Welcome to my Blog!

Welcome to my Blog devoted to the restoration of my 1972 Datsun 240z. I purchased it in 2013 and have been actively working on my driving-restoration, so I can enjoy the car rather than having it in pieces for years. Please enjoy the write-ups below, as well as the how-to's. Feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any comments or questions. Thanks. - Dave

Rust Solutions

Over the weekend I decided to tackle the un-fun job of rust repair/prevention.  I chose to start with the internal frame rails to prevent them from rusting from the inside out.  I purchased two cans of Eastwood's internal coating which included a length of hose and their special nozzle that sprays the paint in all directions once inside the frame.


I was quite impressed with the volume of paint that was discharged from the nozzle and the way it spread throughout the frame rails.  I was also able to see the "holes" that exist where they shouldn't so that will become another project to tackle at some point.
