1998 Nissan 200sx se Restoration

I originally bought this car in March of 2000, decided it wasn't for me and tried to sell it:

Nissan 200sx Original

I ended up selling it to a relative who trashed it and gave it back to me. This car had major damage to the interior. The cigarette lighter caused a small electrical fire under the dashboard which melted the dashboard and completely blackened the interior. Here are some pictures I took during the restoration process.

I sold this car for $2300.00. I told the history and showed all these pictures to the person that bought it. I lost a lot of time and money on this car but learned very many good lessons.
