@@naimatakku will be a little while yet I suspect, but first show is in mid-April so will have to get it done by then! Probably won't be perfect knowing my lack of skill but should be at least as good as the other paint on the car
I bought a Datsun the exact same colour as that as a parts car for another Datsun build we were doing. It was a one owner with less than 50,000 on the clock but it had rust holes so big you could pass a football through them, ah the memories.
It's probably my favourite colour of Datsun now, nice vintage colour that suits the car and stands out a lot compared to modern stuff that's all black, white or grey!
I had a 120Y and with only 55K on the clock it ate itself, The inner wings just crumbled to dust in your hand, the sills were nearly as bad, I took it to a welder and was quoted double the value of the car, scrapped it for £30,
@@sicks6six I feel like that's a pretty common story with any car of that era! I used to hear loads of stories like that back when I had my mini, but they were notorious for rotting and cheap enough to be disposable back then!
How long do we think until I finish the other side then?
take your time is the way to Go,💥 great project 👍
That arc fits the car and the wheels perfectly. Cant wait for the final paint
