New Zealand Datsun Club

Bought this the first weekend of living in the datsun capital, for my new daily.
Huge thanks to Wal for initial inspection, rust repairs and body/paintwork, its going to be an awesome wagon! Its been so enjoyable learning more about bodywork, talking shit, and observing the talent youve put into the repair work!
Thanks also to Chris for committing some quality prepping labour to help us get on track for paint, much appreciated dude!!

Wagon is currently in primer waiting on final prep and blocking back for paint.
More pics to come from Wal...

nice brendan, are you going red or black with this?

staying red, touching up the factory black window frames in satin black.
its gonna look fantastic in red, cant wait!

I hope you're joking about the 2 inch drop. Should be lowered at least 3 inches!!!

haha, will drop to suit wheels and tyres, would like the ideal stance yes!

Awesome dude =)
