So I bought this S14 Zenki from a kid who lives near me for 750$. It has some damage done to the body but the major thing I have been fucking with was the front right Radiator Core support damage. It's a bitch because it Throws everything out of alignment and I have to get it fixed for everything to be correct. I've been asking around who can help me, And I have no support. None what so ever, None from my family None from friends just none at all. So I guess I have to work on this car all on my own with No past experience with Nissans (240sx's in General). I don't know what to do. Here are some images of the damages.

I don't know what to do.

Have you tried talking to the local body shops around your area? Many of those guys do work outside of work to make extra cash. Ask around, and get someone to give you a hand. They may charge you, but it may worth having a pro help you.

have you even talked to any workers at a body shop? don't talk to the guy who runs it or too a group of people. go one on one with some of the workers and usually a lot are looking to do work on cars outside of work.

another thing you could do is let your car be used in a school's auto class. search for some occupational centers that have an auto body program and usually they're do the work for free. pretty much all you ever for is the materials.
