I think that covers all the bases of what was done to this car. So here we go build time woooo...

Picked the car up in March, and took it straight to getting caged.

First picture of the car, as I began stripping it out to get prepared for the cage, at this point it still has the previous owners 5 lug on it, that goes away soon.



Car totally stripped out and ready for cage fitting. Good Friend of mine did this cage, I helped a little bit.




At the end of the day looking very haggard.



Started Collecting some parts...


More cage stuff.



New subframe ready to go in.


Test fitting seat before finishing cage


Put a better front crossmember in than the busted up one that came with the car. along with the steering rack bushings.


Then the cage was finished so I took the car back to my garage and got to work on other fun things.

Like re cutting the awful cut fenders


Testing the overs and painting the cage.








Chopped up the front to fit the PBM Highmount


Tossed the motor in


Cut up the dashboard and shoved it in



Mounted the Hydro


Put some more of the motor together



Z brakes, extended studs, fortune auto parts


Put my door panels in with a little bit of dremel trimming


Mounted a fender and the 326 power wing so I could see it all together for once


These tips are large!


Test fitted one of the emitz.


I failed at taking pictures of all the rear suspension and links cause it was all boring and black. So I got tires mounted... 235/40 on an 11.5 lol...


Had to grind nissan off the calipers to fit the wheels, even with a 12mm spacer


Then Got everything buttoned up and lowered it onto 4 wheels for pretty much the first time ever... for me. Things fell right into place.







The next day rolled it out into the sunlight to stare at.






The interior all buttoned up and finished




Then took the car to the alignment shop... horrible specs -6 camber front and -5... that was when I knew the emitz had to go soon. But not yet!
