My 180sx Drift Car Project 2013

Well lads while im waiting on parts to rebuild the sr20 i said id go at cleaning up the shell abit. Plans are to clean all the inner arches back and re stonechip the lot clean down the engine bay and spray that all up, spray the cage and the interior and remoe all the arms and subframes and clean them all up and spray them too so the cars minty fresh again.
Small bit of suface rust creaping in so i said ill nip it in the bud b4 it gets worse and will have nothing to worry about in years to come.

Few pics
