240sx TECH articles and how-too's !!!

This is a project that i picked up in Febuary 07 for $300.oo. It had not ran in over 8 years, and everything was soo rusted, it almost couldnt even roll.
Everything was a mess from sitting for so long, it was mice infested and soooo dirty.
I really enjoy workin on this car and 240's in general, they are like a bastard child, but you still love them.
