Nissan Laurel C32

I picked this up for one of the lads a few weeks back, and after a chat we came to a deal and now im the proud owner of this Nissan Laurel.

Its an 1986 English Laurel with a 2.4L straight 6 (138BHP from new but im sure a few pony's have escaped since then) and only has 79000 miles!!

There is not much plans for this, first thing is to get it VRT'd, get nice wheels, lower it, and then have it as a weekend cruiser :)

This is the First RWD car iv ever bought that had an engine ha ha ha ha ha

So finally got the car home tonight. Laughed my ass off when I realised this car talks to you, telling you if the keys are in the ignition or if the lights are on. There's electric windows, sunroof, mirrors, wipes on the headlights, central locking, bla bla bla...

Suspension wise it looks like s13 coilovers will bolt straight into the rear, and up front s13 coilovers can will only fit if the front hubs are changed so im on the lookout for 4 stud front hubs.

I don't think I should do anything to the interior other then give it a general valet, seats are nice enough but I don't think bucket seats will suit this unless everything was reupholstered.

The body deffo needs work, paint has faded and peeled in places so a respray is on the cards, any suggestions?? There is rust on the rear arches and I think there is some rust on the floor, so ill prob need to weld sheet metal to replace it.

I hav no idea what to do style wise, any ideas and suggestions are all welcome :)
