Awesome build, nice to see you got one that wasnt completely gone with rust. Cannot wait to see it finished, If ya need any random Datsun parts hit me up. I have loads of Z stuff and 6 cyl "L" parts and a decent set of round top SUs that would look pretty off the left side of that L16.

All the work is looking good so far, keep it up. I wish I had the motivation( and a rabbit that would stop needing heads) to work on my Datsun at the rate you are.

omg subscribed. this has much potential.

a little off topic: what do you have for an angle grinder/cutout tool. That floor reminded me of some work I need to be doing soon.

I have a standard 3 or 4" girnder w/ a cut off wheel, and an air grinder aka wiz wheel. However.. the guy who did the body work fixed the floors since he didn't charge me too much more.

Chris, I finally got some leads for you. There's a guy in New York who may be dropping you an email soon. Waiting on a mutual friend to get his contact info.

I'm gonna PM you a number. It's a Datsun shop I believe. One of my fellow moderators at NICO works there, and they'll help you to find pieces you need if they don't have it lying around.
