Come on out to our monthly Last Thursday of Every Month meet going on tonight!

3605 El Camino Real Santa Clara CA next to Starbucks!

LOL Burabuda, if I was trying to threadjack I would post a bunch of questions, instead I was posting pics of what little things can do to turn it into a nice looking wagon in no time.  It's call inspiration...get over it!

I sell them if you're interested :)

Then finally some slamming and wheels :)

Before: Cargo (yuck)





 

After: Cargo After cleaning up and slapping in the newer panels and carpet:

Oh and for some motiviation, here's some before/after pics to show you it doesn't take too much to make a big difference in our Datsun's apperance! :)

Before: Old nasty carpet that came with it.






After Carpet: New and clean (well still needs a vacuum)




Seats Before: These came with the wagon and while they were headress-less like true 1968 Datsun seats, they weren't stock and sat higher due to the little feet it had on them. Sold them on CL, only to find out later they were actualy from a old school Camaro/Firebird and worth some $$$...oh well.



Seats After: Got these from a local guy with a old man golfer upholstery


After Ratsunizing them:


Before: Original blue door panels and rear seat were pretty thrashed




After: Replaced all 7 busted door panels and seats with black ones






 

68Goon: No problem I thought you might like to see a stock-ish group of photos...but to answer your question yes it's stock but for some reason my dash is not a 68, I've learned since buyign it that it's a 69 dash, now I don't know if that came that way from the factory since they did funny things back then (like install different years parts on transitioning cars) but it is a stock dash.  :)

Scooter Stuff: Sadly yes they were Camaro seats, I say sadly because I didn't know it at the time when I took them off to replace with stock Datsun seats and I sold them on Craigslist for WAAAAAAY too cheap.  It wasn't until after I sold them in no time at all that I look into why I got so much interest, that I realized I could have gotten a LOT more for them...oh well.  :P

Congrats on a 68 goon!  I have one too...here's some pics of when I first picked it up! :)

Hey I recognize that 1200, that was Mario's old coupe!  He bought his after I scored mine.  You've done some good work on it, can't wait to see it on the road! :)

Nice heel pad source! I might order some to add it to my kits.

Thanks for the feedback and idea!

Well I'm sorry you're not happy Laecaon, but yes, wearing out is bound to happen, that's why I use (and recommend) floor mats to extend not only my carpet kits but any carpet in your Datsuns.

Even a cheap set of floor mats will cause you to never have a problem again, plus it makes cleaning it up a breeze. :)

Sure you can make your own carpet kits for less, but unless you want to hassle with the trial and error of the dimensions it's sometimes easier to avoid that hassle and guess work and buy something that you know will fit from the get go.  Just my 2 cents.  Everyone is welcomed to review my old classified thread for a string those that have bought and used my kits and thier inputs/thoughts.

I'm looking for the light bezels/surrounds for a sedan, if anyone has a pair, PM me!

Some latest screenshots from my mobious action camera :)

Anyway here is the LAST of my LED Tail Light videos...it shows all the functions of the LEDs for you to see...shows parking, brake, blink, and reverse. :)

Are those the Sylvania LED headlights? The rear looks killer. How much effort/cash did it take? 

 

Also, is that "Shake Everything You Got" in the video?   ^_^

No, the ones I bought are GE Nighthawk, but from what I learned during my purchase, they seem to be the same exact design with different brand names (not generic).

The LED retrofit kit cost me a lot of $$$...haha just kidding it didn't cost me a penny! I won it in a Datsun 1200 contest from the LED maker...and the song was one of the choices when loading it on YouTube, so I don't know, it was under 'FUNK', and it fit the bill :P

LED's anyone? :)

See you guys out there tomorrow!

Just a reminder to spread the word about the upcoming car show and swap meet!

Looking good!  Keep up the work and the pics! :)

I know but I'm just messing with my iphone to put these vids together so I'm limited on it anyway :)
