I started to write about my car in the 510 section but decided I shouldn't my build thread in the place of belongs. This is my baby inpicked up last week and it's on it's way to becoming my dream car. This is what I have going on so far

 

 

 

After I cleaned it

 

 

A friend gave me this but I'm not really sure if it's worth installing

but still a really cool datsun, cant wait to see it up and running.

So today i started to grind away at the floor of my dime and found a few spots that need to be addressed. got most of the surface rust off and now i can see all the spots that need to be patched. Also put on my tail lights that i cleaned up and panted

Before

 

After

 

 

Swiss cheese disease

 

 

Hit the trunk too and decide that its a lost cause and every where i started to brush down was rusted through soo idk if i want to replace it and do another or just cover it up

 

 

 

 

Tail lights
