datsunfreak Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 After beating the hell out of those rear tires I finally got off my ass and rolled the rear fender lips as far as humanly possible. No more rubbing when I have a passenger, and I can slam a dip at 30-40 without it "barking" at me. And I noticed two things today... 1. I really love this car. :cool: 2. That right fender really has a lot of "character". :P Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Quarter badges finally came in the mail today! :) Before: After: Got a couple of scuffs while trying to remove the 36-year-old double-sided tape so I polished them out before putting the new badges on. Came out nice. But there are now big shiny circles on either side, so now I have to polish the rest of it. <_< :P Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Not the best pic, and the car's dirty, but you can sort of make out the new badges... :P Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted May 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 It's the little things in life, ya know... :cool: Finally got sick of not having a functional dome light, so picked up a "510" dome light off ebay. Stock one (what was left of it) fell apart in my hands when I tried to take it off... :P Although the dome light was made for a 510, it actually bolted right on! And the wiring was the same too. Excellent... And oddly enough, it works! :lol: Well, it works when I open the driver's door. but not when I open the passenger door. <_< It's a little thing to do, but having a working dome light makes a super difference to me. :cool: Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Saw it a few years back, but thanks for posting it. ;) That car is actually the "inspiration" for my car. First clean JDM B210 I ever saw, and it's what has made me keep the door mirrors and USDM side markers up until now. :lol: Just need some wheels with a bit more flash, and might need to go an inch lower. :cool: It is funny that I wanted the JDM badges and lights for mine, and the owner of that car (who lives in Japan) actually spent the money to put USDM side markers and badges on his car. :P I saw this, and thought you might enjoy it.

datsunfreak Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Went outside and played with the pin switch on the passenger door a bit. If you wiggle it, it does work. Guessing it's not making a good solid ground then? Might try to pop it out this weekend and clean it up a bit. :cool: Quote Link to comment
67 411 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Man I love that grill it makes the car look even better. Now ur inspiring me to get one of these. Quote Link to comment
831Sunny Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 i love the 2nd gen 1200.. i bet it is sweet to have a 75 just for the smog exempt.. Quote Link to comment
king bee66 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 the late us grille doesnt look right without the orange turn lenses imo, or maybe its just the weird lighting in that picture. the painted headliner looks good, ive been wanting to do that to mine for awhile Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 i bet it is sweet to have a 75 just for the smog exempt.. Hahaha :lol: In California it is. Here in Texas "smog exempt" means anything over 24 years old. That means right now I can have a smog exempt car built in '87. :cool: Can't wait until two years from now when I can have a smog legal R32 Sklyline. ;) But one nice thing about it being a '75 (and not a California model '75) is that it came with no catalytic converter. Which means no big-assed hump in the floor to clear the catalytic converter. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
jaime.g Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 i enjoyed reading this thread. I have a 76 b210 sedan as well that I'm anxious to get started on. Thanks for the tip on where to source bumpers. Quote Link to comment
