That is very clean,
I like it ALOT!!
Great interior treatment among other things, be great to see some less teasing shots when you roll it out of the shed.
Keep up the great work mate

Thanks guys, The interior is all factory like the rest of the car // the engine bay has been resprayed in original paint code specs.
I intent on painting the car once all parts have been gathered and ready for assembly. It was purchased by the service manager
of Datsun / Nissan in Invercargill back in the day and he owned it from new for 25 plus years and and I have owned it for Six.
It use to be my daily driver for about a year then I decided to just tidy up the engine bay and put all back together but I got a little
carried away. Other commitments have slowed the project but, now I am dedicated to getting it on the road.
The build is to give the car all the good stuff and make it look like a good sound vehicle without destroying the appearance.
