Maybe someone here has such informations?
