Yes I can weld. Gonna fix the lower control arm and make sure it will a-line right before I spend alot of money. Airbags are the kicker. $$$

its not that bad but alignment of the body parts is gonna be the biggest b***h ever. I only bent my rad support 1.5' back and nothing alligns correctly. If you have money to buy a new rad support, then by all means rebuild it.

Torches and heavy hammers FTW!!!!!

If I were u I would find a s13 shell and put everything from the s14 in the s13, motor, wheels, 5 lug, rear subframe and diff, etc...

Would make a nice s13.

Never claimed to be a photographer. Anyway car is comming along good. Interior is finished complete with new airbags and dashpad. engine is rebuilt and ready to drop in. cleaning and de-greasing engine bay. It appears i also have a power steering leak.so here are some new pics.



All back together. Primed and close to ready for paint. Just bought a hood and front bumper cover from another great NICO club member. Hoping for Blackhawk Black Pearl what do you think?
