Pacific coast Datsun Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Thats the best way to get rid of rust...cut out the old & weld in the new. How loud is the exhaust ? Quote Link to comment
whisper3H Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 lol, its really loud, at first it was "cool", but it got kinda annoying, im not sure if should replace the inner supports behind the outer body panel??:blink::confused: Quote Link to comment
Guest DatsuNoob Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 did you find a donor panel from another 510, or are you going another route? Quote Link to comment
whisper3H Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I've started to make the inner pieces from scratch today, tomorrow i will cut out the rusted inner supports and weld in my new piece i fabricated(if it fits close engough) its kind of difficult when 3/4ths of the panel and support behind it are gone, i kinda had to guess what it should look like, i will post more pics ....

(still dont know if i should sand down whole car to be painted) Quote Link to comment
