Datsun 240Z Restoration - The Bodywork Odyssey (Part 2)

In this video I start doing all the bodywork on the car to get it ready for blasting. This is the first half of it. The second half is coming next week in episode 3. First I vacuumed the whole car and removed the sound deadening. Next I needed to remove the undercoating on the rotisserie. I used an infrared lamp and a scraper to remove it. I also did the same on the fenders. Now the car is ready to get all dents removed by my friend from . All panels were quickly reassembled to the chassis and the car back on jack stands. He was able to remove all dents from the complete car in just one day. Now it’s time to start doing all the bodywork. I started with closing the holes from the side markers. They’re not mandatory in Switzerland and I prefer the clean look. Then I drilled four new holes in both fenders to install some fender mirrors. I really like that japanese style of them, you can’t see much, but it’s just about the look. That means I don’t need the door mirror any
