\Well i thought i would post up some pics of my c210 which i picked up a little while ago.

It's a great car. The interior is great. It's so clean and nearlly everything is there. Minus the little switches for the lights on the headliner.

The body needs abit of work as you can see. a few rust spots here and there. I just plan to bogg and/or fibreglass repair them. Also im just painting it in the plain white it came from factory with, Im going to attempt to paint it myself and see how i go. Being white i can see how i can stuff it up that bad.

The motor is just the run of the mill stock L24 mated to a auto transmission which is soon to be a 2L turbo motor and manual gearbox. Trying to make it into a c211/c210. Just somthing that i nice to cruise in and get's the looks

Now so far iv'e just taken apart the front end and fenders, started painting the inner fenders matt black just to protect it from rust and plus i don;t want the white to be spayed there, cause i quite like that black in there.

It's gonna be a decent project for me. My plans are to finish it before christmas or before this year is over. Working away means i get a solid 4 weeks till christmas to work on it with no work commitments at all. so i should fly through it.

My plans which what i want to get done in the near future are ...

.fix rust and prep for paint
. paint car lol
. have a decent old skool stereo, all gear used is from early to late 90's
. Paint my 240z alloys and get some slightly streched tyres
.hopefully find some mr30 front struts and calipers etc...
. give the engine a service with all new oils and filters and what not
. Either tune the stock carby that;s on it. or chuck on my twin side drafts
. replace the worn out bushes ( only the ones i can do at home )
. Just basiclly give the whole car a genral tidy up ready for rwc ( must restrain from getting dodgy roady )


My future future plans ( i know it;s abit early but i got my mind set on what i want to do )

. L20et and manual conversion
. R31 rear disc brake conversion
. Some nice rims, 6.5" wide for front and 9" wide rear
. some jdm hot plates
. jdm fender mirrors
. jdm fibreglass guard flares



Hopefully by the end of all this it will be one good daily driver/ show car

Here are some pics at the old owners, It's just chilling waiting for me to come along and take it away
