[Pathfinder-jay]

Well guys its been awhile since Ive updated the site but a rebuild is now taking place and ill be adding new pictures everyday for a month. My 91 pathfinder is being rebuilt at a place called "Carosserie Canada". For those who dont speak french that means a auto body shop Anyhow ive gotten everything pretty much new...

-Back and front bumper

-New corner lamps

-New lock cylinders

-Reconditioned hood

-Reconditioned front driver and passenger doors

-Custom rocker panels

-Custom inner fenders for front and back

-New Rad Support

 

Now some things im researching and need help with are

-Finding a new flooring

-Safety features

-Best option about seating since I have 'like' new seats in the 92 pathy that i can re-upolstered black

 

Some questions to some aswell if you could reply in my forums

-What material should I use when replacing floor plates... all rusted out

- What type of primer would be best used

-Whats the best paint to paint on the inner panels... trunk, arm rest, dash etc...

-Replacing my blower fan

Well Jason,

Is the inside gutted? Are you going to use it just for off-roading? If so, get busy with the elbow grease and rough the inside and Rhino/POR15 it. As for the seats, you can find many kinds of stock, racing, bucket, baja, etc. on ebay. If you are thinking about baja or racing bucket seats, go also with 5-point harness. Not too sure on what your financial situation is, :idea: but if the inside is going to be gutted, why not add a rolecage for extra saftey? Good luck and take some pic's for us all on your progress!

Im just asking what should I do with my floors once i take the carpet out? and what should i do with my seats, thats all...

[jj big shoe]

You can get Rhinoliner at Pep Boys. As for seats, find something you like and bolt 'em in. Check cardomain.com and other truck enthusiast sites and see what people have done with their vehicles to get some ideas. BTW, if you put different seats in, measure carefully to get them centered in relation to the steering wheel or it'll drive you nuts, believe me.

[FLApathy]

believe me.

i can only imagine

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

back on track...

 

you can buy rhinoliner/hurculiner any where that sells parts for cars

 

P.s. wat you mean by extra safety

 

think about what you would put a roll bar in, or what has them

 

-Finding a new flooring

 

are you cutting the old floor out and welding in a new one?

 

-Best option about seating since I have 'like' new seats in the 92 pathy that i can re-upolstered black

 

what do you want to know?, like others have said you can find racing seats on ebay

 

Whats the best paint to paint on the inner panels... trunk, arm rest, dash etc...

 

umm, buy matching parts, the inner fenders just paint black

 

Installing AC

 

if you have to ask that then let a pro do it (not sayin you cant do it or callin out ur mechanical skills, but thats a long hard project)

 

-Safety features

 

for what?, rock crawling, road racing, stock, baja racing?

[Pathfinder-jay]

Flooring is completely being removed...

Seats i think im re-upolstering them

I need to change the flooring from carpet to something else but need something easy to inststall.

- AC well im in refrigeration just not for cars, but im sure i can figure it out

 

New questions.. whats the best way to wire up the lights on my roof... light bar with 4 round offroad lights

Thanks

Jason

P.S. the switches for the lights are where the astray used to be
