Lol!
I have committed to working 20hrs a week only. I will have enough to just cover the bills when the baby arrives. Then I have time to work on my Datsun too and be a family man. Funds will still be the issue though!

Should only cost another 4k to finish the car though.

Plans are:
New brake lines from caliper to MC
New alloy radiator
New mandrel bent stainless exhaust
Small intercooler behind grill and piping
Windows in and new wiring
Then there are things like engine mounts
Installing windows etc

Ouch!
The mrs noticed my door poppers had dented my doors!
Had the panel beater in and its gonna cost about a grand to fix the rear valence and those two doors! They have to spray half the rear door on each side to blend the paint to fix the small pin dents on the front doors. Sux to have 3 layer pearl.

Sup Ginge, Kids are not that expensive. Just look for deals now and plan ahead. You will get a few years before they start really costing.
Stink about having to get the panel beater in again man. Maybe you should of kept your nice, original, mechanical chrome 510 door handles

Alot of work under that orange skin, good work fella! It must be hell frustrating to be so close, yet so far away..
Number-plate treatment could be fooled for factory, lush.
1 point of wonderment..why didnt you throw a patch in where the old interior door locks were instead of leaving the lump? Would have been easier than making that penny-patch haha!

What engine was in it when you got it?

New Zealand Datsun Club
