if you know what you're doing going into it, it can look quite good. i did not, and it still looks pretty good. if i did it again, it would like way nicer, like teddys.
I planned on doing it once i get all my final panels on the car. I plan on doing all the basic steps and such to atleast make it look decent.

+1. I love a nicely done rat rod, which is hard to do. Alot of them look like piles of junk. Kinda like some of the 240's that came across my mind when i saw this thread. Although i clicked on it to see if someone pulled it off, and a few have. chalk it up to different folks, different strokes. Although i am still confused as to why a track slut would have a body kit

P.S. If one of these had the paint job Fisch put on that 510 it would be freakin awesome. zer...age=1. Didnt someone on the site do a Ratsun Truck also?

I don't understand how people can compare these certain S-chassies to Hondas? I don't see retarded modifications done by a 16 year old kid. These cars are actually being used....

I'm "making" ghetto look good? I never knew I can control personal opinions over the interwebs. Does it help that I was from the ghetto?

Beat up looking cars will always exist; nissan/240sx or not.

It's just a phase people will and should grow out of.

if you dont want [cant afford] to buy $600+ body kits everytime you mess themup drifting then you make the best of it and move on[sideways]..like some off-roaders like the look of a muddy heavily driven truckas apposed to some pristine show truck that will never get dirty..

mine looks damn good for being 100% original in the body but i dont run it extra hard like the homies on here and elsewhereso posting a pic of my car here wouldnt belong in the thread

dont you people understand at all... he said post up pics of beaten and battered drift cars-not to b**** cus you dont like it-cus if looks meant everything in driftingthen no one would probably be going sideways around turns at 50+ MPHif you're not contributing to the thread-why waste ur time and GTFA

if you're wanting to look at show cars you are in the wrong threadsometimes sh*t happens-so tie that bumper up and DRIFT ON! PURPOSE BUILT FOR THE WIN

If its not your car then why worry about it.

I personally love this look, gives a car character. But I also love a clean car. so it goes hand and hand.

oh i completely agree, these cars have much character. but just as you said its become a "look"...a trend...is there a reason to roll out with no bumper if you are capable of putting one on? no reason to be off, it just is...i think thats wannabe s*** right there, as the person is just trying to attain a "look". if you dont agree thats cool and i wasnt really calling anyone out, just saying i see it turning into a showcase for such.

Wtf @ this thread.. Beat up and s***ty = purpose built?What a lame excuse.

Purpose built Purpose built Purpose built

Oh oops, they all have some proper paint. I guess they aren't built to do their job.

s***ty car = s***ty carDon't throw the "It's purpose built" crap around just because your car looks ugly.
