OLD-JDM Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Hey guys It's ben a while but here I am again. Long history short the 69 datsun that you guys saw a couple years ago it was in bad shape (lots of rust) I twisted the frame on it. Well a year ago I decided to do a full restoration on a new one this one is a '68 here a few pics: the old one the new frame sandblasted and powdercoated Every bolt nut and washer is new on the car frame was re-inforced to prevent me to twist this one... The ONLY carbonfiber hard top on the world! A buddy of mine did this for me Body was sandblasted also, here a pic after all the bodywork on it Front was made in to one piece, very easy to remove New brake upgrade On the way to shop my 1976 bmw 2002 and datsun finally meet at shop '67 dash conversion custom gauges made ( you can see the datsun logo on them) massive 2 piece rotors and engine bay Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Christ... That hardtop is fucking gorgeous. My one complaint is that its not a short windshield. Cant wait to see how this turns out. Quote Link to comment

OLD-JDM Posted December 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Thank you guys, Here a new picture from last nite. I got my little one (2 years old) a antique metal car for Christmas I'm doing a replica of my car for him, flares, I got an racing gokart frame that I'm using for that and swaping a Ruckus engine on it. Wish everyone a merry Christmas! Quote Link to comment
