My dad (jau663) bought a s13 the other day. So I went down to raleigh NC to pick it up. long story short, the car was in terrible shape. not worth the $300 he bought it for on ebay. i told the guy it wasnt worth my time or money to take it home. so he replys " how much will you give me for it?" i ended up getting the thing for $100. (still barely worth it)

But anyways, Dad and i are now the proud owners of a 93 fastback se. on to the pics!!we pretty much gutted it today, and got a couple of over things done :D wait a sec, what the heck is he doing!!! no. it cant be! thats not possible!!

very possible indeed. we have a good little bit done so far, but the net is being gay and net letting me upload any more pics right now, more pics tomorrow

for me i think 100 dollars for that car is worth it because it would me a good part car and i can see that you guys cut off some of the rear, so i am gonna take a guess about what you guys are going to do..........i think you guys are going to make a 180sx/truckright , or wrong , but if you guys are going to do a truck i think it would be cool because not alot of people in america has this kinda of car so good luck on what you guys are doing and keep us posted on pix

An s10 window might fit. Pick one up for about twenty bucks around here. Funny this thread started. I have a 93 hatch sitting around i wanted to do something with. I text my little brother this morning regaurding doing this same thing to my hatch. He made fun of me, then i got to work and saw this thread...
