This is my personal blog about 72 Datsun 240Z callsign Goldie. First of all i would like to say that this is for those who have intrests in this type of car and for those who are in the same situation as i, starting from the scratch. I have little experience about cars and this is one way learning more. This car was no-running when i bought it and naturally i intend to make it run.

Smashing dash
After renovating the blower, i thought "what the heck" and dismantled half of the dash. Front panel is now off as are almost everything related to heating. There was ton of dirt and old tree leaves inside dash, i might as well put somekind of filter in there. Plan is to refurbish that worn old front panel and smoothen up the work of levers, they have been jammed by the crap. Chrome is in decent shape, actually this part is originally all chrome, black paint is just painted over. So it SHOULD be easy to fix..

Arigato.
Baby steps. I've sanded the fan blower and now priming it. It might even look good when i've finished it. That would be the very first time i managed to do something right :) New watercock is also visible in the same picture. In order to remove the old one i need something called impact driver. Maybe it'll do the trick. I managed to snap 2 bolts in the bumper while removing it, so the left bracket needs to be welded.. well, that's just me. Messing around as usual.
