my 240sx ford 302 engine changes (lots of pics)

V8 240sx? Sure! If either the chassis OR the engine is non-Nissan (i.e. SR20 in an RX-7 or LS1 in a 240sx), we've done it.

this is my another car.
im not a patience guy but i spend many hours bondo/sanding this "ready to paint" bumper because car looks very good so it needs a good job.

i use fiberglass/bondo from autozone. it works great and used after welding rear panels.


then spend 2 hours sanding whole car for an extra layer (yeah, one more layer of primer/paint) .

started masking tape at 9am and finish primer/paint at 12pm. i dont spend right amount of time for a good finish. 30 usd material paint job. next week i will sand car again using 60-800 grit and put an extra 2 liters paint. i paint car at 11am-12pm and it was very hot.

i think i will stop again because car drives good, its not very ugly and only thing it needs right now is finish wiring and put all interior panels back. turn up boost and have fun. for a proper good looking paint job, it require a lot of time and paint need to be removed to metal.

:chuckle: :crazy:
