TL;DR Summary

A custom Toyota Celica has been brought back to life using parts from four different BMWs, including a 2001 323i from which it inherited the M50 engine. The project also involved borrowing the rear end from a 2011 BMW 3 Series and the steering column from a Renault Clio. The second-generation Celica now serves as a drift car with a BMW-sourced gearbox, featuring a carbon-Kevlar body, vented hood, rear wing, fender flares, and a custom heated windscreen. The project showcases the effort and creativity involved in rescuing a neglected car by repurposing parts from other vehicles.
