Like this?





I was hesitant to give it a go because I've never been shown how to spray paint or ever had a go at it, but after doing the wing yesterday I decided to do the bumper today. Replacement front guards and drivers door are going to be under way tomorrow.

When I can eventually afford to get it resprayed professionally I will as my painting skills aren't the greatest by far, bit orange peely by hey, doesn't look too bad.

Oh and it's not a 'kit' its a factory front bar with optional factory lip, all nissan original plastic from Japan. biggrin.gif


WINNING!!! luxury side skirts and lip next?

Completely gutted out then fitted a Mk2 dash to the Mk3 shell, finished the loom off, repaired and replaced damaged rear bumper, swapped the Mk3 rear subframe with the Mk2's which had better shocks and swaybar etc...

It's coming together nicely wink.gif

More work on the old HJ45 ute.

Rebuilt the exhaust after it got ripped off thrashing through the bush mustering. Pretty ghetto stuff but it should be a bit less prone to needing repairs.

All of the tray-to-chassis mounts cracked at the welds so i had to zap them back up again. Whoever built the tray on this didnt do a very good job so im going to have to hunt around for some 125x50 RHS or something aimiliar to make a rear light bar/numberplate holder as it also forms an integral part of the tray mount and the 1.5mm C Channel thats been used just wasnt up to the task. I dont know what ill do yet but i seem to be putting an awful lot of though into what is really just a bush hack. All good fun though.

Also, chased wild scrubber bulls through the bush one by one.

well i took it out of the bent chassis - reason being is that i need the suspension buts cut off the bent chassis and welded to the new chassis.
easier to transport/do with the driveline out, and gives me a chance to clean it up besides

Tensioned up everything I hadn't gotten around to doing
Wound up the coilovers so the engine crane can fit under so I can put the engine back in.
Took it off jack stands.

i do a lot of travelling and have never once bought one........but the nullarbor was pretty cool so i decided to immortalise that epic adventure in self adhesive form.Today I looked at it, saw its sitting about 1" deep in grassy water from todays rain and came to the conclusion if I try to move it I will a) get wet feet but more importantly 2) bog it.. So it can sit there until the ground dries.
