Not sure what amount I can get done on it, but the show could really use some more 521 representation, even if it is just in the parking lot :) At least I can boast that the dash pad is pristine!

FiveSeventyZee Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Here are some edited ones, just tryin out some different styles of editing...not really sure if I have my own style yet with photography :P still learning Thinking of getting some of these printed poster sized so I can have posters of Dattos! I couldn't find many to choose from so I decided I would try to make my own....may cost a little more to get a one off print rather than an already existing poster, but it'll be something unique that I took so I'm gonna try to stick to that plan Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 No worries, I just call everyone "guy" or "dude"! LOL! That's funny. I do the same thing. Hey man how ya doin!!! It's kinda tuff when you only see people once or twice a year. Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I can't believe no one posted a pic of this Z. This thing was so badass. And he didn't even place.WTF!!!! I've been doing Z's for over 20 years and I don't think I've ever seen one with this much detail. There is something wrong with the way cars are judged at JCCS when a car this badass does not place. All three of the winners in the Z car class were nice cars. But none of them had this much detail. I guess it's just who ya know or who ya blow... Sad if you want my opnion. Quote Link to comment
datsunwizard Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Coming from a machinist perspective, that Z is very very nice. The attention to detail is amazing. Just look at that fuel pump cover plate, flat socket screws, brushed finish with the Datsun logo engraved. Even the unused holes on the motor have button head socket bolts in them. I could go on and on about the detail in this car.The car should be displayed at SEMA, where it would turn some heads. Should have got the best of show award for sure. Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Well I just happen to run a machine shop. I guess that's why I'm so into this car. The guy even made sheet metal covers for the blinker lights on the back side of the grill under the hood. It's a 280 with 240 bumpers. Every time I went back to look at it I found something else that I missed the first time. There was not one wire that I could find under the hood. Everything was tucked or covered. JUST FUCKIN AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at the cam cover NO OIL CAP!!! Quote Link to comment

Any more pics of this one? It was VERY understated. That's probably why it didn't place. Badass, regardless. Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I only got the three you see here. I'm not much of a picture guy. I think I only took 5-6 photos that day. So what you see is half of what I took. Quote Link to comment
nis720 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I guess that Z wasn't JDM enough or painted some bright color. :confused: Quote Link to comment
