The slow build of a 2+2 Datsun

only if you pay shipping

[180roman]

that sucks. you should ship one to me lol

yeah sure, swaps R31 for your MA61

Speed the build up please

Gona look great man, good progress so far.

going as fast as my means allow me atm lol
i've got $200 in my account for me to last the next few days before the next pay and i've booked it in for tomorrow to get a road worthy inspection done which will cost at least $100.

i'm hoping it passes without any issues as i simply don't have the money for it

then once i get paid i'll take it to get registered which will most likely cost me my whole fortnight's pay

So.. being a bit of a car whore I ended up buying another car..

Picked up a 1975 Datsun 260Z 2+2 with no rego

Pretty good condition for its age with a couple of problem that needed to be fixed for road worthy.

Anyway I'll let the pictures do the talking











The plan is to have this as the daily cruiser, so about 3-4" lower and some wheels to fill out them massive standard guards. This should still give me enough height to get over most obstacles and hopefully avoid the unwanted attention from the authorities.

Since I already had a set of 15" 4 stud wheels in the garage I've decided to see how they would sit on the car.... but not before i reversed the barrels for -ive offset







Filling the guards with 6.5" wide wheels

This is going to be a rather slow biuld coz I'm broke after buying the car, so no lows for a while
