'67 Datto Restoration

[borgasm]

Thats my paver cleaner attachment for the pressure cleaner. I use it to clean tennis courts. They do all the hard work for you and clean every square millimeter of a surface, you just have to wash the mess off afterwards. Quite boring to use as you have to walk super slow, but it does the best job and brings mossy and stained concrete or pavers back to looking almost new.

I never knew that was a thing. Ive drawn a dickbutt on a court before too

I'll have some photos that would fit into that site quite well. We had a synthetic grass court with so much moss growing on it you couldnt see the lines. we scraped off 4 wheelie bins of moss before we even started. It looked great afterwards.

Ive also had a batch of 4 painted tennis courts that we had to clean. I pulled off about 4 wheelbarrows of crap that the paver cleaner loosened just to make the cleanup easier. we would have pushed that much down the drains too.

I pressure cleaned a court the other day Inky that should prolly go on the pressure cleaning porn site. They'd love it.

I Painted the surround of my shed and part of my driveway today. Fuck it feels good to have such a major looking step done. I'll take some pics in the light tomorrow and show you all. Now I have no excuse to get my shit sorted and organise the new shed and keep things tidy. Then I can get working on my Datto again. Much excites, many happys.

Driveway and shed apron now painted. Time to install ...

The sink out the back,
Gutter on right side,
Electrical fit out.

Then its time to organise the shed and get back to building the Datto. Such a long wait, but feels awesome to have it so close to complete.

These are good lookin ones:

The top one is saved on my phone to explain my car to people since noone has heard of it

The bottom one is kind of a ring in though, its a 410 body, but its been gutted and a mazda MX5 has been welded in place. Bit of a weapon really.

The colours im thinking of at the moment are similar to the red one with the old school air con hanging off it, with a black roof. Colour change will happen at the bottom of the A-pillar, and go along the rain gutter. Then lowered, but not as much as the blue one because the work involved it a bit insane.

Still excited about it though, I'll get back into it hard-core after christmas. Ive been working on some of the suspension bits in the mean time.

70s aren't so bad either

[borgasm]

The whole 60's / 70's eras of cars were so much better looking in my opinion than todays cars. I was looking for a volvo 1800es when I found my datsun. Just too hard to find in Aus. Im thinking of swapping my daily driver (audi a4) for an F100 for a bit more style too.

Ive been doing some rust repair panels on the car, and Im about a third of the way through that. Unfortunately the previous paint work I have done underneath needs to be removed though. Ive found out that the car body is galvinised steel and I didn't use the correct primer so its flaking off when I work on it. Not good for a long term paint job.

Yeah, a favorite comedian of mine reckons all new cars look the same, like a dinner roll. Sucks about the underside. Those Volvos look weird stock but the modded ones look pretty aggressive.

[borgasm]

yeah, takes a fair bit to mod them tho. the datsun is definitely an easier project.

Ive found a 63 F100 im interested in, but its out near Bathurst. bit of a drive to go look at it from Adelaide. I'll sell the audi first and get in touch with him for more pics
