Great work, good to see quality autobody skills being used for repairing a 240sx. I always see awesome full on restos coming from shops in euro towns, much more dedication to metal trade work than here in the US.

Amazing work and dedication to doing what 99% of other people would have said no to!

Keep it up!

Where did you get the wiper motor?

Dirk Jan · 10-10-2014, 07:40 AM

It´s quite common for S13´s to have this amount of rust here in Europe. I´ve actually seen a lot worse, including one of my own previous ones. I can imagine these cars are especially hard to find in Slowakia, so people tend to stick to a shell rather than just scrapping it for another one. As most shells for sale will probably be in worse condition anyway.

Good luck dude, looks like you´re doing a good job!

TSSS22 · 10-10-2014, 12:51 PM

Thanks to everyone.

The wiper motor is original but it was disassembled and renovated.

Yeah there is not too much S13´s, but sometimes outcrop the disassembled car what sold for the parts. I doing this because I'm interested in, and I learning some techniques and know how to repair car body and restoration some parts of this.

im going to assume that it allows the flap disc to flex a little bit......

TSSS22 · 11-25-2014, 01:45 AM

This is for, see through the disk when you using it, so you cant over grind the weldings for example... You will see this in action on this video at 3:40
