Default Sidewinder's Skyline Fix and Finish Project

Well most of you I imagine have seen the pictures of my Gen 1 Skyline, but in case you haven't, here are some pictures of it:





I had issues with the cheap plastic lugs nuts breaking, which actually caused the wheel to fly of and broke the mirror and two other lug nuts. After this happened I boxed the car and kinda forgot about it. I found it recently and now I'm working on fixing it!

Update:

I just recently found the two nylon bearings I was missing, which is fantastic because now I can get car running again. I want to get upgraded metal bearings and locking wheel lugs, but for not I'm going to run the nylon bearings and make sure the car still works (though I doubt that will be an issue). I found a tutorial online for cheap locking wheel lugs, which I'm going to use temporarily until I can order the bearings and locking lugs.

After I check to make sure everything works I'll start working on some of the modifications I have planned. So soon here the car should be back in drivable condition!
