Wow. What an amazing new project. Literally I was typing the question about converting to right hand drive when you answered it in the video. But why not? It's possible to do, you have the parts, you have the skills, this is Britain, and it'll make it even more amazing.
So, no point spending the money to convert it. It's already left hand drive, it makes it a bit more quirky too. So I'll just keep it as it is and save the money!
Congrats on getting your dream car, hope fixing it all up goes smoothly. It's insane how you're talking about waiting for summer to do some fixing up on it. Like... wasn't yesterday July? Damn time flew. But look forward to seeing it And just about the truck. Especially after seeing that paint job, now it has rust 🙄 & Hi CC!
Hahaha no no, I'll do some work on it in winter, just not the rust stuff that's all. I'll get it running, driving, service the engine and get that solid. Change the door out etc. but the underside has to be a summer job sadly! Yeah the truck, I'm not happy about it
BRO THATS A CLEAN SOLID CAR FOR UK YOUR VERY LUCKY AND PLENTY OF SPARE PARTS AND EXPERIENCE IN BUILDING NOW YOU DO WELL ON THIS ONE BUY YOUR SELF A CARPORT FOR THAT DRIVE
Now that looks a million times better than the red one, a completely original unmessed about with car I bet you'll get it running and engine & 4 speed will run fine, if it does I'd be tempted to leave it alone
What? How is there rust on the pick up truck?. You showed us it in a video and there wasnt any. What have they done left it outside?. I would not be happy ether. Glad you found another one MRH get to see you finally finishing the dream car!
That's a good find Nate, nice to see the Greek climate has been kind to the Datsun. I'm guessing you're going to give the paintwork and panel work a light clean / restoration and then add a few aftermarket bits? . Like you said- its a nice honest motor.
Really glad that you like the car 😁😁😁 keep the videos coming!! cheers from Greece
Makes sense. You'll have loads of spares to use on this. I've got a good feeling about this one. Strength and honour. 💪🏻
Thanks man!

Yeah the truck, I'm not happy about it
Let's hope you have better luck with this one than the last rust bucket
Ah can tell it's not rotten as you can see all the surface rust, honestly, it's very solid!

Yeah I do need to get a carport sorted out!
Get it mechanically sorted and running. Knock the dent out of the door. Run it in it's patina! Job done and enjoy!
Hope Springs Eternal Indeed! The Dream lives on!
Grats on the new Datsun. Hopefully no big issues arise. Looking forward to seeing the progress.
I hope it serves you well, Sir. Once you can get it sorted, of course.
Sounds like all in all a decent find! Looks like most of the electrical is working. Awesome if so, that can be such a tedious hassle to figure out.

I used to have an 1980 Toyota Celica in that exact same color. Had to sell it when I enlisted in the army

So yes it was left outside, but cars get left outside, it shouldn't rust when it's had a paint job! Nightmare. I'm very upset about it all
Cool color too. The red would still be sick
Thanks man, it's going to stay white, with black accents added!
Fingers crossed for this one! If you’ve got all the parts needed I would convert it to right hand drive

I'd swap everything out with all your spares you have.Lowered with the wide arches...Going to look good.
Nate you lunatic ! You glutton for punishment ! I pray to God you have better luck this time - although I am not going to hold my breath . 👍👍👍👍
Haha 😂 well I'm going in confident
I would keep as much original as possible..I'm into original factory stuff when it comes to vintage
Another one
looks cool. definitely needs work
Not as much as you'd think, honestly!
😲👍🏼
knock on wood you didn't get shafted again
Seriously made up for you,H.
Thank you 🙏🏻
