New Zealand Datsun Club

nics right ive gone and bought another toy that requires 80's motox gear ,and will prob require my leg to be in plaster shortly.
mines not a 250r like this one its the next model down 200x


But the house is sold HELL YEAH,and new house bought HEEELLLLL YEAH,so ive now got more time for the cedric HHHEEEEEELLLLL YEEEAAAAHHH
all ive done so far is bought some dynamat and gone to town on door skins,tubs and tunnels coz i want it to be fairly quiet,cant recomend this stuff enuff,awsome to work with and way better than the stuff i put on the tunnel a year ago which pretty much fell off when it saw the dynamat coming.


Ive also reassembled the doors(shit there is a lot in there!).The build quality of this car amazes me at every turn,the thing is superb for 1978.so theres not alot more to tell right now,and assembly being wat it is theres not gonna be to many choice photos for a while unless you want the bolt by bolt updates!i'll post whenever theres a big step tho

dynamat for the win, where did you pick it up from?how much did it cost?

be careful what you wish for

You had the seat in on-top of your link boxes yet? How was clearance?

I pray every day that this will be done by Akaroa, what are the chances?

yeah seat frame has been tweeked to fit over and ot looks like itll be fine but wont know for sure untill the pad is back on,I wont be in the back anyway

chances are very slim sorry tony i'd love to have it on the road by then but i doubt i'll make it,i'll keep working on it tho...just for you
