Abandoned for Decades This 1985 Toyota Supra Is About to Get a New Lease on Life

[@bobobrazil1973]

One of the best body style supras

[@ArturStone]

Yes, that was the beginning of its story.

[@tomjackson1333]

I remember seeing this car on the show room floor back in 1985. Wow I wanted one.

[@ArturStone]

Yes, I love cars like these; they have a history.

[@andresdixson1779]

I still want one, but I'll never be that lucky😅

[@ArturStone]

@@andresdixson1779 I sometimes see them for sale, but they usually have the stock engine and often need bodywork. In Canada, that’s very expensive

[@ClydePodvin]

People don't realize how much work goes into detailing a car. This was just a 20 minute video, it takes a regular detailer 2-4 hours to detail a car.

[@ArturStone]

Thanks, bro, for this comment. I started washing this car at 8:30 AM and finished close to 5 PM. No breaks

[@andresdixson1779]

Damn! Them sound like details. But what do I know as a 10yr detailer myself. Either way you guys are cool 😊

[@peterromano1911]

​@@ArturStone You need to send this video to The Car Care Nut. AMP would appreciate it!!

[@c.brionkidder9232]

What a difference a thorough scrub can make! It looks great now. Hopefully the sunroof didn't leak, too. It's a great starting point for a mechanical and cosmetic restoration. And there's something beautiful about watching you work, not in a weird way. Like watching a ballet dancer, I don't know how to describe it.

[@ArturStone]

Hi! I totally get what you mean. I’m a civil engineer by training and spent over 15 years in construction, always fascinated by processes. Filming these videos made me realize how much I enjoy washing cars and creating content-it’s a way to express the creativity we all have inside us.

[@jonathanfreedom1st]

This fella is like the Bob Ross of Auto detailing 😂😂❤ Can't stop watching 😂

[@ArturStone]

Thanks, bro, for the awesome comment :)

[@jonathanfreedom1st]

@ArturStone 🙏 subscribed.

[@PascalBruno-d4r]

It seems people in the comments are wanting to correct you. All I have to say is you did a fantastic job with this. Also, not every KZbin channel has the budget, time, and staff to be able to do your typical “perfect” restoration or detail of a car, yet people often expect that of every channel they find on KZbin. What I see is a guy who absolutely loves what he’s doing, and is doing a wonderful job at it without having the massive budget and team behind him to do everything for him.

[@diarrawilliams8347]

Wow, that supra looks nice. I’ve always wanted a supra.

[@ArturStone]

Thanks for the support! We haven’t started the car yet-still waiting for the parts

[@ronaldgreen5292]

This classic Toyota sports car, is in incredible shape, for it's year, and age!! Overall! Especially, for 80's black paint! Looking good so far!👍👍 Back when Toyota made real cars, especially, rear wheel drive, no-boring cars, like today!

[@nowhere529]

At first I thought this was one of those find a Gameboy in mud bogus restoration videos, I think this may be legit, what a cool Car.

[@10phone2]

the toyota w58 maybe the best shifting transmission ever. now maybe find one that is from the 1st gen supra that has the steel case and strong. very solid pickup and the hatch has no rust. amazing

[@titiii8135]

No random dude yapping in video just car care/fix thats all we need.

[@ArturStone]

Thanks! Sometimes you just want to relax and enjoy an ASMR video.

[@WadeButler-g2c]

Nice car. 84 Supra.

[@ArturStone]

Thanks for watching and the support!

[@Willburys]

I love this Car so much.Im Born 1967 and the Eightys are Gamechanger about Technic Motor and Design.I love Japan Cars Nissan Z 280 and more!

[@donnie7578]

Great Job! I Love that car!

[@ArturStone]

Judging by your profile picture, you have excellent taste in cars! I absolutely love vehicles from the 60s to the 90s-it's the golden era of engineering, in my opinion.

[@donnie7578]

@@ArturStone I agree with you.

[@christopherzischka3299]

You should probably start with the roof and work your way down when cleaning and detailing a car, I understand that it’s been abandoned for years

[@ArturStone]

Yes, that’s exactly what I do, but thanks for pointing it out.

[@michaelwhitacre8499]

MUCH BETTER, she still needs a lot more love though 👍

[@ArturStone]

Yes, there are plenty of issues, starting with the paint and replacing some of the damaged metal in places. The brake lines might need replacing, and there's also an electrical problem to address.

