^ looking at that thread, you won't have a problems fixing the G up haha. Can't wait to see what you do to it. Also look on eBay for some parts sometimes there are good deals.

 

Well first of all I got my Oil pan changed. Was smashed pretty bad, I guess someone ran over something badly.

Also weather has gotten warmer lately and finally took the front apart. There is some frame damage there as you can see. The frame was swayed pretty bad to the right.

I Already pulled the frame out to it's specs, but now I'll need to section the frames since there are buckles in them.

Looking for front clip assembly if I can find one, but if this week I won't I will start buying some parts from the Dealer.

here the lowe oil pan being changed, and the oil vacuum just had the cover dented, so I just pulled it out a little and it was fine.

 

Tore the front down and getting ready to pull the frame...



Here's one of the rails with the torn buckles there.


Measuring and pulling...

 

Wow this is great, your actually getting this done and ya as you start unwinding the car more broken things will show up, i just hope you get it to what you want it to be soon within your budget. G/L

 

Yeah I of course knew that lol
Well my goal is not to spend more then $5K on the repairs. At the end of the project I'll post the prices of all the things I've done and spent on.

 

Looking good. 5k is tight but doable. Might have to get some use parts.


Looking forward to see the finished project.

 

Came from the .org too. 3 Maxima's later ended up here with G too. Nice find actually, doesn't look too bad for repairs and looks like your on the right track.

 

Nice to see something different, good luck and looking forward to the updates

 

Awesome Max and good luck with the G!

 

wow! GL and keep us up to date on the progress

 

The max is very very clean. I sold my '04 max to buy my '08 G, always liked maximas.

 

nice project and very clean maxima.

 

nice nickname i came from a maxima as well. good luck with the rebuild

 

thanks for the comments guys! Will do keep you all updated. I usually update on the page where the last comment was left, not on the 1rst page.

haha i see here is another Shurik lol. Are you Russian/Ukranian by any chance?

 

Well this past Saturday I finished pulling the left strut tower which was 1/2" in... and started sectioning the rails.

Well that's how the left rail looks like from the front view when I sectioned off the front horn piece, if you know what I mean. The outer piece is caved in like crazy as you can see.


Here are those rails being sectioned. The upper left rail and lower right and left are sectioned as well. (btw I already received my new rail pieces) will post more progress soon.
