We figured the R has been sitting around long enough, so it was about time to yank this beast out. Having it towed out of the non-operational lot was quite the task, as it was pretty shredded, but we finally got it to a shop that would let us work on it.

Having no wheels on it, my buddy Goose (w/the plumbers crack) and myself went to work on putting its shoes on.





Once the wheels were on, one could not refuse the chance to plop your *** on the roof of a f'ed up GTR.



And of course hump the RB26 =P





With the state of the suspension in the front and the over all damage, we could not push it into the bay, so we had to cart it into there.



Once inside, the stripping began. Take it OFF baby!!!!











After a little surgery, the GTR was allowed to rest in peace once again with no one to bother her.

Not really worried about it atm, its Gooses motor right now. Wing/bumper/tail lights I'll tell my buddy Jay about, but the only salvagable seat was taken by me about 3 months ago or so.
