This is a side shot from about the same time. I was also in the process of installing the headliner. 1st time for that and with any luck,

the last.

Found a pic of the motor somewhat put together.

Just a small problem with that seal. Story of my life, just a little to small. Pretty sure that was a Felrpro kit.

Thanks, I wish I could claim the talent that did the body work but not so much.  This car is mostly done and we took first place in the "Other Datsun Class" at the Williams show this last October.  This car was built for my wife......

 

It is her first show car.

Williams was her first car show.

Her first show car took first at her first car show.

 

So far, this is my favorite shot.

My exgirl friend had one of these same color we called The Frog.  She followed me in 1978 from Phoenix to Salt Lake City to live.  I was riding my 68 Harley Dresser.  In 1980 I pulled The Frog's motor and rebuilt it.  Great car for many years.

Since most of the posts in here are about me not knowing how to or just simply failing to post pics, I think I will just randomly post what I find.

 

The day we bough it.  Sometine in August of 2011.

Notice the custom E brake.

The wife's first Datsun drive. When she got back, she asked me "Honey, can I have it?"

Damn straight.  Very nice Coupe Kelly.  I miss my yellow 1200 Coupe I owned about 8 years ago.  Even though I had a sedan, I have always preferred the Coupe body style.

 

That is beautiful. Looks even better in person.  :thumbup:

Thanks guys, I can't take credit for the body work but I will for everything else. :thumbup:

 

I would love to have a 521 and a 620 but the wife has a rule of no more than 2 non running datsuns at a time (currently have 3 that don't run, everybody keep yer mouth shut). Also, you said "finish the cars for your wife"......bwahahahahaha. Finish, thats a good one.

One day, just maybe, I will remember to resize pics but don't hold your breath.
