I'm new to the forums (kind of) and I just bought a 1995 240sx. the car runs, but needs a new hood, bumper, driver side fender, headlights, radiator, fan, and radiator support. eventually i plan to swap in a different motor and build it, but i want to get it back to working order first. all of this is fairly straight forward for me except the radiator support. i have been having trouble finding one and a couple people have been telling me it requires cutting and welding to remove the old one and have the new one installed...any tips would be greatly appeciated

thanks man, and yea it was. i'm not 100% sure on the details of it, but it looks like the old owner ran up under somebody because the hood and fender are bent, where as the bumper is mostly just cracked along the top of it. the shop i'm buying it from checked the frame out and everything is how it should be. other than the front end though the car is in real good shape
