Haven't been got any sleep at all within last 2 days. Some old-school drifting clips inspired me a lot to continue building my 86.
One of the first things I wanted to work on, were the wheel arches. They just HAD to be wide. Rolling them wouldn't helped me much, because there was a fair amount of rust. So? I cut fenders & pieces off a junk car, did some work on the fenders & then welded on. I misplaced them only a little, almost perfectly symmetrical. Immediately bogged & sanded & sanded & so on. I also fixed that odd dent Now it's pretty good but missing paint. I'll repaint it probably when I've done all the bodywork. With "new" arches, I managed to lower the ride around 2 inches. I added spacers to rear & welded the front arms to wider with more angle. DIY FTW. Oh and also, I bought small thingy with switches on it & programmed it to change light modes. US park lights, fogs, etc. Of course, I couldn't have done this all without my friends, credit. I took several before & after pictures with my Canon, but only managed to upload one picture I took. I'll show the rest of the images later because I forgot the camera at other garage.
