reza Posted December 12, 2014 Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 This is the first cast from a master I completed.. the final plate will be face milled for a flush fit and more detail put into the sanding and polishing.. the sides especially.the first one is always rough but I was happy to see how it turned out.inspection plate for an L-series head.I think I will start a thread in non-Datsun related topics with tips tricks and how-to. 3 Quote Link to comment

RedBanner Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 Just in case you don't know, this is still a hot button issue for WWII veterans and anyone who has served. I don't care that much, but I'm not putting any rising sun anything on any of my vehicles due to the sensitive nature. I know some of you guys think it's uber-cool, but I also manage a NAPA store, and I still get WWII vets coming in to buy stuff. They don't take that lightly. Food for thought if you're in the public eye a good portion of the time. In truth, it's not much different than flying a Nazi flag, though the circumstances are different. These same vets are just as pissed about you driving by with your "music" too loud. 1 Quote Link to comment

Not knocking just suggesting as i love the oldschool ruff surface look ( kinda reminds me of those oldschool model A race parts) but Since this sits sideways on engine ,, maybe the letters turned to read right when installed might look better. I might be in the market to buy one either way though,, cuz it's pretty cool. Oh and a Washington badge or two if you ever decide to make those. 2 Quote Link to comment
