New Zealand Datsun Club

Never think about the crush it thing this car will take A, Lots of Time or B,Lots of cold hard Cash or C, Both A and B,
I wish I had more time as I have fuck all cash
And your start price is right

But when I get out to the shed and see my J run my hands over steel / rust pick up a tool it makes it all good in my little world
Plus there is truck loads of GCs on here just waiting to give advice

I want mine ready for a Datsun cruse that was meant to be last year but it will make one

Yea i go with option C but it will be all worth it in the end end end, will it ever come?
Just pulled engine out ,





Now I got heaps of room I can un-stitch the welds holding the top valance fire wall assy and start to repair it
on the bench.






like so

Fcuk yeah,thats how its done! Good work... If you give up, ill give you 2x boxes of piss for it

Holly sha molly you are not wasting any time are ya. Keep em coming and if you ever do decide to part let me know

Im with everyone else, one of my fav coupes for sure.

If you have the skills/tools to do most of the rust yourself (which it appears you have given by your unstitching etc!) then do it.

Had to have a break as missus and kids getting grumpy.
Had a jam last night ,unstiched the inner RHS panel by accelerator pedal.






just got to neutralise the rust, cut it out , patch it up and then POR15 it
progress is slow but steady, doing at least 1 thing most night's.

Good shit lad!
Doing the one thing a night trick adds up. PLus you're going to be able to properly rust proof all the impossible to get to parts of the car doing it this was.

Keep up the good work, and keep those updates coming!!!!!

yeah man, as bart said, atleast you know that it will be good as gold. keep up the hard work

Gold.
One thing a night will result in it getting done without it becoming an emotional burden. Take ya do, steady and slow. Awesome!

Ok just got to repair whats removed now before the next step.
