Also just noticed the tire says R13 so I suppose the rims are 13", not 14"

Once the front wheels were on, I had four wheels, starting to look like a ute. Moved onto the interior and started installing a few bits and pieces. Installed window mechanisms and 1/4 windows + frames. Going to need a set of 1/4 window rubber seals. The felt lined rubber for the windows seemed extraordinarily long and I had to cut it to size. Got a feeling, again, that it was coupe related? Came with tinted windows...pimpin

Got the dash assembled (no pic though) I'm missing a glove box and a decent glove box lid. Surprised how easy it is to take the dash out. I also installed the wiper arms and mechanisms.

The ute came with 3 or 4 ziplock bags full of nuts and bolts and TONS of rubber grommets. I have no idea where the hell all these rubber grommets go but the wiper ones were easy to figure out so they are about the only grommets I installed so far. Also figured out the ones for the wiper motor bolts. The rest I am N.F.I. If anyone could point me in a direction where they all go that would be great because I literally have a large size ziplock bag full of them. I dunno if it takes that many rubbers to plug a Datsun 1200.

Also test fitted the seats. Autotechnica brand, comfy. Have yet to actually mount them. Guidance needed there as well. I am thinking 2 steel flat sections per seat with bolts to the seat and bolts to the original rails?

Steering wheel on. Won it for 10 dollars on eBay. Autotechnica black leather, near new. Already had a brand new hub and horn button from previous owner.

Is there any replacement for the clip that holds on the inner wiper arms tight to the little tab off of the wiper motor? Mine seems to be missing.

lost mine so I now just use a circlip

Cool thanks

Pictures on day 10, as complete as I could get the ute before towing it away to the shipper. I hate the later style plastic grille. I am going to convert to the earlier metal grille later on.

After working on the ute 10 days straight, trying to take my time and do things right but also trying to finish it in time....I am happy to take a break while it floats in the Pacific. Just hope it doesn't sink on it's way here. Or get taken away by pirates.

Agreed. Plastic grills suck. Platic girls even more

Getting anxious. Can't wait to see it again.

These puppies arrived in the mail today.
