Here's is my dearest Nissan - muddy and a bit rusty. It will be undergoing extensive repairs throughout 2011 and me and bro are considering a compressor potentially. It's the 4.2D engine and could do with some extra boost

Will do. Will be using some imagination as we're doing the whole thing on our own. Breaks and suspension will be first - then engine work. Have accumulated some manuals and advice - so we are hopeful :) It's annoying because it will take a while to get it off the road again as we only have the weekends to work on it, but how sweet the first ride will be once we get there :) Thanks for support, guys!

Nice looking troll mate, I especially like the mud decorating down the side of her. Keep us up to date with the repairs and mods. It will give me more things for me to spend money on also :)

hiya mate, welcome to the forum,

not sure how you have been getting on getting parts etc, but I have brought a few things off eBay.co.uk from a guy called
Nissan1st
http://myworld.ebay.com.au/nissan_1st/

he wrecks nissans, so he may have some goodies for you

another I have used is

Windleys Salvage - in Linc's (LN4 4JS - you should find them from the post code)

good luck, and let us all know how your re-build is going


cheers
