Hi Guys
I am a new boy to this site and an old boy as far as Datto drivers go. I have a 1973 Datsun Coupe( since new) I am just about to restore to as good a condition as possible.
I need i) a turrent/roof as the original was covered in vinyl
ii) a boot lid, as this was also in vinyl.
iii)a bonnet. This is cracking as are the boot and the the bonnet.
There are some "incidentals' I need to make it GREAT car again. As I need them I will be "asking " for HELP", One is MAG wheels for the "old girl" 13/s good 14's good.
Contact on 'dawes@peopel.net.au" good or this address.

Thanking everyone in advance, I know I will get help!
Cheers

re do the vinyl roof. Most cars that got the vinyl roofs got them for a reason ie the roof pannel fitment was bad @ the factory or trimmers like me fitted them after hail storms to hide damage vinyl roofs look cool id re do it if i was you

location could help

Hi Pigdog

I live in Bull, on the coast with the Wollongong suburbs. I also appreciate that the vinyl was put there for a reason> ie poor quality steel in the turrent. I live in hope that I may pick up a replacement roof to avoid the vinyl.
Cheers and beers