[@user-lx9jm1wo3h]

I thought you were going to detail it but all you did was wash it. 🙄

[@ArturStone]

I’m happy to do a full detailing, polish, and protective coating, but this requires properly prepped surfaces. This car needed to be washed first.

[@lawrencekalfayan1439]

Looking forward to seeing the paint correction, and polish and wax.

[@jonathanbuffy3522]

They were nice cars my mom had a white 85 in the 90s when I was a kid

[@ArturStone]

Sometimes I see ads where these cars are being scrapped for $200 because they've already rotted and are no longer needed. It's a shame, an entire era is passing before our eyes.

[@linkmasters535]

I don’t understand how people can find things like this just sitting around and people just come across them like that I wish I could do that

[@ArturStone]

Bro, I spent six months searching for this car-posting in groups, reaching out to friends, driving around, and talking to owners. It's a whole process, and a lot of work goes on behind the scenes that isn't obvious.

[@motordown7664]

Favorite body 2 gen. Please do a follow up video.

[@ArturStone]

Thanks, bro! The follow-up depends on the owner of the car. He wants to sell it, but it needs care and parts

[@Fast-Burn-Productions-LLC]

For a video that long I figured you would have buffed the paint to make it really shine! Why didn't you do that? Still looks like a less dirty supra! 😎

[@ArturStone]

It's spray-painted, and you can see the paint chipping off in the video. There's a lot of bodywork to be done, it's already started to rust unfortunately. So maybe next time there will be a polish.

[@RobertGildea-s8s]

I am watching from Elmira NY did you find the vehicle in the woods or in the field

[@Sébastien-s3b]

bravo ,bonne continuation

[@ArturStone]

Merci, frérot, pour ton soutien et tes mots gentils !

[@ademiralencar2044]

Que bom que esses carros voltam a vida me alegra ver uma joia ser lapidada de novo

[@ArturStone]

Ainda há muito trabalho antes de trazer de volta à vida. Convenci o dono a lavar o carro e tentar ligá-lo depois de 5 anos parado, mas estou esperando ele ter um tempo livre.

[@jamesdouglas8760]

Exterior, spray to get wet wth water, then use compressed air. Scratching will be less.

[@ArturStone]

The paint comes off due to the use of a pressure washer. :)

[@suprafanatic1984]

Nice! That's a '84

[@ArturStone]

Yes, I checked, this specific car is from 1984, an oldie, 40 years old!

[@jasoncole4089]

More interested to see that 1UZ under the hood...

[@ArturStone]

I'm waiting for the owner's reply, I'm really curious myself, I can't wait to take it for a spin!

[@jamesdouglas8760]

I enjoy watching these detail vids. The methods and tools, surprise me as they are used. When the soap, foamy stuff goes on the whole car and only one section at a time can be worked as 4/5 ths of the heavy application drips off the car? The cost and time don't make much sense. Entertaining.

[@ArturStone]

Hello, it's probably no secret that over 90 percent of detailing videos on KZbin are made primarily for entertainment. All for you, dear viewers!

[@cesarestrella4995]

Y aún falta hacer reparación de suspensión y motor... Aparte detalles de hojalateria y estético de interiores...

[@andresdixson1779]

I do have to say that would been faster with a wet dry shop vac,oh there it is 😊

[@ArturStone]

Even the tornador couldn’t handle it, all because of the long time it sat in the forest.

[@emmadavidson9456]

I know where there is one identical to it! Unfortunately it sat in the woods for 30 years and they weren't kind ones😢

[@ArturStone]

Hey, where are you located? I'm in Canada

[@emmadavidson9456]

@ArturStone I'm in north Carolina 😉

[@leunoff]

2.8 twin turbo?

[@ArturStone]

It's a 4.0L V8 naturally aspirated engine. If I get this car, the first thing I'll do is install a Garrett turbo.

[@beardavi8182]

Is it for sale 🤔

[@ArturStone]

Yes, I think the owner plans to sell the car, but there’s no specific price yet. :(

[@beardavi8182]

Thanks! Awesome job on a awesome car,👍

[@gerry-p9x]

Try using electric leaf blower yo temove crud leaves offa var before wash

[@ArturStone]

Thank you, I initially blew them off with compressed air, but a lot of wet leaves stuck together.

[@JoeUrdiales]

Will you do the next video, ( step) of buffing and waxing that supra??

