Datsun 620 tailgate

Hi guys. I'm after a 620 tailgate. Don't mind if it's a bit rusty or seen better days, or if someone knows where to get Tai remake ones then that would be awesome too. Cheers

Re: Spotted! - Datsuns spotted in the wild photo thread.

Went to Omaka vintage car museum yesterday when passing through Blenheim and seen a few cool datsuns there. There was even a b310 wagon in the carpark but didn't get a pic of that unfortunately

Datsun 1200 ute/sedan parts needed

After a few parts for the ute. One of the access panels in the tray (front left or right rear, doesn't matter which), one of the bars that goes over the rear window and some roof gutter trim chrome. Unsure if sedan gutter trim fits or not. I measured my gutter and its about 115cm long. If anyone cou...

Re: Jordan's 1200 Ute

The parts hoarding continues as I wait for the space, time and money to get this into work and rip into it properly. Got myself a pair of chrome front indicators (lenses are shagged but I only got them for the surrounds), b210 swaybar and a b210 rear bumper. So now I have to decide if I go with the ...

Re: Otodats President

I wouldn't bother cavity waxing the front until the whole car has been painted if you are doing it in a spray booth. If you cavity wax before hand, it can go runny again while on the bake cycle in the booth and either pool in the lowest point or run out of any drainage holes. Just a heads up

Re: Jordan's 1200 Ute

Grille restorations the last couple days. Bought a 3-piece metal grille, pulled it apart, painted and polished it and even had a crack at getting one of the bigger dents out of one of the chrome trims. It's not mint but it takes your eye off it. Now to figure out the best way to mount it using the f...
