Let me know when you've got your new rear subframe in. Did you have a moustache bar too? I'll even collect that diff when I come get them.

whats por15???

hey bart.....when are you gonna collect your shit from my place??

When the weather improves.

Por15 is an amazing super durable rust preventative paint

It sure is, and datsunboys inner sills are covered in it. theres no way that sucker will rust again in this lifetime.