[@ArturStone]

Hi! The car's body was spray-painted, and some areas need metal replacement. The owner wants to sell it as it is. I'm considering buying it. If I do, it will become a project for KZbin.

[@JoeUrdiales]

@ArturStone , that would be awesome!! BTW, I enjoy your videos so much, I've subscribed!! From Texas, much respect!!

[@ArturStone]

@@JoeUrdiales Thank you, brother, for such a kind comment! And thanks for subscribing. This video really took off, and now I’m thinking about what to film next. :)

[@JoeUrdiales]

@@ArturStone , I will await new videos patiently.

[@elliottgiles958]

I like this bodystyle most..🎉🎉

[@ArturStone]

I love these headlights! :)

[@gerry-p9x]

​@@ArturStonecousin had one white charcoal interior new. Beauty car yet had electrical gremlins since then

[@ArturStone]

@@gerry-p9x This car also has a few electrical and body issues, which is normal since it's almost 40 years old :) I hope there's a second part where we get it started and take it for a drive.

[@HerveAbdallah-vm9jb]

Restauré ancienne Toyota

[@ArturStone]

Sim, talvez eu consiga restaurá-la.

[@dcbarney8571]

Should have presoaked it first in apc to release most of the algae easier then to clean not so grabby otherwise good job

[@ArturStone]

Thanks for the advice, brother!

[@Ashuy-e9c]

Is that supra and toyota 86 are same?

[@terrypikaart4394]

Doesn't anyone use a leaf blower to dry a car anymore!?

[@rodneydrew9117]

best car ever may buy Toyota

[@ArturStone]

Yes, Toyota, especially the models before 2000, really made some legendary cars. The 1UZ-FE engine, for example, was limited in power due to regulations, but engineers designed it in a way that made it easy to modify after release. With simple upgrades like turbocharging, you could easily push it past 400 horsepower, and some builds have reached 700 horsepower or more. This is one of the reasons why these cars are still highly valued today.

[@mrmasterplaster999]

you made that look really hard, some decent products and that would have been done so much easier

[@ArturStone]

Hi there! What products would you recommend?

[@c.brionkidder9232]

easy for you to say, keyboard warrior

[@mrmasterplaster999]

@ArturStone I'm in the uk, where are you ? I use meguires shampoo, auto glym snowfoam and bilt hamber wheel cleaner and starna gloss pre wash

[@ArturStone]

I'm in Canada, and I mostly use Meguiar's, Chemical Guys, Turtle Wax, and Mothers.

[@JoelThomas-cm2qz]

Faire une vidéo sur une voiture pour montrer un type laver la dite voiture. Faut vraiment n'avoir que ça à faire c'est triste celà aurait pu être interessant de voire en detail ce vehicule mais de plus en plus de gens se filme en train de laver leur bagnole !!!!😢

[@ArturStone]

Frère, à l'avenir, je prévois de réaliser un documentaire sur cette voiture. Ce n'est pas ma première chaîne, je compte vraiment faire des critiques automobiles complètes.

[@anthonybrooks9314]

Should be scraped

[@ArturStone]

A lot of people scrap them, but there are some weird guys who spend loads of money, nerves, and time to give these cars a second life :)

[@eliomarlacerda6943]

What about the engine bay

[@ArturStone]

There was just a vacuum and compressed air, there’s an issue with the wiring, and for now, we decided not to touch it.

[@Sendapower]

1UZ engine?

[@ArturStone]

Yes, bro! That’s the charm of this car-the swap is already done.

[@arielalvarez-qj1dz]

Never ever wash or detail a car like this guy first is wen a car is that dirty always go with degreaser first then rinse the car

[@andreswann6001]

Can we see the interior

[@ArturStone]

Hey man, sorry, I'm new to KZbin and thought 20 minutes might be too long, so I decided not to include the interior cleaning. But honestly, it’s not looking great. I might edit another version with the interior because, based on the stats, people seem to prefer longer videos. Thanks for the support

[@bernandoturner4840]

Anybody can wash A car get it running...

[@ArturStone]

Of course, you just need the will! :)

[@alexandruiosub872]

Spero che il proprietario dell'auto ti abbia pagato bene per questo lavoro. Perché ci vogliono molte ore per pulire una macchina ridotta in quelle condizioni.

[@ArturStone]

The owner is busy with his own matters, and he suggested buying this car as a project for KZbin. I'm considering it, but as a beginner KZbinr, I don't have the budget for such projects :( I really want to, though.

We'll keep that in mind for the future.
