Re: 72 2 Door 510 Restoration-25 years in the making

So sorry. That just sux. I suppose they could've chewed on the wiring so maybe lucky it's just cosmetic? (though the worst as far as a fix goes) i I happen to have an embroidered Datsun 510 patch that would probably just about cover that......

Re: KMS Tools Cars & Coffee, Abbotsford

Great photos Keith. Lot's of fabulous eye candy.

There's got to be a way to defeat the bots. I would think the captcha or sliding jigsaw puzzle piece should work? Maybe someone young and smart could figure out how to add that step in?

Re: Datsun Powerland V

Yep, I think it's per car, but not absolutely sure. Small price to help support this for future events. There's also a few museums on the property, so lot's to see.

Re: Yet Another Headlight Thread

I agree, it's something with how the leds work. My 72 is close to yours with a similar headlight setup. I spent a bunch of time(maybe not as much as you have) last year chasing and experimenting. I finally gave up and wired a lighted toggle switch and called it good. Works great...actually better fo...

I've got a fan for you. I'll have to dig it out. Think I paid $45 for it?

Alternator relay? Didn't you convert to internally regulated? Maybe not needed.?

Nice work on the eyebrow! I knew you could resurrect it.

Still looking for that front hood trim? I can keep my eye out for one at the Datsun swap meet next weekend if you're still in need.

Re: 72 2 Door 510 Restoration-25 years in the making

Thanks! I washed it with dish soap, water & a scrub brush of course, but to bring back the black I used S100 Engine brightener, of all things. It is far and away the BEST product to bring the luster back to trim, rubber, etc. And it takes NO effort. It's truly an amazing product. It's actually ...

Re: Carpet choices 2022..?

I got the cut pile. It's surprisingly light which may help with the shipping costs? Fits well enough around the tunnel and where it meets doors and heads up to the rocker panels.

I don't yet have an image service which I guess is needed to host photos here? What works best?
