    Then flames, stick-on bullet holes, etc.

          Beautiful car Fred! Love the raised white letter tires and the black stripe! If you plan on keeping it stock, then stay off the Nissan forums! I'm guessing there is a big, bad engine swap that the Nissan guys are doing to those things. Probably a V6 or a 2ABCD-blah,blah (whatever it's called) DOHC 4cyl. I kinda like the stock steel wheels....looks vintage '80s.

            Thanks Brian! Haha yeah! I don't mind these wheels but the ones I'm getting are OEM Nissan from the 80s mesh ones, I think they will make the car.

                    Mesh basket wheels, like the old BBS style, would make that thing look a lot like an older 325 BMW......

                              I love driving this car Got some parts on the way for it already, got a cassette to MP3 adapter for it, works great and the MP3 fits the cubby hole perfectly! Winning! Didn't want to ruin the 80's look of the inside with a cd player in there..

                              Also while browsing on ebay for parts.. redline makes a WEBER carb kit specifically for these! Woohoo!
