andrewh Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm new to ratsun, but I decided to start a project build after picking up a 2 door from 'the510keeper'. Since I live in Sacramento, I'm very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with and learn from 'the keeper.' Here's a couple picture of the car the first day i got it I finished stripping everything out of the car. Next step working on replacing the floors. Quote Link to comment

Boaty Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Damn, that car looks awfully familiar. I wonder if James picked this up out of Medford. And I wonder if the floor pan was rusted through because I FELL through it. I wonder if the yellow doors and the fender I have sitting behind my shed came from that car! Quote Link to comment

Skib Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I was wondering how this was coming along. Quote Link to comment
andrewh Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I also picked up a duel cam KA to put in when it's ready I also stripped, sand blasted, shaved and painted the engine bay Then came the color. It's kinda hard to see in the pictures but it turned out way brighter then I thought it would. Quote Link to comment

andrewh Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Here's a little update: I installed the brake and clutch lines and started putting stuff back into the engine bay. I also started working on the engine by removing the ERG stuff and replacing the timing chain. Hope you guys enjoy! Quote Link to comment
