hi there everyone im new to this club,i hope this is the right place to put this???

well basicly i want to write up a thread about this 1200 ute ,
im a spraypainter from melbourne and
myself and a fellow trademan are about to start work on a restoration of a 1972 datsun 1200 ute,i thought id like to post up a few pics and write about the progress being made as we go along,
also once the ute has been completed it will be up for sale,so keep that in mind ,
if someone out there is looking for a ute to suit a motor conversion ,possibly rotary,ca18,turbo,what ever then this could be one ute to look at!
basicly it will be getting a full bare metal respray to start with this includes the interior,engine bay and out side,so the gneral out come of the ute will be up to a show room condition,

ive worked on many many restorations in the years that i have been a painter so i have all the experince nessary to undertake a project like this,also the fellow tradesman who will be working along side me on this has just restored his own car up to imaculate condition.


i my self have just finished a basic tidy and paint on a ke55 corolla ,which can be viewed at rolla.com under box on wheels, and last year i finished a full restoration on a series 2 rx7 which came out to a great finish,

so having said all that the next one is the datsun 1200 ute,
it will be having 2 tradesman painters and one tradesman panelbeater working on it so we can pretty much guarentee a good out come ,

now this is the first datsun i have worked on so i hope that you for give my ignorance if i ask a stupid question or2 about parts etc,no dout ill be getting to know the little datsun very well over the next few months ,but still i may need to ask you guys a few things ,hope you will help me out if needed ,cheers in advance,


ill try to figure out how to put the pics up shortly
