    My dad would like one more set if anyone could buy them and ship them to us. We could paypal you the money.
  7. Your last name isn't Griswold is it?
  8. Started this thread on the 510 forum and have been getting quite a few cool responses and posts. Plus some history of how members became fans of their current Datsun models. I don't have a Z but I will be 30 in May Pretty much grew up around Datsuns as my dad (Diseazd) built more S30's and 510's than I can count. And yes..... one day I will buy a 240

    I wouldn't clear the head. My machine shop told me to use Minwax satin clear urethane on the aluminum parts that have been cleaned and blasted. You can get it at Lowe's. I did that on my 510 valve cover, timing cover, etc. and it looks great. Does not yellow with hear either. I wouldn't clear over single stage. What's the point? Then you might as well do base/clear. I would also worry about problems with laying clear over single stage. The compunds may not be happy together and you could get lifting or crinkling. Not fun

    With your silver car, I would go gunmetal. if your rear tail section is gunmetal, try and match that color. Just my $.02

    I have been trying to tell people that on multiple forums. if you embed a picture with html using flickr on here they still show up. If someone uses photoshop, I can't see them. Flickr is much better for workplaces that have hefty firewalls. Flickr kicks photobuckets arse then sleeps with his girlfriend.

    I took all the photos of my dad's cars (Diseazd) You can see them on my flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/ You will have to go to the sets on the right hand side. Near the bottom is says view all sets. Click that. I can't get on flickr from work so I don't have the direct link.

    if the car has been painted several times and you aren't taking it to metal you should probably spray it with a sealer/primer. That will create a barrier b/t the two compounds and create a fresh surface to shoot. If not you run the risk of lifting or crinkling the new finish. Which is a nightmare to deal with.
  15. I would use fast evap pre-cleaner for automotive painting. Great stuff for overspray!!! It is used to wipe down a car just before painting.

    My dad (Diseazd) ordered the 280 seals from Nissan. Our go-to parts guy at Nissan said they would work perfectly.

    You can trust Kats, Carl Beck, Geezer and HLS30. In no particular order I imagine one of them will respond soon enough. Kats website is a great resource for seeing what the original car had. I believe his resto's are some of the best out there. http://www.geocities.jp/datsunz903/

    The color of this car is absolutely gorgeous!!!! Looks incredible with the contrast of the gunmetal rear panel. Superb job. Can't wait to see the finished product.

  23. car-part.com is a super resource. I can't even tell you how many things I've gotten off that site. Database of all US junkyards "good" inventory.

    Just curious if those extra panels were NOS or Tabco??
