I just started a restore on my 86 350x, and it needs alot of work. its almost stripped down the frame. I have the annoying stuck front axle bolt and rusted up header bolts the deal with, but the swinger wasn't stuck, which I figured for sure was. I'm gonna have some pics up soon on my progess.

I have most of the stuff off the frame already, I gotta sledge the axle out and then my next obsticle is the rusted header bolts, I test fitted 250r rear brakes already and got them setup to work on it, I gotta cut one tab off the swinger, then swinger comes out, forks with the tripples and then I bring the frame the motor in it to my friends shop to get the header nuts off.

I found lots of nice stuff, duct tape instead of a hose clamp on the carb, a few small cracks, frozen calipers, rusted brake hub and the motor makes a noise like the valves are horrilby loose(that a whole another game there), also rear shock is blown, bad front wheel bearings.

I'm going to freshen mine up as soon as it gets warm. Not a rebuild, just PC the frame, service the shock and replace some things while I can still get them new OEM.

more fun, the carrier is impossible to get out of the swinger, there isn't much left of the stock carrier after beating it for a hour with a hammer, now I'm gonna have to have it pressed out, there isn't too much suprises left(well except for the motor), the axle came out with not much problem, I know the swingarm bearings are gonna a nightmare, so those will get pressed out too.
