New Zealand Datsun Club

Well after my datsun hibernated in the garage for a good year, it finally woke in the right place! Wal's (2doors) garage where it was going to get a bit of panel work done and some new paint. But after closer inspection of the body work and a bit more rust than first thought the decision was made to get serious so then came the big strip down and rebuild.





After wal was finished with the body work it went to his mate tony who did the respray back to the original colour. Both done a great job so good to see the car looking so good!





So now ive just been bearing the cold putting it all back together its starting to take shape and looking really good.

Looking good there Mickey!
I heard a funny story about you from this lady at work lol......something about a hypnotist?

Great looking car dude loving the "eager look" - be good to see how you do all the boot stuff

looking sweet man, nice!!!

Nice Job! looks real tight in white

Cheers for the comments guys yea it does look a bit white in the photos but its actually more of a cream in person some mite say off white lol and ill be putting that black stripe down the side of it again.
If only i could get some eagers! i cant even get those yokohamas anymore (my whole set down to below rubber ) but my brother found an other tyre that does the white letter so im getting a set of cooper cobras 205/60 13 instead.
Im looking forward to seeing what the boot going to be like havent done anything like it before but i knew what i wanted and how i want it to look so im going with that, going to either be fully carpeted or the same black vinyl as the interior going to get done and just going to have the one amp that will be hung on the fuel tank side. Spare wheels are over rated i usaully pop 2 tyres at once anyway and not by doing skids either (dam train tracks!) its much more important to have 10kg of magnet in there

haha, yeah thats the story I heard.

sounds good in the boot.....I vote on going with a nice black carpet.....will also help stop all the rattles in our boot from the sub

Looks so awesome, love that shape and colour.

Just a bit of an update on the car. Got it back from the upholsters last week so getting so much closer now to finnally finishing and getting it back on road. Heres the rest of the boot





And heres a bit of the interior so far. decided to go black headlining instead of the white/cream/stained colour it was

Nice job on the boot, who did the upholstry?
