Already have an A series gbox custom fitted to the block.
but am looking at buying a van to grab the gbox out of it.

Slowly but surely.

Also lewis is a gc. Sunday when he was hungover as fuck he still fitted my carpet kit. Has taken my two coupe dashs to get repaired and has fixed my door cards up. I seen the pretty pictures yesterday. Big thanks to him.
been working a lot lately so haven't spent any time on the datsun as of late. Only money.
Yeah, those door cards looked sweet! And I know he'll do an awesome job on the dash. Can't wait to see the results!

Bugs in? I thought you're meant to get rid of bugs and gremlins ;)

You reckon she'll be all ready for Akaroa this year? Since it's probably the only time of year I'll be able to check it out in the flesh :)

Brendan is a very good person and had a go at the passenger seat, it took him a fair while too in my defense, involved filing the hole for the bolt down approximately 3mm. But it's in!!!!

pictures update!
interior is almost finished, lewis has fixed my dash and refurbished my factory door cards. made and fitted new rear wheel arch covers as my mint factory ones didnt match my new retrimmed seats. have also fitted my underfelt and carpet kit.
Made up boot panels and rear seat cover which lewis is currently putting new vinyl on for me. will carpet boot area for added protection when throwing stuff in. if it ever happens.
Couldnt get my trim polished to my standards here at home, so back to max wildermoths so he can do the final buff and charge me lots for the pleasure. :deadhorse:
Have been buying up internationally recently with new cowl vents on their way, along with new tailight gaskets and lenses.
Managed to secure the final badge needed to run full "sunny/ "S" badging". at quite a price. and i will need to repaint them. wal started that by selling me metal "sunny" rear quarter badges.
Bought indicators a while back but the mounting lugs are in a different location so will need to drill out an extra hole per side.
got leppas old coilover struts crack tested by southern quality assurance too. passed!

anyway.... pictures!

That is looking sweet. Good work (or good dollars spent).
