So basically a lot has happened since I posted last.
I've decided to dedicate this 240 and turn it into a "Drifting4Alzheimer's" build. I recently bought a vinyl cutter as well so I will be doing all of my own graphics once it is painted. The graphics will all be geared around Alzheimer's Awareness.
So just some quick updates: Still working on the body kit. Ended up having to stop for quite a while due to covid and not being able to go get it from the shop I was working on it at. I take care of my Grandma full time who has dementia and stomach cancer among other things so I was unable to go anywhere in order to keep her safe.
Since I have had it back I've removed all of the old carpeting/sound deadening/etc. Currently waiting on a roll cage and then will weld that in/raptor coat the inside. Also not putting the stock dash back in. I will be making an aluminium one to go in instead. I originally wanted to wrap this 240 but have since decided to prep it myself and have someone paint it for me. The previous owner had it painted and their prep job was atrocious. Paint peeling/chipping off all over the place. Once I get the body kit fitted I will worry about doing that. Also got some 2.5" wheel spacers so it doesn't look like my 240 skipped leg day anymore (eventually I will buy a set of wheels with a better offset)... as well as a Grip Royal neochrome/carp etched steering wheel/NRG hub, Corbeau Evolution seats/harnesses, etc. Among other small things, blah blah blah, here are loads of pics.

Anyways.. Obviously I have a boat load of work to do still but it's moving along at least.
