My 240K (C110) Is Back Home From Paint.

[Al Despo]

Thats fantastic looking tough cant wait to see it finished

The genuine tail light surround is a grey colour, it's much darker than your paint work and would look awesome IMO but it's personal taste. Are you looking at a set of JDM tail lights? Would look awesome. I've just rebuilt mine.

Yer im going to go JDM lights down the track, the tail light surround can always change colours later if i want. The lights look really good, starting to do some work on your 110?

The car has just been sitting for the last month around chirstmas-new years my work really gets flat out, hope to get back into it in the new year.

Cheers Brad

Yeah they came up good as new. Yeah slowly starting work on it. Pulling things off and doing them one at a time.

I'm trying to decide what to do with plastic that needs to be re-chromed. The GTR tail light rings I have need to be re-done and I'm not sure if it's just easier to buy a rep set or what.

Hmmm sydney weather is crap plus only have a single garage so work has been slow.

I got some new parts to fit up tho if we get a dry weekend!!!

Thanks to john for the window winders

And some parts already started to fit to motor in the one fine day we had this week.

Couple of things learnt today, first and most important is always ask before buying lol. And here are the rest.

240k and 240z do not have the same door handles.

Ebay photos looked close

But different shape and size

C110 and C210 do not have the same door locks.

Look the same from the front

But from behind the they are different, i tried changing the backs over but they are different too.

Installing this required more skin then i liked lol

Also 240z pedal boxs are not the same as as 240k, but the 260c looked about right but was not able to strip this car of it.

The car with locks, handles and fuel cap installed.

[chinna]

i don't think you could call it a project car with out some set back or mistakes

[Adzmax]

Nice fuel filler cap, is that a new one?

What are you planning on doing for door skins and seat trim etc? I'm investigating re-trimming at the moment

Nar fuel filler is old one, i have a new breather tho.

My trim is mint, but if your doing a GTR style i may be keen, on a set too, what are you going to do with

the seats tho?

[blk180]

Double post.

[Socrates]

fuel filler on passenger side hey?

i thought all skylines were drivers side fuel fillers.

[Silent Shadow]

dont these have em on both sides?

[noddle]

dont these have em on both sides?

No, left hand side, but there is a vent on the right hand side

[blk180]

Yep thats right the vent has a nice "R" on it.

[Silent Shadow]

ahh k never had the privelege of meeting one of these in person before.

[GTR-N1]

I shall look forward to seeing this in the flesh!

[blk180]

Im feeling 8-12 weeks this should be on the road, baring un forseen mishaps.

Im keen to drive it, motor in this week if i can get a clutch and flywheel.
