Im going to drive it now. its been 7 months.
I do need 6 long stud side moulding clips, with both washers and nuts. (rear 1/4)
ok if they are nasty, I can blastem and paintem.
I dont know about the springs. very dirty under there. I wiped one a bit and it has a paint stripe on it if that means anything. it does sit lower than "stock" in the front. That could be the worn front end parts!

Glad to see you made it to Kelowna in one piece. You've done a ton to the car is a short period of time, keep it up!

Two summers ago my wife caught the datsun turning over to all zeros on a drive, with me saying "it's a new car" in my best game show host voice.

This was 3.5 years ago. So the carbs probably match a little better now lol.
I should probably clean the air filter
