Hey Mario

There's a dude that lives in Chukker Road, Kenilworth. He collects, strips, sells , restores old Datsuns...

I've often bought parts from him for my Z, ZX and SSS (510).

Unfortunately I dont have any other contact details for you, but I'm sure there are some guys on the Nissan Owners Forum that might know of him and his whereabouts...

Hope this helps

:x Rules are in the class I want to run is changing in a very negative way. So half of the mods that I need to do too have a upper hand will be illegal in after a year of racing.

So I will end up going with a different car. Probably a 510 Datto.

Dont want to sell the 260Z, however I cant build 2 cars at the same time! And I need the cash from the 260Z for the other build.

So pissed off regarding these rules that is gonna change! Screwed up all of my plans! :evil:

Hi Guys,

I need some help please.

Im looking for a panel beating shop in Cape Town that can do some old school restore work (cutting out bad metal and welding in new).

The panel beater I wanted to use doesnt have space at his place, and I dont have any at mine.

I would try do this myself, however I dont have the space or the tools (mainly need a MIG welder and space). Unless one of you guys have a space I can work with the right tools? :oops:

Please guys help a man out! Hate having the car just standing there...... :evil:
