KieltsHonda's Build Thread 56K ok

[kieltshonda]

I picked up the 300zx for $1000. They owner had about $3,000 in receipts from the last year. It came with a rebuilt motor.

The civic is under total reconstruction.
I can't decide on what color: Championship White or Pheonix Yellow?

 

[AlexM]

Go with a nice JDM yellow. White is played, and you don't see too many sick JDM yellow hatches

isnt it a coupe

 

[kieltshonda]

Yeah, its a coupe. I've never seen a yellow coupe, thats why I want to do it.

Good come up on the 300zx. BTW, what do you do for a living? lol.. so many projects at one time..

 

[kieltshonda]

I had about $5000 saved up and ive just been working for $10 an hour and mowing for $30 an hour

BTW Should i paint the wole chassis or just the exterior and the sills?

 

[kieltshonda]

I decided I'm going to completely strip the car down and paint everything and get everything perfect.

 

[kieltshonda]

I had someone weld on new quarters and they arn't flush with the body the throw the angle off. Do you think I could fill it with filler or should i just reweld them?

 

[EG Hatch]

im not body man but id say redo them. go look at PPG flame yellow, that is a good colour.

Do you know any sites that I can look up PPG colors? My local distributor got washed away in the flood.
