Figured it was time to show off my recently purchase 240SX

[Snappshoota]

2nd post..

But anyways I picked up a 93 240SX SE hatch for 300 bucks, all because the starter was shot and some body damage. Bought it from an older fella who, originally bought it for his son to turn into a drift project.

180k miles but motor still runs strong. Gonna need new exhaust, but already planned on replacing anyways.

Long story short son moved on to other things and i get a steal of a deal.

Here what was pretty much wrong with the exterior:

Looked like someone sideswiped the car.

But after a little pounding, and dent pulling:



Just gotta do a little more smoothing, then imma fill the holes and prolly get the whole car repainted.. (once my funds replenish)

Heres a few more before and after pics:

Nasty Interior:

New door Panels:

Head Unit, 6x9s in doors, and some 4x6's in the hatch with a little cheap sub:



before wiring was tucked under everything

Pretty much how she sits at the moment:(can see all the damage to the left side )

Just thought Id Share.. Not nowhere near as bad *** as some of the other s13/s14's on here, but hopefully one day.

thats some pretty bad damage to just fill with bondo

That needs some serious TLC. Not a bad buy, though! Any rust?

Door and front fender are being replaced as soon as i head to the junk yard this week, asked if they had a rear panel and they said someone already came and cut it..

So imma see how much i can smooth out, and if its not too bad, ill throw some fiberglass over it. It it dont come out any better, than Ill leave it like that till i head to ohio and grab a rear quarter.

No not really, a few tad bits on the door where its crinkled but frame and engine compartment looking pretty good.

Rear quarters arent "replaceable" like the front quarters are.
