Nice work Jimmy Somerville! top level respect to ya for splashing the cash. Cheers Well, the way i see it is, i could do it myself, with my 'chicken-poop' welding sk1lloRZ and be unhappy with it or lay out the 1300odd queens to get it done by a professional...a guy that has done the bodywork on show-winning, front cover of magazine cars and not have to worry about the inevitable problems later on with my own shonky work. Just gotta work out how to 'hide' the airbags money

Alright Johnny. Didn't know you bought this... That interior is the tits.
Yeah that PCD is the same as 5 stud Nissan or 5 stud US Ford. So for example the Cragar's on my car would fit on your Cedric.

Next year I'll be looking in to getting some AR wheels or maybe Radir's on whitewalls... How comes you haven't posted a thread on the Datsun forum?

Right, I know I said I wouldn't but Its a lovely day so I thought I'd furnish you lot with some update pics of the Cedric. All the welding is done and it's partially stripped for the paint. I'm taking it down to Bournemouth to Kustom Kolors where one weekend next month, I'm gonna be borrowing the booth and shooting it in 2K black under the watchful eye of caddycol. So at the start of April, she'll be getting stripped as far as possible and rubbed down ready for her new coat ;D But for now, here's how it stands right this minute. Scruffy but MOT'd and road legal: Mmmmm, new sills and door bottoms! Deleted mirrors: Nosed: Decked: This will be EFI by the Autumn:
