Fabricating the Most Essential Part for the 240sx Restoration

I've been doing a lot of thinking about the best way to install the new panel on the crashed 240sx. I figured it would be easiest to have a jig to bolt the entire car to, that way every piece lines up perfectly.

In order to make a jig, I needed a perfectly straight and rust free 240sx S13. Luckily Omar (@part.it.out) said I could use his spare shell. After removing Omars parts, I installed my parts to his chassis, then I grind off the paint and dirt, then weld all 3 major components together (front and rear subframe, and trans mount).

I cant wait to install this jig onto my 240sx restoration project. This step has most defiantly been the most important.

I spent the last 7 years building this 1990 Nissan 240sx from the ground up by myself. I swapped out the KA24e for a KA24de. Then once more for a RB25det out of a R34 Skyline and couldn't be happier. I have also converted the 240 to right hand drive, (which ended up saving my life!) After installing a few drift parts; such as a hydro E - Brake, and dual rear calipers, welded diff, solid suspension bushings and more, the car handled amazing. Surprisingly this S13 was able to drift and stay sideways perfectly despite the damage that was done to it.
