240sx Truck?

[evopanop]

I was wondering if any of you guys have seen that 240sx in the drift videos that looks like a truck? Well, it looked like a 240... I can't even remember now... maybe it was a 180sx, or a Silvia... Anyway, I was wondering if any of you have a website that talks about that car and shows pictures of it. I think it looks really awesome, and I'd like to see more pics and info on it.

Thanks in advance, everyone.

It's a Sileighty truck

Awesome! Thanks for the link, Ghostchild316! Wow... I wonder what all is involved in converting a 240 into that. That's so cool looking, LoL.

what that car is, is a 180SX body with an S13 face on it. so technically, it IS a Sileighty. then, they cut off everything above the waistline from the doors back (which isn't too hard on a fastback considering most of it from the doors back is just window). get rid of the back seats, build a new wall behind the drivers, diamond plate the back and voila! it's obviousley not THAT easy...they probably had to re-shape the fenders a bit and some other stuff too, but that's essentially the just of it. assuming you're a good welder/craftsman/good with metal or building things, or know someone who is, then i don't think that conversion would be all that hard to do yourself if you have the right materials.

Nobushige Kumakubo, the guy who drives that truck, is one of my favourite D1 drivers. he knows how to handle that thing, and also sometimes uses a disgustingly nice S15 instead of the truck.
