I would sincerely be interested in something like that (in RHD).....

RHD is just welding the rack clamps on the other way. I have a RHD version in my coupe.

Yeah, I just plopped the one emblem I've got on the flatbed scanner then did the model in Fusion 360.

Rush how did you do the badge? Did you scan it? Find matching font? I printed this a while ago. For my buddies datsun roadster, RHD parts are impossible to find. So we scanned and printed a LHD one then mirrored and printed it. I love 3D printing. I print stuff all the time. So handy. I printed a th...

When I did LED headlights I just repined the plug, super easy to pull the pins out and move them. I never hooked the high beams up. I live in the city, so headlights are so I don't get pulled over haha.

update!  Zero stink (okay still the smell of baby oil slightly from the smoke machine) wow I wish I would have known how to fix this 20 years ago.  Such a nicer car to drive.  I have a cut up quarter panel in the back yard.  Here is a picture of where the stink access the cabin.  You can see the cut...

Our cheap ebay rad didn't leak after this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We got a resin printer at work. For testing I drew up a Datsun Roadster heater control switch knob. Black is the OG one. The orange is version 1 clear is the latest version.

Got my coupe going again. Lost all the brakes a while ago. I procrastinated because i thought the JDM replacement for the brake switch was giant T making the system if you lost any of the brakes you lost all of them. Turns out I was wrong. unfortunately I had to pull it all part to find out. After f...
