[mumeisenshii]

Just got a 240sx for my lill bro. he started being stupid so i kept it. But had issues and tried to sell but people are flakes or cant read description. Has rod knock by the looks of it and front right frame damage. I have ALL the tools (thanks dad) so im gonna have fun and maybe manufacture parts to sell. Here my project!!!!
Machine shop/ "men we have rebuild, we have the technology, better than it was before" lol










Well to start if off i started chistling away the tar and using a metal brush to clear remove rust spot and see the damage

Starting griding down the rust

Was starting to rain so i just put a primer coat for the day and start all over again tommorow and maybe weld a patch on the hole

+1 but in the back it looks like a normal vertical drill press. anyways i would love to be in your family or maybe have access to that milling machine. now only if i can afford one and get my hands on a few end mills, drill bits, blue prints on various parts, stock, and i would have a blast!

Better give the front shock towers some attention before the separate from the chassis.

why the random z in the title

he's obviously gona put the Z emblem on the front bumper in place of the nissan one on the front bumper guys, duuuhh..

[badbob2121]

ya the z kinda threw me off, but atleast your doing the necessary repairs first.... like that RUST!!! looks good so far though

[mumeisenshii]

Well the z stands for first letter of my last name and also thinking of putting a 240z front hehe. Ill try to update you guys what im eventually gonna do with my spare time. Majority if produce many parts for the 240sx to use in both my cars and sell like fender braces and roll cages for cheap and i mean cheap but good quality.
Here updated pics but first the shop



O the mig

Still remember when my lil bro drilled his finger on this lol

extra set of tools

Anyone want to buy a 70 Dodge Challenger Windshield?

Heres what i did today

So far what i did until i looked at the time to head to work argh...... dont you hate it

Wasted bout 20 min getting to this lol

[bigbadberry3]

Stripping that deadener and tar was by far the worst part when I redid my interior. Dry ice did help somewhat but no matter what technique you use, it'll require some elbow grease.

[benz88]

try ice then heat it with a torch. It flys right off. lol

[terry_240sx]

i would have just picked up a diff. shell but thats just me haa

[mumeisenshii]
