Pacific coast Datsun Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I picked this hatch up from Steroid yesterday. It will eventually be installed on his 2001 Xterra. His welder Rich got it to this point,ill finish up the welds & then do the body / paint work. Im sure this'll turn a few heads once done.... new supports added... Ill be working on this soon,hoping to have done by mid march. Stay tuned........ Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Steroid told me that he added the bars because that area wanted to warp as he was tacking the metal in place. Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Im hoping to have the hatch in paint within the next few months. Steroid has a design in mind for the letters that will look nice. Quote Link to comment
