    Hey guys, I'm the new girl on the block... the names Alexia.
    My bf (DRFTAE86) has finally finished building my new ride and we had just got it rego'd the other day. We bought the shell for $300 (it had hit a tree/pole and had no engine or driveline or interior) and then bought another rolled 86 with complete engine and interior for another $300.
    Then my bf spent the last month preping and fixing the red shell and slowly moving over all the parts across from the rolled 86 (I helped ).
    In total we have spent just under $2000.Thats on raod with a roadworthy and 6months rego, not bad huh.
    My bf was nice enough to give me some rims and suspention to make my car look a little more drift spec.

    Thought i'd show you guys so u know who's driving it if you see me around.

    Now that mine is at least on the road my bf can get back to getting his 86 back to roadworthy spec.

    This is a pic of when we first bought the shell....




    The radiator support was a bit worse for wear...


    So my bf chooped off the front of the rolled 86 and got it welded on to replace the destroyed front.... and gave it a bit of paint to neaten it up...


    The spare wheel well was also in a scrapable condition...


    So once again, my bf cut it out and got the 1 from the rolled shell welded in...


    And since we had to clean up the boot well i sprayed the interior silver as well...


    My bf's engine bay spray can job...


    My bf assembling the interior...


    Just after we finished dropping in the 4ac and gearbox from the rolled 86...


    And a week or so later (we finally got an appointment for rego) the car was on the road.

    There is something that looks... familiar about seeing an 86 on a trailer.

    Nice, goodluck

    scrubbed up frikken beautifully. red looks pretty good. and yes. the black rims are key.

    nice one. enjoy. congrats.
