Alabma 240 owners...Represent!

For what I seen in the past good body/paint work is rare every where you go. Even if you pay top price. Body shops concentrate on doing work for rental and car dealers and they would care less about customers like you or me that need a good paint job. Unless you go to Macco and probable heard the stories about them.

I end up learning the basics and Im doing my own body/paint work. Is not complicated if you are willing to learn and buy the basic equipment.

...yea i can do the little things but i need a new rear p/s quarter panel installed and have paint but i cant paint it

[Shift_Alabama]

So are you all organizing a track day or something? I didn't know there were any road tracks around here...

[watty]

Right now it will be at the dragstrip. If my friend comes through with the deal he's working on, then we can get a group to go to the circle track and set up a large cone road/drift course.

You are talking about Milton Frank Stadium. That that piece of asphalt is nice. The only problem is that iirc you have to have hired security to work the event. Also, they lock the gates when nobody is there. I know the Twickenham auto club has been using that spot lately. Might jump over on there forum and find out how they get to use it.

[Shift_Alabama]

What kind of car club is Twickenham? Japanese? Euro? Domestic?

[watty]

It is an SCCA/autocross club. They have cars of every type. I check the list of participants in some of the last races and they included:

350ZRX-8Z-06MiataSunbeam AlpineVW Rabbitsand other random cars

They are open to just about anything.

[shpaintball]

[shpaintball]

ANYONE KNOW OF ANYONE SELLING A 240 for 2000 or less willing to take payments? thanks

[watty]

Hey 9tray2fourOsX,

I was working on your car last night and it looks like it may be ready by the end of the weekend assuming we don't have to wait on anything. Also, I'm gonna go check my parts chassis and see if I have a radio bracket for you. Dude, that radio mounting was kinda jacked up. I might be able to get you the front braces from the frame rails to the lower radiator core support. Your's are bent a little and wouldn't hurt to be replaced.

Hey shpaintball, have you looked on autotrader or autoextra? That's where I'm looking. Seems like every once and awhile a good s13 near here shows up.

Hey wattydchi, are you done with Brad's 240 yet? I really wanna see it!

[shpaintball]

ive been looking i need a motor i found many shells i need a ka24de....anyone help me out w/ that? ....im brad 2 ...lol

[Shift_Alabama]

maybe watty can help you out since he took out brad's ka24...

[watty]

That KA is more or less dead. I think there might be one rod that isn't knocking. We did however fire up the sr20 last night. It fired right up after remembering to plug the other side of the igniter in. Now it just needs the fuel pump, turbo timer, and have everything buttoned up. Yay, almost done.

[Shift_Alabama]

Cool cool...I think Brad's REALLY looking forward to getting his car back.

[shpaintball]

man i wish i had my car back...: ( ....anyone seen any around for sale....or even a ka ? hey does brad live in huntsville....has s14 didnt have a front bumper for a while .his car is kinda a green ish?

[Shift_Alabama]

I think maybe you're talking about a different Brad. The Brad I'm talking about has a white chuki hatch. I think I know the Brad you're talking about.

[shpaintball]

how many are there in huntsville dam...lol

[Shift_Alabama]

There's quite few around here. If you look on al drift there's a couple Brads on there.

[Sr20detwins]

Whats up. Mobile, AL..... bought my 93' fb base for $400 running with 162,000.

[Shift_Alabama]

Hey man, what's up. Feel free to browse around our six page long thread of uselessness...

[Sr20detwins]

[Shift_Alabama]

Yeh, post up some pics. In the meantime, my favorite car other than the f*cking awesome Skyline:
