zerow Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 I am so pleased to see that you got the car to your house. Now the fun begins. I wish I had more time; it could be a race to see who's 610 gets done faster. :D I want pics of this documentation you speak of...! Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 ill take pics of the documentation tomorrow and happy 610th post bro it wont be much of a race considering the fact mine will be rattle canned to start :mellow: Quote Link to comment
zerow Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 ill take pics of the documentation tomorrow and happy 610th post bro it wont be much of a race considering the fact mine will be rattle canned to start :mellow: Crap! I didn't even notice the post count! Mine was rattle canned, couldn't take it. You my friend need some side marker lights - esp. drivers side front. I may have a reflector. Stay tuned, as you will likely benefit from some extra parts... Quote Link to comment

Guest jaimesix Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Congratulations Bonvo. That sure is good news, what a way to enjoy a weekend. My suggestion, before any transfer of parts, deal with that surface rust and any rust. Do it right, well done rust work erradicates it, but a fast slap will only come to haunt you and will eat at your car like a caterpillar on a sick redwood tree . Looks great!!! Since the original BonvoDemon will be alive as parts of it will enhance this 73 Datsun, this thread is the perfect one to show the restoration. Cool>>>> Very cool!!! Jaime.____________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 im one step ahead of you jamie today the surface rust removal has started and is moving along rather quicky pics when im done for the day Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 alright here are the pics of the car on the trailer when we picked it up as requested here is a pic of the window sticker here are the pics from today i pressure washed the engine compartment last night and found that there were a few spots that needed touching up so i got some more bed liner and took care of thouse spots then cleaned up some sheet metal (before i get shot i put the 74 parts on because thats all i have till i can fix the 73 stuff) bolted its all together in the front its comming together i picked the maroon for now just so it wont rust basicly aside from the hood from the windsheld forward its ready for paint i started sanding the trunk lid as well the stuff is all surface it comes right off i think this is the original milage :eek: Quote Link to comment

Pedro Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Good score you got there on the new body, shouldn't take to long to come together at all. But I vote you buy a cheap spray gun and paint it white or a similiar colour to the old car. Gl with it :) Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 HAHAHA...no way. Ill tell the guys up front they cant make em for you till you drive that beast down there to get em :P lmao thats funny hyphy you should stop by sometime and see the new shell this thing is unblevably straight sure how much?? i know they have a minimum charge of 15 i think you can get 3 or 4 for that much Good score you got there on the new body, shouldn't take to long to come together at all. But I vote you buy a cheap spray gun and paint it white or a similiar colour to the old car.
