Default PINKS ls1 240sx

We built this car from donations for the show Pinks.

Major players involved are:

Domination Chassis
1st Try Engineering
JJs Automotive
pittspeed.com


I'll let the pics do the talkin.... Enjoy!!






Cardboard hood in pics cause we didn't have a steel hood, but wanted to get stock looking photos for a duplicate title.






Goodbye you stupid little KA




Goodbye you stupid IRS.



Car well striped, and shop well f**ked





Rear supported






Cause we cut the heck out of the back!!!




More room than an F-bucket!

Big thanks to 1st try guys lending a had with the cage building chores.





One of my favorite things that will never be seen when the car is done.






The cross member needed to be further forward than the main hoop cause I wanted to use 33" ladder bars. So we made pedastal mounts for the main hoop so the driver could still fit.

I think on the Pittspeed site his name is Bravada442. Either way, his name is Sean. He was just telling me bout your TB and the 408 your putting in there. Figured it had to be you because of your sig. He said your a wiz with the III gen stuff.

Im pretty sure he got my stepside tailgate for my s-10 from you. Was white, from a heat & air conditioning company.

Car looks just sick. Can't wait to see the rest of the pics. You guys ever think bout bringing the car back, and having a go at it again for another show?

Ummm, letting the competition in on what your doing is not really a very good idea, I think you should hide as much info as possible so you can barter. The less they know, the better. And trust me, they will find this. Go and ask the pinks build over on HybridZ. I followed along with that and you would be amazed at the info they dug up. Take my advice and delete this thread.
