My 200sx (s13) project.

Right well I picked this up 3 weeks ago for handy money. Had a few small bits done to it nothing major. Had a horrible kit on it to start with so that was the first thing to get rid of. I kept the rear 50mm arches for the rear.
So after getting the kit off I put on a pre-facelift front and rear bumpers. The engine didn't last too long because of some dodgy rebuild by the previous owner. So found another CA that was fully rebuilt low mileage and had all the receipts plus a trust oil cooler.
Decided to start into the body work and sort out the rust. Not a lot of rust which was a good thing only a small bit on the driver arch and up in the engine bay. Decided to go with midnight purple for the exterior and possibly top secret gold for the engine bay and boot. I am in two minds whether to flare the rear arches or put on the over fenders.
Anyway here are some pics of what has happened in the past few weeks.







Over fenders taken off.









Colour I'm going midnight purple.

Cheers for the comments lads.

I'm starting to like the original kit. I had the option of going SR but decided to stay CA and try get big power from the engine. Should have another update during the week when it's all sprayed

This should look good when done! Good choice with staying with a CA aswel! Alot of people would say your silly but when they are maintained well enough they are good engines for the little money. Good luck with it.
