Hello to all!

I knew the forum by a member here's your forum!

Been to see some projects, I decided to put a topic here a mine restoration, which is already late, but I will put pictures of the beginning of restoration ....

Excuse my English, now I make my presentation ...

My name is Miguel and i'm from Portugal, i have 10 datsun 510...i love this car
I will start the restoration of a Datsun 1600 SSS, as it already have it some years ago and was for parts and is one of my worst cars! (this a bit damaged)
But as I like challenges, I will restore you to promenor and also apply some extra season and give you a few taps on the engine, but that the old fashion!
I have practically all the pieces, new and original!
Then put photos of the material ...
Give your opinion!

Now I make some pictures of the car:
