I second this request for rubber/gasket supplier.

[the510keeper]

I always find them on Ebay, 4 door application. but works on 2 doors for 1/4er windows and doors. Door rubber on 2 door is 3inches short. but the rear door rubber will accommodate.

[the510keeper]

New tires and ready to put them on the dime

 

 

cleaning up rear wheel wells

 

 

 

Car had S/T rear springs but was way to high, The yellow springs were under my fauxbird. I didn't want it that low. So I cut 1.5 coils and perfect

 

 

 

Front window, New rubber Taiwan, and new glass China

 

 

 

While blacking out wheel wells I decided to finish the rear black panel

 

[the510keeper]

Gas tank next job, All new hoses. I bought NOS filler neck from Quik510 awhile back. Once I pulled the one off this car it ripped. they all do

 

 

 

 

new trunk rubber but its to thick, so I pulled it and looking for a NOS one I have somewhere

 

 

 

 

 

I've save this hood, and like a little bare naked metal on my cars but everybody tells me to paint it

 

[Dattokai]

Damn, that's a good color scheme. Love me some period correct wheels. 

[the510keeper]

Fucking 1/4er windows next job.

 

New bumpers

 

 

The 1/4er windows on the car had a lot of rust so dug around the shop and found these, gutted them, sanded them and painted them.

Now for the hell of putting them back together

 

 

Also found complete working latches, and that is a ratcheting strap

 

 

Used inner rubber and new outter rubber

 

 

 

This is actually the rear 4 door rubber has one corner, but you have to cut 2 other corners

 

 

 

Not sure we will be seeing much more of these, window felt / rubber, Datsunlandsocal RIP Mike

 

 

 

Door windows and 1/4er windows done including new rubber DONE :)

[WAGON JON]

Looking clean!!

[S30Jay]

I really like this car.....and I really didn't when you started.

[the510keeper]

Trying to finish up the interior, details and more details.

 

Funning part of this car is, I originally started this car project to teach one of my employees auto body.

8 years ago I had a full time auto body guy here.

 

however he quit, guess im just a dick to work for.

 

Then Frank came alone and needed parts and had some experience doing body work.

 

Had Todd At TMG make these up for me while installing the new headliner.

 

 

Getting them warm in the sun so there ez to mold into place. Rear wheel well covers

 

I decided to use thin foam under the black vinyl

 

 

 

 

 

Vinyl dyeing rear OG blue rear 1/4er panels

 

 

Also picked up some 210 armrest that are red, needing to go black also

 

 

 

 

 

 

[the510keeper]

Seats are from a 626 Mazda, I pulled the upholstery off the rear seat, sent it to Todd, He Started with a rear seat frame and built the rear seat using new foam and padding and Mazda rear seat upholstery.

 

Front seat had head rest, pulled them and modded frame rails and look and fit great in the dime

 

Freshly cleaned and ready

 

 

 

 

 

Got rid of the factory front mounts and used the rivet hole to run a mounting bolt through the 510 floor rail.

used these plastic spacers to lift the rear bracket of the seat to match the floor height.

 

 

 

[the510keeper]

On to carpet and seatbelts.

 

Bought a carpet kit from ebay, its not great. Cheap carpet, does not carpet the 4inch sides. Blah blah blah

 

I used it anyway, take me to long to cut my own kit. and seat belts another story had stock ones but nothing clean enough for this car.

So I found these in my barn and there are new

 

 

 

ended up not using these factory seat belts, but found these

 

 

 

 

 

On to door locks and trunk lock

 

While in Pick n Pull I found a B210, pulled the locks had them keyed at a lock smith and bam, new locks with 1 matching key. Because it was a trunk car the truck lock works by just changing the turning bracket on the back of the lock.

I use a small file and clean the paint out of the holes before installing so I don't create a chip in the lock hole area.

Why did you paint the OG door panels? Blue is purdy hard to find  :hmm:

[the510keeper]

Blue doesn't go with tan. Clean door panels are hard to find. I swapmeet hunt parts while I'm at swapmeets, to help complete project cars here at the shop. I found blue, now there black :)

[the510keeper]

Next big question is regarding mirrors. Any suggestions. I have several options, jdm fender mirrors, factory door mirror, 2002 BMW, and ????

[Draker]

Black is more sexy.

 

Lots of good options for mirrors. I like BMW flags. But other options are good too.

[Ranman72]

bmw flags are awesome 

not everyone likes fender mirrors 

or no mirrors till it sells with choice of mirrors

[DaBlist]

Please no fender mirrors

[Dattokai]

Can't go wrong with OEM. 

[the510keeper]

Only have the drivers oem mirror
