The Wagon finally arrived back at the shop all nice and shiny ...   Immediately took time to identify it so I wouldn't confuse it with other resto's .....  It's a great feeling mounting new parts!  |

That looks excellent! Must be so satisfying to get to this stage.

Well done that man. Keep posting. Love those fender/wing indicators. There's just no style to today's cars. Can you imagine ANY of today's cars being restored with this amount of affection? They really are throwaway unless they are at the top end of the market.

Indeed ... I'm over the moon at the moment - it's been 10 long years to finally see it painted!!!
No, definitely NOT ... I've actually turned away 2 projects because they had too much plastic ....

Stunningly beautiful! Did it have wheel arch liners fitted?

Amazing! Can you post some pictures of the interior when it is fitted?
Also, can you please post details of the company in China that supplied the interior?

Sorry for the poor picture quality ...    Since they only manufacture for the sedan I had to make my own panels for the cargo area ...  Back seat re-upholstered and fitted ... soon should have the front seats ready!  These panels are "made in China" but are supplied by "Datsun Garage" in the US ( www.datsun-garage.com ) or ( www.facebook.com/thedatsungarage ) |
