74' Datson 140J 'Violet' parts needed...

Post by skutaman »

Hey guys,

I'm writing this on behalf of a customer of mine (And fellow Datsun owner :thumbsup: ) Alvin 'AJ' Johnston.

He has a 140J in 'resto' mode and is looking for a few parts...
I don't have any pics of it just yet (or seen it myself), but I intend on doing so!
His mother owned the car for years, and has gifted it to him.
She is getting on now, and he wants to get the Violet up to spec before she passes.

So, Hes after:
-Straight rear bumper (He's willing to get re-chrome jobs done)
His bumper is twisted and dented, He might get his straightened if he can't find another,
-Interior roof lining (Hes got a dirty rip in his)
-Seats (Mainly the front, but a full set would be mint!)
The seats are torn (Wont pass WOF)
-And a gear shifter boot.

So if anyone has any goodies up for grabs, or know of any please let me know.

Im about to throw away the bottom half of a 140j rear seat, has no rips, but has had a replacement section of vinyl put in it at some point, it is noticeable by the difference in texture/pattern.
Nothing wrong with seat other than the repair.
I want it gone asap as its annoying me in my storage.
Let me know asap if youre interested, otherwise Im throwing it out on monday.
Cheers.
