c.davidson Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Not a ton of progress. The fabricator has been busy finishing up a few trucks that were ahead of mine. But we did get the frame down and the front suspension mocked up. The rear subframe is set in place, and the front two subrame mounts are done. Its now time to hack up the rear frame to allow for the clearance needed for the rear upper control arms. Hope to have this done in the next few weeks, so that i can wheel it over to the next shop for brake and fuel plumbing thats needed. Some pics so far: More to come! Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 this truck looks like it could give Bob3 MX520 a run for the money when it is done. Quote Link to comment

hacked521 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 looking freaking good man, nice welds too. Quote Link to comment
KC30 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 That is an awesome build! Looking forward to seeing that completed. It reminds me of a build I dreamed of doing... A 20s-30s rat rod with the S13/S14 suspension (same rear setup you've gone with) and an RB26 powering it. That fell to the wayside due to my current one. I'll be keeping an eye on this!

copydat Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I.... I ..... I see it....... but I don't believe it...! Sick build man - subscribed. Quote Link to comment
dennis Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Is the track width wider on the 240sx? It looks a lot wider. Are you going to run flares if it is or widen the 520 body? Nice build by the way Quote Link to comment
fisch Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Oh man, joy-joy-joy. You know, I have been busy and a bit slack on Ratsun this year and now that I am tuning in a bit more, I have the pleasure of stumbling on threads like this one that I haven't seen. And it is like I just picked up a full season of a great show on DVD, cause I get a huge fix at one time, rather than having to watch one episode a week. But I am still on a cliff hanger here and can,t wait to see more. Thanks for documenting this build for us. It is the definition of EPIC. Quote Link to comment
EmpireFab Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 so i finish the frame for chirs, we went with QA1 in the rear so the bed dosnt get a big hole cut in it. so here it is take a look Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 now that is smexy fabrication Quote Link to comment
EmpireFab Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 now that is smexy fabrication thanks Quote Link to comment
hacked521 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 love the rear section fab work with the qa-1s, a lot cleaner than most s13 hybrid builds. Quote Link to comment
c.davidson Posted December 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Brought the rolling chassis home for some body fitment. First thing was to throw the bed on. Crossing my fingers hoping that I would have little to cut to clear the subframe or QA1 mounts To my surprise, the bed clears it all!!!!!! no modifications needed. Now its on to the cab to see whats needed to clear the front strut towers. Stay tuned! Quote Link to comment
