Clearly we have got the bug. With some encouragement from Pat i've just paid a deposit for a Camry!
Now i have to figure out where to put it!
Anyone want to buy a Clio project?

Haha must be contagious
I just bought a 96 Camry for the wife, thought may as well have 2 cars with same engine, easy to work on and lots of spare parts

And if I blow the MR2 one when i supercharge it, it may become another donor ;-)

dont worry about the bug its a natural thing to want to do , i did my 1mz celica then went and bought mrv6 old / new engine for my blue 2 , ha ha must be mad good luck with your swaps.
only thing i would say is finish at least one of them as the v6 is no good as a non runner.

Yep, i need to finish Pats car just so i can get something else in the garage.
We have already agreed (in principle) that if our rebuilt V6 gives us any trouble the Camry engine is getting hoofed straight in.
One way or another Pat's car will get finished even if we have to kill several cars to do it!
Its just physics!!!!!

That's were I let the wife park lol, nice shade of bronze/purple/silver/WTF do you call that shade of paint, oh well another camry goes to the great scrap yard, you watch they will be coming rare and sort after in the future, the advert will read.
Rare sort after v6 camry lovingly cared for starship miles but many more to go, never been raced or used for an mr2 conversion, head gasket does leak and is heavy on the fuel as never been pocviped , available in a shade of dirty aubergine and rust metallic paint, has much sort after turd color leather with matching trim, free tartan rug and thermos thrown in with authentic old people smell.

Did i buy this car from you????
No leather, its velour and it hasnt seen a valet for a while, Sorry ever. Aside from a spectacular windscreen crack i cannot see much wrong with it. Again its going to be a shame to break it. It's a hell of a lot less classy than the Lexus ES300 we broke, not so many toys and the level of finish.
There is a FO big pool of oil on the front mount, will have to have a look at that when i have stopped being all giddy and girly about a new toy....
