So i'm at work (Nissan Dealer), and I notice a s13 vert getting loaded up onto a tow truck. I ask the driver where it's going, and he tells me it's getting donated to charity due to the blown motor. Long story short, the foreign guy who owned it sold it to me for 200 bucks! 140k, 1993, perfect everything but a frickin blown ka. Un believable. So anyway the plan is to strip my sil80 chassis and turn the vert into the next drift-mobile.

nice find. I hate you. I paid a bit more for mine and then yanked the KA anyhow.

You should move this to the 'vert forum.

Yeah, the best part about it is I have all the parts I need. Also the car will be like 75% new paint after I transfer the body over. Plus I can eliminate the dumb seat belt thingy with my doors which have no power options!!

Definitely Tenkawa youll get a bunch of questions from me as Ive never even had a good look at a vert much less owned/worked on one.

I saw a s13 for 100$ at a salvation army auction once. It looked pretty good but something was very wrong with the engine. At the time, I could've cared less.... oh well.
