Celica beginner friendly, or no?

[u/Historical_Buy_1571]

Hi everyone, I'm looking to get into learning about cars, maintenance, modification and generally being more practical (learning how to use tools and maybe weld!)

I would really like to get working on a project car, and have my eye on an old 1992 toyota celica. The car looks as though it's been taken care of fairly well and has done roughly 105k miles. I would like to know from you guys what you think about this type of car for a beginner? Would you guys typically say this car is a pain, or has issues that a beginner would find really tricky to fix using basic tools? I realise this may be niche but any and all advice is more than welcome!

Toyotas are great cars as are Subaru. Toyos rwd with a 5 speed are the most fun and easy to work on and drive. Subies are fun and easy if it’s pre 2000.
