Well let me start off with a bit of background information about this amazing vehicle....
It has been in my family since its creation in 1987.
My parents bought it as a family car and it was imported from japan
At age 3, the car got into a bad car accident and the driver side corner was taken off
It was repaired and used as the family car until 1994
My parents got a van for the growing family in 1994 and the camry became my fathers commuter car
Then in 2004 at age 17 it became mine, my first car
I worked and began to learn all about car stereos computers video etc I installed a very terrible sound system (but i was very proud of it) and an unstable computer.
Now it sits in my friends garage and is waiting for me to return from college. It still runs and is in quite reliable shape but i want to give it a complete update and make-over. A resurrection if you will.
