My 71' 240z project ... =)

[van]

Haha come on Mull, you're killin' us here!

[mull]

This thread has been sleeping for way too long, if you ask me.

That's what two mighty brave souls thought too. This is why

they've volunteered to get the project up and running once

again. Meet (and praise) Huddinge Kustoms.

Time to mount the rear suspension, seats, pedals, seatbelts

and so on in their respective place.

It's been a long time coming - but here it is - part 18 : )

Enjoy!

PICS

Big whee... No weels keep on rollin'!

The Skyline suspension put in place. Kind of anyway. Andreas to the right.

Henrik drilling out some spot welds.

Very nice.

Rear suspension is gossiping with the spare wheel tub. It's for sale.

Rear rails gone. More chopping up to be done...

Aluminium bushings for the rear suspension.

Always good to have some mounts as well...

I sure hope you've got eliminators for that rear suspension's Super Hicas 4 wheel steering system...

Looking great! I didn't know you posted on this site, I was following your other one over on HybridZ.

[mull]

I'm pretty much overwhelmed right now. I used to apply a saying, by a wise swedish childrens comicbook

turtle - Skalman, to this build. The saying (roughly translated) is: Hurry slowly. When Huddinge Kustoms

took the reins, they kicked Skalmans saying right off the wagon and put rockets on it. So uh... How many

days did it take to construct, build and finish the R32 Skyline IRS-swap? Answer: 2 days. Sure sure, there

are some welds still to be done - but I'm *bleep* blown away by the progress made in the last few days.

In fact, my brain is starting to melt down - so here are some (23) pictures of todays progress!

Oh, one more thing: mull Huddinge Kustoms

Like I said, chopping up - not yet finished.

Mr Andreas - aka. chop-meister aka. Rear-IRS-master: D

See where the massage has been placed?

Some muscle-breakage occurred (not to much surprise) thus, Hugo needing some attention.

And grinding.

Sore muscles fixed up : )

Chop chop. Bloody rust! Death, rust and taxes, I tell you.

Some L-profiles welded in place to hold the measuring device.

This is what all tape measures dream of being reincarnated as : )

[mull]

After measuring, Andreas started cutting up some square tubing.

...in order to have something to mount the front mounts to.

No holes = no mounting = break out the drill!

Chop chop!

Stepping it up a notch further. Tubing inside the square piping.

Weld.

[mull]

Welding inside - who needs Intel? : )

And in a flash, all mounts were done!

No words needed. I'll do some cheering instead! WOop woop! : D

Pretty tight fit : )

Some flares might be needed - the tires are 185 wide : P

Andreas is pretty pleased with the progress as well : )

Like I said, very very pleased Andreas - My smile is twice as wide : )))

And this is what it looks like from the side. More to come...!

Even after this monster (spoiler) update, there's a new video coming

sometime in the near future. I just have to try to make room for the

video on my harddrive : )

Woop woop! : )

[Alfadog]

Keep up hte great progress Mull

I just wrote a bit of a feature for your car on http://grandjdm.com/

Hope you don't mind.

Arrr finally more news! Great to see it's still coming along nicely.

[srFairladyZ]

Wow, crazy progress since the last time I peeked at this thread. Shier madness! :stupid:
