One thing that I’ve always wanted in the car was a Nardi Classic steering wheel, yet I was torn between woodgrain and leather. I love the way woodgrain looks, but I was never sure of how it felt. When a leather 350mm classic came up for sale at a low price, I snapped it up [...]
Here is the fourth Speedhunters article to be posted, this one is about my own project car. Many of you who have been following this blog since the start would be familiar with this particular automobile, but this article really takes it back to how it all started for me, plus there are some images [...]
I get hits from all kinds of random forums, and every now and BMX in Scotland pops up in my stats section so I thought I’d throw this pic up in response. This is my two-wheeled project, so expect a full write-up when it’s completed. I’m also working on my fourth and final Speedhunters feature, [...]
In my last update on the Datsun, I mentioned my diff was playing up just after I installed my CV driveshaft conversion. One of the first things I did was drain the diff oil and inspect the drain plug. This is what I found…

With the low-ride height I like the datto to roll at, there are no doubts I would run into a few obstacles (both literally and mechanically). One of those is the extreme angle that the drive-shafts operate at. Since [...]

Today me and a couple of friends jumped in the Datto and ventured out into the cold & miserable Melbourne weather to attend a “chrome bumper” Japanese car meet. In total there was about 40 or 50 cars, from Datsuns to Mazdas, Toyotas, and even a couple of old Hondas. It was great to see [...]
