Would've changed a couple things on these cars but I like the theme.
Kind of reminds me of my neighbors, except their cars are all red.

“Paris-Dakar is special in so many ways. It’s not just about the speed, but one has to know when to slow down, too. It involves so many more human aspects than what you might call a normal competition, which is strictly ruled by the stopwatch. Seeing the local life, the vastness of the Sahara… it all leaves an immense impression.” - 1981 World Rally Champion Ari Vatanen about the magic of Paris-Dakar Rally.

And the Manta...
“Really, this is like a Group C car on tarmac. It is absolutely the fastest thing and the feeling is incredible.” - Henri Toivonen´s first impressions of the Lancia Rally 037 Group B car before rocketing it to a string of fastest stage times in the 1984 Rally Portugal.
“For me it was a very special period of time in my career when I raced for them - not least because I was the last driver to be signed by the late, great legend Enzo Ferrari. To then go on and win my debut race for Ferrari in Brazil 1989 was a very special feat.” - Nigel Mansell
“To drive for the Ferrari racing team is a boyhood dream of any racing driver. There is no question that there is a special mystique about Ferrari, and the Italians certainly go motor racing in a different way.” - Nigel Mansell
“It was a fantastic car to drive. In race trim we had about 560 bhp and in tests we got 600 bhp out of it. The acceleration was amazing, with no lag whatsoever. It went from 0-100 km/h in under three seconds and from 0-200 km/h in 9,6 seconds.” - World Rally Champion Hannu Mikkola about Audi´s Quattro S1 (E2) Group B monster car.

^ I wish Virginia allowed people to put more than just the damn tax stamp (practically) on their windshields. When I had the sun visors in my car they hardly helped since they're so short and I sit significantly lower than with the factory seat. My windshield doesn't have the A-S1 line so, by regulation, it defaults to a limit of no more than 3" worth of "sun shading material" from the top of the windshield. That's less than what the factory visors covered!

Defaults to no covering, actually.

Never realized how sexy the TA28 is...
And they're not exactly expensive, either.
In good condition I assume they're pretty pricey. Dac_Xint and I looked at a green one a couple of years ago that was pretty tatty and going for about US$25k. Althought in HK you pay way above the odds for stuff like this. The car in your post looks utterly amazing!

Amazing classic Toyota, hope I can find a TA and a Hako 2000GT-R.
Although it's not common, but you can find one of these in the US. Even if you import one, at least the car is over 25 years old.

Well, I can't, of course, say anything about foreign markets. From what I've seen, though, you'd be able to buy:
It would take lots of fabricating, of that I'm sure, but this is actually the most realistic approach to getting a that I would love all around. Great looks (with a bit of body work and a lowered/new suspension, wheels etc.), fun due to the light weight (and, thus, sufficient amount of power), not too pricey to keep running. Plus, it's pretty unique, too.
Just a bit of thinking I've done
I love me some nice retro JDM cars and I'm pretty determined to get one, one day. It's out of the question for the next few years, but I'm holding onto that idea. And this approach sure seems more realistic than getting an S30 
At least if you're going for a genuine GT-R, not just a regular GC10.
- A car in need of some work for sub € 5,000
- A car in decent condition for sub € 10,000
- A recently fully restored car for about € 30,000

Personally, I'd be looking for a car where the body is in good condition, whereas the suspension and engine are shot. I'd probably go for a different engine, anyways. Something just as small, put a bit more powerful and economical. Haven't thought it through, but from what little I've gathered, it's possible to swap a 3S GTE into it, so something like Ford's 1.6 Ecoboost or VW's 2.0 FSI (depending on whether I'd want to go turbo or NA) should fit, provide plenty of oomph (about 150 HP and 200 Nm) for such a light car, get great mileage, be good on emissions and relatively cheap to source, as plenty of cars with such engines end up being crashed. Probably not the easiest transplant, but still.

Same Thing with me when I find one of those TA Celica, been thinking of a 3SGTE motor pushing around 350hp would do me good or even a LS1 block for a little USDM/JDM twist, but I'll do either a LS1 or restore the original engine, if I'm lucky to own two.
Yeah I love any of the Hakoskuas Skylines, I just love Skylines/Skyline GTRs/GTRs period
. But if I can find a 2000GT-R, then debate on either restoring the S20 and building the engine to its max or swapping a SR20 or a RB20DET engine and fixing up the car. So many decisions I think I need to find TWO Hako GTR coupes . Eunos_Cosmo
OMG!!! Are you kidding, a road car of a 787B?!
......I gotta see this soon to be masterpiece . I wonder if they are working with Mazda with this idea on bringing a LeMans Legend to the streets. Seems like a lot of work with a project like this.

What is the third car on the right? I know about the Stratos and Delta.
Is it a Lancia or De Tomasto?

^Really like this photo. The car and the barn in the background with all the classic fuel sign paintings.
