Well, I spent the last couple of days
building a fender roller

I had all of the materials sitting around from other projects leftovers
even a couple of old snow mobile bearings for the roller
the plastic was from stock I bought to make my own set of hammers
for pounding out my aluminum car
Hope it works

 

ah nice i need one but i cant make one or afford to buy one right now

 

+1 Dude you're a god when it comes to making stuff

 

Thanks guys
I am thinking of loaning it out once we finish using it
on the 240SX coupe
assuming it works ok
Probably just lend it out for cost of shipping

 

How nice of you lol How come you started a thread instead of putting this with your build thread?

 

I don't know who would see it ...
probably get missed in all those pics
i suppose....probably post update when we are done using it
then loan it out.... probably enough pieces in that thing ...it
could have been it's own build thread...haa

 

great way to put it lol

 

nice

 

Dude, what CAN'T you do? Who the hell builds their own fender roller? LOL.

Very nice, man.

My fender is rusted in the rear...not sure how to take care of that. My body guy says I need a whole new rear fender; but I really don't feel like spending all that money on a 95 240. He quoted me like 3k to fix everything on the body of my car.

You seem like you do a lot of DIY, can I fix it easily, you think?

 

3k? lol thats a new mint s14 price haha

 

I don't have any experience in body work....and I don't know how to
paint.....I hate rust.... Body work is no easy job, in fact it is
one of the things I'll gladly pay for .... fixing it yourself? I don't know
if I'd jump into that

 

You mean a S13 lol

 

Depending on how bad it is. I took a year of auto body and dealt with a lot of rust. On a friends dsm I had to make my own quarter panels for it. If it's not too bad you can just cut the rust out and patch it with some metal. Have a picture of it?

 

Oh, man, I don't mean to thread jack. I'll start my own thread once I take pictures -- if anything I could PM you too. Sorry Don.

Yeah, dude for 3k I could get a whole nother car, so I wasn't really looking to do that, right? Haha.

 

not where i live

3k will you a minty s13 with a silvia front end and a sr20
