Re: Return to Forum Participation

Any opinions? Two lower stripes or one? Only using white as the accent this time. I wreck the thing too often to get fancy. Also going to end the stripes on the door so that fender replacement is easier. Cant decide on angling the start to match the back or squared off an inch behind the door. https ...

Re: Return to Forum Participation

It's a race car so I quit going for perfect. A little polish in a week or so and itll look fine. Undecided on the rest of the paint scheme. I'm tempted to bring back the old stripes as they were but I'm open to ideas in anyone has one. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20191009 ...

It aint that fun, rewarding, but not fun. I noticed your signature mentions a Chevy Traverse- Wife wants one. What do you think of yours? Looking to replace the suburban here soon.

I can ship you some rust free west coast parts, or you can use those rusty ones as templates for a tube subframe

Re: Return to Forum Participation

The datsun is gonna be the nice car. I will probably run a hillclim in it or the odd driving event. But I've set a rule on that car that the wife has to WANT to drive it. That's a suprising limitation when it comes to a car build.

The primer is almost a dolphin blue, part of me really digs it as a ...

Spent a couple weeks out of town for work and got back on the car. SO MUCH SANDING!

I'm not sure why i'm putting half the effort in that I am. I will be crashing the thing again. Its so easy to say "Well that will only take a minute or two" or "Removing the belt trim will look way better" or "yeah ...

Love the Datsuns! My dad had a 240z when I was little and did a bunch of work to it. This is me leaning on the freshly painted Datsun circa 1980:
