Gasket specialties on airport way will have edpm flat sheet in whatever thickness you want. You can even take them a sample and they can do a laser scan of it and cut however many you want.

Your chewing through this Greg, great job!

Here's my blue. I forget the code, but believe it's called Nissan Blue:

 

 

Long term, I'm thinking yellow like a Mustang/Miata/370z, and call it "Yellow Peril."

[mklotz70]

Hope you don't mind Greg.....

 

 

So, Greg is getting the R16 out of Melvin. We wanted to keep things in the "barter" realm.....so he brought me these!! :) (high quality 1/2" and 3/8" torque wrenches!)

 

 

 

.....which are worth way more then the eng is, so to even things up a bit....he's getting this as well :)

 

 

 

 

lol....told you I had a box with your name on it!! :)

[ppeters914]

DAMN!!!! I would love to have those torque wrenches! :o

[gcmustang]

We have some nice tools. Its fun when you work for a tool company.

Hood and fenders have been painted. I will get some pictures up soon.

For datsun paint codes, look at the plate under the hood or on the door. Should be a code in there, then lookup the code on this page.

Well was working on drivers rear door today, body work done blocked out, sanded inside, primerd, painted inside jams on door and car and went to mount the door and big oops. Did not realize that there was a difference between wagon rear and sedan rear doors. I now have a very nice wagon drivers rear door that I can not use. I no have to do rust repair on drivers rear door. Very frustrating so I went over to Mike Klotz house and made me feel better he had run into his own troubles. Thanks Mike for releaving my stress with your troubles. It at least made me feel like I am not the only one.

 

Anyone want to buy a very nice 411 wagon rear drivers door?

 

Anyone know before I start on it if 411 wagon front doors will work on 411 sedan?

[mklotz70]

You're more than welcome Greg, but you certainly spent a lot more time on yours than I did on mine......besides....you did most of the work on mine anyway!! :)

Barter system ROCKS! Sorry to hear about the doors Greg!

On this car everything is being done via barter or selling items/car parts. Since money is tight the goal as I told my wife was no out of pocket(that she knows of LOL) money on this car. This will make it take a little longer but oh well.

[smelt240]

WOW! that is going to come out nice. I hope mine is half as straight when its done. Are you leaving the ride height stock? Ill keep an eye on this build for sure.

[gcmustang]

Probably going to drop it a little but not to much 1-2 inches

Hmmmm....maybe. Pics?

I would think so, and the parts manual says "ALL", but it's not clear on the sedan vs wagon rear doors, sooooo.... <_<

Been lazy, below aresome pictures of first coat of paint on fenders, hood, rear drivers qtr.

 

Starting to strip passenger door

 

Here is pictures of the driver side rear wagon door that will be sold if anyone is interested

A little dirt on the botton from where is stuck door in the mud. Wipes right off. No rust on toor and it was all stripped to bare metal.

There is a little tab on the underside of the rear bumper where the assembly is bolted to the sheet metal behind the rear wheel well. Be sure to put a synthetic rubber washer [like the factory installation] between the tab and the body when you reassemble after painting. No matter how well it fits, without the washer to absorb vibration the tab will dig into the paint and eventually open up a potential rust prone area right into the tire well in the trunk. By the way, not wanting to replace the original cardboard liner that covered these wells I used low expansion spray can urethane foam. Just before it finally sets you can dampen your fingers, or a flat board, and compress the top surface flush with the sheet metal. It takes primer and paint when fully cured.

[ppeters914]

Looking good. :cool:

[gcmustang]

Have not worked on this car for awhile since I picked up the other ones. I will get back to it after I get the black SSS done it should be on the road much easier than this one.

[67 411]

Nice car, have you made anymore progress?

[gcmustang]

Been working on the black one off and on so no progress on this one. Its tucked away in the garage

[67wrx]

[gcmustang]
