Started tackling some bodywork the last couple of days. There were rust in several areas and still are. I mainly focused on the rear lights since that bothered me the most. I had to go apeshit with the grinder at some areas but luckily most of it was surfacerust. So I cut and welded in the new metal and then applied some bondo to fill out the bumps and make it flat and somewhat nice again. Wont be nice until I spray some paint over it which most likely wont happen in the near future. As I've said before this was meant as sort of a missile/driftslut so I dont feel the need to do that ATM.
Enough talking here is some before and after pics!

I also removed the speedhunters logo, nothing against them but I didnt fit IMO, and instead threw on a hoonigan sticker.
I went through the car and discoverd that all four shocks are leaking which sucks. Gives me an excuse to get rid of them aswell as the lowering springs. About the springs, one of previous owners only installed lowering springs in the front for some reason. This leaves me with gay rideheight in the front and even more gay in the rear... cant wait to sort that out!
As far as the engine goes I am constantly on Valolist and Ubay(Cheesy AF I know) looking for parts. I bought an alternator aswell as a starter from one guy who claims they are in working condition. That's all he said. He seemed to be a nice guy and he told me I'd get my money back if they dont work. Ultimately I would like to find a donor engine for a reasonably good price and swap parts from it but my main objective is to make the current engine run!
