fixed that foe you.

Wait, he has a 510 now?

Dammit I'm gonna have to check in on Ratsun more often.

Haha. I don't think he has a 510. I thought it was the 210. IDK.

This thread has seen more action in the last week than in the last few months Miss your witty and smartass comments mr Flatcat. He's been busy at home with life other than internet/datsuns, I'm sure that adds a little stress. He just needs a breather from NWD. He will see our messages and see we all miss him and hoping for some updates We'll be here Keef.

^ This.

Lots of stuff happening with the kids. Lots of stress for the wife and I.

Doing stuff to the 210 is my release. Work is happening. Stop fretting.



No, I'm not posting a lot. Really don't have the time to do so.
I am posting on Ratsun some. But my presence is way down.

Things I'm doing...
Still trying to square away parts to fit the rack and pinion properly.
Clean/repaint engine.
Figure a way to get in contact with Jacob regarding his dogleg trans.
Mod 210 seat rails to fit the other seats I have obtained. Hush, hush.
Secure a new set of wheels.
Scouring the yards around here for 280zx struts.
and more.

Relax, you scoundrels.
No rush equals better reward.

Maybe I'm being selfish. I have no problems with that.
I'm doing this for my enjoyment. Not yours.

But pictures, Even if they are of the gravel which the 210 sits over.



And I am right here. Maybe figure out how the tranny finds you? Or figure out a suitable dowry for the thing?

Eh. With no garage I imagine it's cold over there. 210 needs a snuggie

...annnnnddd thennnnnn?

OR...



Thoughts?
One of these 2 options will happen. 15x7, 0et.
Change of color? What do ya think?

Wheel choice and/or color will change project direction.

Equip knockoffs. The angles will go better with the body, imo.

And since the car is yellow, either gunmetal/black or just silver.

And since there are sooo many knockoffs of the wheel, you actually have options for a couple of different paints...

Option 1 in either black or raw centers.

Oh, I forgot to mention...yellow will be done. No more.

well then your options on color really depend on car color. So pick that...

Gold wheels...ivory and chrome
Black wheels...dark gray w black trim

I'm really leaning towards ivory.
I need to learn to Photoshop.

I need to know the color of the car before I can make a call. but from the choices, personal flavor says door #2. Tho 1 would still look badass.

Dark gray with those knock-off Wats in black/dark gray would look good.



I keep going back to Ivory though. With those gold Drags would look kinda flossy.





I do like dark gray cars though.

Jacob: I have something here for you. Sending stuff to Portland soon.
I'll make sure it finds you.

What is it? I dont even know...
