See this is why I love this site! Everyone thinking outside the box, giving me so much food for thought! I have about 200x75mm but there is a bit extra if I decide to run them under tailgate and blank out factory location. I'm not sure what year but...

Hi all, a few more pics, still on bloody driver side though! Found a bit of rust in sill which led to a bit more...awesome! Better to find it now I guess and repairs coming up good, panel beaters make it look so easy! I think there might also be an issue...

Hi all, I think d is right! After heaps of searching I am almost convinced the 67 nova tail lights are the go. I'm going to claim them as a datsun item! They do look very trick, hope to have them ASAP for install.

Update 1. Hey all, i guess im just excited, but It's always a good surprise to find no rust on a 1000 guard. Overall so far as rust goes body is very good, except the butchery on the back. Not looking forward to passenger side. There is a massive amount...

Heres a few pics of my ute finally at the panel beaters after 4 yrs sitting in garage in primer! One thing I highly recommend if your going to get panel work done is make sure they don't shaft you! I had already had body done and as you can see by pics...
