Just noticed that Spirit Garage are offering repair sheetmetal sections, including the ever-popular rail to sill boxes, and the firewall corner reinforcement boxes, which get eaten away from the inside:

(not what you would call cheap at Y69,000 though)

Classic Car Nagoya do a few bits too, contactable direct or through Nakazoto of the JNC parish.
The lower door skins look pretty useful.

Did anyone end up working out whether the C10 shared the same steering rod ends as other Dattos?

Nissan's first glimmer of serious effort on the sports car front was the A550X project, a proposed 2.0-liter GT intended as a joint venture with Yamaha.

Gabriel at TechnoToyTuning is supposedly working on front lower control arms and tie rods for our cars... No word yet on when they will be ready for sale but it's a glimmer of hope for those of us in the States

Wow that would be cool if he came thru on that one. I know that 280zx ball joints fit but you need to ream out the steering knuckle a little bit.

I've only seen the steering arms advertised at Victory50, and Rubber-Soul doesn't seem to have them (well it's not on their site).

Are they still available from Nissan?

Some cool news, though, the Hako is going to be in a magazine, they came and did the photoshoot yesterday (with the Luce in supporting role) :)

...funnily enough, the Hako has only been in US magazines, but never a local one until now.

BTW that pic was from my iPhone, the real pics they took were with plenty of flashes on stands, and looked very dramatic! There is also an interview video :D




(But with respect to the steering arms...)

I wonder if Hako steering arms are the same as Kenmeri? Because Datsport has these for about thirty bucks each:

Might be the same source as these:

Look at this on eBay:

DATSUN NISSAN SKYLINE C10 C110 HEADLIGHT BRACKET SET

http://bit.ly/L0SrPO

Slow shipping time from Bangkok to California but real nice item and affordable price - I bought a set

That first set Kev listed has trims with it. I might get that set.
