Default trading crap for different crap. david48 "build"

Well, I figured me and my picture whore self would start a build thread on my TR typical 240. I'm not done yet, actually I'm far from done. I'm still not sure if I'm going to do a legit paint job on it, or just rattle can. I think if I go through the bother of getting the core support straightened out, it might get real paint. I'm not sure just how much money will be spent.


The night I picked it up-


There's a bag on the window because the driver's side window regulator was busted. I already took care of that.


And day 1 of work began. I took out almost all of the interior to clean it out. It's easier to work on a clean car imo.




Primer on some spots to see what I have to work with

This pic shows all 4 colors it has. It was originally white, then spray painted black. The hood and driver fender came from a red car, and I'm using grey primer. Extra TR points!


The next day-

Zipties are more drift/TR points!

The interior came back together

Then I figured out I had a busted passenger side front hub. I'm still looking for one btw.

This is pretty much how it sits right now. I'm going to be putting in a new steering rack today. I might work on the paint also.
