[C. Senor]

well props to your dad for doing something, even if it is smashing the windows...lol. but yeah hopefully you guys finish the whole thing...and that car def looked like it was worth 300.

[Full-Lock]

if you put a motor in that car and a back window, 30 dollar junkyard tails or wetsand the stock ones, it wouldntve been a total piece of shit. but now it sure is. way to go

interior looked nice too. way to go on that awesome 'gutting' job. kill yourself for real

dude, get a life.

there was no straight panel on this car! front end is totally screwed. roof has a dent, both quarter panels are screwed, doors are still alright. and i tried to get the quarter glass out on the drivers side as hard as i could. tried and tried to cut it out, but it just broke. so i just smashed the passengers side. as far as saving any of the parts i have 3 other parts cars out back. i'm not worried about haveing a good interior. more pics will be up within the hour

If the clearences are ok it's fine, im saying CHECK your shit, before you throw a motor in the trash.

And plus he doesnt need a whole entire engine he needs just the head if this really is the case.

wastfuckinful

Ive sold a couple sr' head to people with no caps, they took their shit into the machine shop, cleaned it up checked the clearences and are racing on them now...dont bullshit me

haha

and to chemercer the more people who smash out rear hatch windows the better

[chmercer]

how about try to fucking take care of something that you paid money for

what a pathetic build thread

makes me want to sell my car

but then some asshole would probably crash it and id see it on zilvia in a year and some 15 year old would be trying to turn it into a truck

[steve shadows]

you dont think half the people are crashing their piles of shit trying to be initial d already? haha

Hey man, nothing wrong with 15 year olds.

[chmercer]

typo, 15 year old 'dude'

[eds13]

looking at the pics i posted before, makes the car look like its in really good shape. this is going to be so much more fun. as far as the motor goes. i'll prolly rebuild the KA before i would just put stuff back together and hope it would work. i'm not quite that dumb
ok heres a bunch more pics. plans are to line-x the bed when i'm done. just ordered a bunch of sheet metal for the thing this afternoon.


and i'm def 19 -_-

[5t341tH]

wow looks cool already. i would like more picture updates

[UfoZ8myCow]

You going to put some kind of rear window back there or just leave it as a sheet of metal??

[kouki_s14]

you used a hood?

the skeleton makes it look bleh

[pr0ject TRUENO]

I hope not either.

[dirtdiggler666]

you used a fuckin hood?? ummm im gunna keep my mouth shut, have fun dude

[Ninjabread]

Doesnt look likeyou left much room for the seats to tilt back.. have fun sitting straight up

[eds13]

yeah man! i'm doing this cheap too! using an extra hood ftw! but yeah i plan on putting a rear window in, i need to find something tho... i have a rear window out of a dodge dakota i might try to make work.

and i looked at how much room i'll have in there for the seats too. and i should be fine. you just cant make out the angle very well in the pics.

[ms!3]

why didnt you guys remove the sound deadener before you started welding in the back "wall".

[speedstar01]

seriously that thing would have been worth $500 easy,if it was a rust free shell. especially here in NY where 240s are very scarce. i say good buy and good luck if it were me though i wouldnt have gone the truck route

[yokotas13]

dude
props

not how i would do it, but its not too bad

if its a track car, it iwll have a bucket

but you shouldnt haev used a hood dumbass

dad kinda got a little bit ahead of schedule.lol. but its not a big deal, it will be covered by the floor plan anyways.

[johngriff]

Hahah, you guys are actually doing it! That is freaking sweet.

Go father/son team for fathers day!

[MURPHY]

wow... you have to bring it out sometime soon i wanna see

[eds13]

i plan and on taking it to VIR in october. you can see it there for sure. or just come down some weekend and see it

[yokotas13]

you better cage it
anbd run the rear bars to the back of the frame "rails"
and branch off ot the strut towers

[eds13]

i'm going to do all three. i'm picking up the metal for the frame rails of the edge of the bed tomorrow

[yokotas13]

eds, you motivated me
im buying a hatch when i go back to the states nad taking a sawzall to it.....
noone uses the hatch for naything but tires anyways, and you can fit wayyy more in there

[stinky_180]

lol at the hood

[89dc240]

I like it. Wouldn't do it myself of course, but I like it. I definitly wanna see this finished. This is supposed to be your dad's track car?

[eds13]

meh, dad and i are both putting time into it. he paid for the car and to pick it up. i went down and picked it up. he's getting the coils for it. i have the seat for it. and we are both putting time into it. and we'll both drive it. so its ours.

[s14_rob]

you should make a gate on it that would be gangster status
