Hey guys good to see there's been a lot happening on the forum
I've just got my password sorted Thanks to Brassy ( Thanks again mate )
So sadly I had to pick my other 510 up from the panel beater 18 months and this is how it looks now and most the work that has been done ( the grunt work ) was done by myself . Dad and I a gutted but we still have a spare datsun to drive anyway but I do miss my car . So here's a few pictures were hoping to have it done next year when Datsport come over finger crossed .

It annoys me when I here story's of workshops taking on jobs when they know they are already over commited, gives the industry a bad name.Good on you for doing it yourself , I'm sure you will do a good job.

Hey Wal yeah unlike yourself this guy had about 10 jobs on the go we never saw him finish anything major but he was glad to bag the panel beater who did our orange car. If its ok ill give you a call just need a bit of advice re the build big plans ahead for the blue car. I'm struggling to find any good things that the guy did on my car he did what he wanted and we never asked for it to be striped right down or to be left in the rain outside too. Dads been busy finding bits because we had to leave bits at the shop when we repoed it we still don't everything that missing the biggest thing is a mint set of tail lights and the Datsun 1600 badges too.

If you're interested in giving someone else a try for panel work, Hot Rod Heaven just reopened in Palmy.
Gareth is a good guy, and he's looking at moving into doing Japanese stuff as well. I imagine he won't have 1000 projects in there just yet.
