Might have a few trips before i start working on it and thank you kitch for the washer nozzle. Thought it would be hard to find one but cleaned it all up and ready to put on.

Looking good.
Glad to see a bit of the Manawatu in your build too.
Kobyn lives ten minutes away, we see his black lines on the road every time we go that way.
Might meet you one day at a North Island Datsun gathering.
