Default Turbo_Dreams' S13 Restoration/Mods

To those who have seen his car before this week, you all know how bad the rust was and the work it needed to get it rigid again. I picked the car up from Tarmac on last wednesday and got to work on thursday. Everyday we have got a lot of work done and have had some milfs and other women preoccupy us in our wasted time
Anyway this is where we started:
After dropping the front cross member and stripping the engine bay, it was time to weld up the rad support because it was held on by 1, yes, 1 spot weld.(No pictures) Then we went to the fender aprons. We decided that there was too much work fixing them properly, so tub it instead.



Some blood from our good friend James:

Mock up:




One of the greatest "Father Son" moments I have ever seen!!

Joe (Lifewater) practicing his welding

Keep up the good work Joe, practice makes perfect:


Our late night break with the Ferrari was a blast until we rolled it...


Onto today, the drivers side tub:




My MIG welds are getting better:




Hard Parking it....


Finishing up the welding tomorrow, then onto primer and paint after cleaning everything up.

Thats pretty cool tempting to do also

When you do that tho aren't you supposed to braced the frame to the chasis so it doesnt flex or something like that?
