RHD 13 Vert Build
Hello Zilvia, heres my build thread hope you guys enjoy. I purchased the car from Long Beach California and got it shipped over to my home in Chicago. All local 240's in my area are rusted to shit and I wanted a clean shell to start off with. I was very satisfied when It arrived and it only took about 6 days to ship which is pretty damn good for a 2,100 mile trip. No rust or damage anywhere on the body
Last moments before getting shipped to Chicago
Then there was about a 6 day wait and at midnight she arrived!
July 2013 Couple of my friends helped push the car around the block into the garage
The following morning a few friends came over and we got to work. First the carpet was torn out and thrown away along with many other interior bits that were in poor shape. The whole car reeked of weed.
That fitment
Few days later decided it was time to pull the motor.
Dirty as fuck engine bay
Here are some pics of the old motor
Decided it was time to give the engine bay a new look
