hi just to say that my datsun below has been placed in the trusted hands of my bodywork guys and is undergoing a rust removal and new paint job! I have had the same paint colour matched and have added 20% metallic flakes so we shall see how things turn out! the car has now been stripped and will be ready for paint next week! the wing spot lamps - gone! the number plate bull bar - gone! AA badges - gone! the stickers - all gone! the mud flaps will be painted black! some new wheels - xxr 002 will be added! interior will be colour matched to front seats - next month! watch this space for photos of resto! some photos from 2008/09/10 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

looks like a bloody nice car already shatz, although it seems to have a stance issue. maybe a 60/40 drop and some spacers wouldnt go amiss while its all in bits ;D

Very nice - can't help thinking it would be a whole bunch better if you lost the mudflaps too!

Fantastic.
Love it. Looking forward to seeing her after the work.
Got to agree about the mudflaps though. That's the only downer for me.

the car has now been stripped and will be ready for paint next week! some new wheels - xxr 002 will be added! They xxr will not fit the A10 ...you will need to roll the arches both at the front and rear to accomodate the 8J 0 offset wheels....however the mudflaps may disguise the 1/2" or so that they stick out ;D ;D

I then wanted to start cleaning the interior as it stinks of wood (the material not the smell of a boner) best quote ever!

First car I ever drove with a dog-leg first gear. Was great fun too although a few years ago now. I always liked the look as it was white with minilites.
