BUILDING A R34 SKYLINE body in MINUTES | Poor Man's GTR [EP15]

I don't think I really realised how much time and effort was put into this wrecked/salvaged R34 Skyline before making this video.. The idea was to build my dream car on a budget, but quickly turned into a full restoration (still budget friendly, will be revealing total cost shortly). All I can say is, if you don't have a clue what you are doing (like myself), it is still possible to turn something that nobody would look at into something that nobody can get their eyes off..
This project car is more than just a build.. It is a test. A test to see how patient I can be, how long I can stay awake for and how much time I can put towards something without giving up.
I would like to THANK each and every person that has helped so far with the build!

I would also like to thank each person that has showed support throughout this build series! I can guarantee you, there is no way we would have made this much progress this soon without people wanting updates and more videos. It’s been a huge motivation 🙌

You took on to be fair a massive project beens the damage it had and to of kept going to where you are now is impressive as most would of either not bothered if gave up. You pushed yourself out your comfort zone in a lot of different things on this build. This shows that if you put your mind to it anything is possible. I take my hat off to your sir 👍

It really is amazing how much work was put into this. I just wish I had the tools to do so.

[@dusktw7418]

You changed my mind from "i want a skyline" to "i will get a skyline" 2023 is going to be the year, that i buy a skyline. Until then, every cent i dont need to spend for food/ rent is going to be saved. In 2023 my training as a car mechanic is finished and i will then build my own skyline. I just hope it going to look atleast half as good as yours does.
