- Today I am chemically removing all the paint and rust off this 1977 Datsun 280z.
I am using a proprietary 3 step process involving A paint removing alkaline, rust removing acid, and a water based rust inhibitor.

Who could have imagined we’d ever be dipping what was considered a throw away car in the 80’s. Nice work
My mechanics has a few videos restoring one of these. The man is genius and fixes most of the factory defects.
I wonder how many times a customer gets their car back and they get to see the body clear of all bondo, rust & crap and they think "man I have really bitten off much more than I can chew, what do I do now ?" !!!
These cars where not safe new, god knows what structural integrity it has now.
Not any worse than the vega or the pinto.@@robertfairburn9979
I'd say that it's a candidate for chopping up and selling of the good(ish) panels, in this case.
They were fun to drive though.
I wonder if some punter has ever flipped out on him, like "WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY CAR!!??"...lol 😄
I am truly surprised that ANY of thst vehicle came out of the acid bath lol. I absolutely love the work that you put in to begin the restoration process... and the channel itself. Thank you for anotjer wonderful video.🙏💜
Wow, cool car, it needs a lot of work, but I'd love to see that restored. I was a detailer at a Datsun dealer before Nissan took them over, I got to drive these cars brand new right off the car carriers, the seats still had plastic wrap on them, I had to cut the plastic off and wash and detail them, and they made me go with the customer on a new test drive! Great video, thanks ! Brings back memories.
the channel My Mechanics is restoring one, and he's very detailed.
It was the first car I owned in my youth. What beautiful memories and I hope it will be well restored. This car is really amazing
Me too - I love seeing them restored and wish I could have afforded to do that with mine.
Hahaha... they were probably wondering for years what that noise is they keep hearing 🤔🤨
If that was a 10mm socket, I'm the one that lost it. 😅
Aren't we al ?
Beautiful job on a beautiful car. Your vids are more relaxing than yoga sessions or a visit at the psychologist. Thank you! 💯👍🫶
You always bring back some memories with the cars that yo show on here. 👍💯
I'd like to see a segment of cleaning out the vats at some point.
Great car, love to see it when its finished, as you say a lot to do. Off to do some work after a destress watching👍 wh are they so relaxing to watch😄
Another great video! Thank you 👍. They could easily be longer.
That cowl damage is pretty unusual. Floorpans look typical. My '72 240Z was in similar condition.
Just met the owner of this car last night! Highly recommend you for chemical dipping, great work
Did you offer your condolences? Ooofff
I like to enjoy you dipping the cars i never miss one great job
I loved these cars in the early 1980's I worked on these repainting them, sad to say they were noted for bad rust. They were mechanically very reliable and drove very well but, the Bristish weather made quick work of them and they always kept me busy in the paint shop.
This is better than watching pimple popping!
Extensive sheet metal work by an experienced body man and that'll be a nice ride. Suspenson upgrades and a RB25DET, excellent track day car.
You should do a follow up video of the cars that you dipped and then show them after a full restoration pic. That would be pretty cool
There's my 1/4 inch drive my grandson had no idea what happened to... LOL... I'm kinda surprised at how good of shape this is in... my buddy bought a '75 a few years back, and chicken wire had more metal in it than the floorpan. Under the carpet, on the drivers side, there was a plastic cafeteria tray for "support"... these are beautiful cars to drive, but jeezuz they rotted terrible.
Great video and brilliant work gave the restoration people a decent canvas to work from. There must be some horror stories of cars with very little left to work from. ❤
I had a 77 280Z, if it was anything like my Z if you dip it there won’t be anything left. What a rust bucket.
Seen worse. This one got some weird rust spots, but overall front is in perfect condition :o
I'm a Datsun enthusiast, I've had z cars, my uncle worked at a Datsun/Peugeot dealer when I was a kid. Strangely, I prefer the B210/B310, Maxima's and 620/720 trucks. We got a new 1984 720 truck when I was little and I picked it out of the line of them. I currently own a 1979 B310( aka 210, no B) wagon. Little thing sat in a junkyard at least 10 years and a fresh can of gas and a hot battery and she's run ever since I got it home. There's a reason Datsuns were called Atomic cockroaches. Mechanically they are very tough. The new 1984 720 didn't make it ten years before the rust made it unsafe. They can rust real bad. Not every one but they were prone to it. My 79 wagon needs a little rocker work and I'm sure a few bolts will break but otherwise she ain't bad.
Can you tell me what kind of Nissan (Datsun) model Iran produces today? We have a lot of their cars in Central Asia, and they are new
same here, though i do have a Z ive always loved the 620s. I just picked one up recently and im hoping to build it into a track machine
Looks good 👍 you scored some tools too.
considering how much time is taken up removing all the paint and bondo this service is fantastic , sold me , when you start at a fresh point and can see the extent of the rust you can tell exactly what you need to do
I owned a 1980 280ZX 2+2 between 1984 and 1988 and loved it. The problem was I kept getting pulled over by plod to check my credentials because they couldn't beleive a 25 year old could own such a car. Wish I'd hung onto it it now.
I recall when they first came out. I dreamed of someday owning one
Man, that Koosh Ball is invincible! Like 30 years old, survives a chemical dip and still comes out intact.
It's really lovely to see it revealed. What needs to be done. Have a great 2024.
Great demo! Thx.
Really excellent work!
Do you guys also dip hardware or other pieces of a vehicle besides body panels/car/frame?
Can you tell what chemicals are used in these baths? and how much material (metal) is lost in this process?
this elderly lady needs some healing...but your beauty baths rejuvenated her quite well....this could be a gem in the making
How long do the acid baths take? Love this process btw!
I remember working on a 240z back in the 1980s lovely sweet running straight six, the interior was Datsun Cherry horrible plastic, opened the bonnet to find the old style steering box wasn't attached to anything, the lower chassis rail had long crumbled to red dust
I love watching your videos. Greetings from Ireland! Could you tell us what the chemicals are, how long they are dipped in for and what temperatures are involved. Just for the nerd CPA in me!
I always wanted one
I had a 74 240z in 84, if you dipped it you would be lucky to get the roof skin as it was so rusty
Great video!
Wow, so much work to do. I would be surprised to see this completed to a high standard.
They can replace the entire chassis! ;-)
Pretty cool. What happens to the toxic material that comes off the car?
just found your chanel JESUS i am A FAN
Thank you!
Good.job. Nice job 😄😄👍👍👏👏👏
Great job and video! The Japanese didn’t have a decent protection and paint process until the 1990s.
Beautiful job, my brother.
Thanks buddy! I appreciate that
thank you.
Cars are such rust magnets!
i have never quite understood why some paint remains after a dip. Its all factory primed n painted at same time under same environment. So why does some paint stick better than the rest?
dang thats a lot of rust. car better have some sentimental value
What acid do you use for the acid bath? And what do you use for the neutralizing bath? Will appreciate very much the info.
I'd really like to follow the builds for some of these cars. Do you ever post the builders links so we can follow them?
im in the process of building one over on my channel if youre interested!
@@LooseFab yes for sure!
It looks like it has spent a good portion of its life either on the coast or in the rust belt area. That is going to be a ton of metal replacement. They are a cool car though and not seen too much anymore sadly. That is one of the beefiest trans. tunnels i have ever seen though.
Aprendí a conducir con los coches datsun les tengo un cariño especial a estos coches
Oh good , the rubber dolls back .😅😅 OH No Mr. BILL
I wish someone offered this service in my location!
Would have been worth every penny!
Media blasting was expensive and too took forever to blow out all the remaining media.
That’s where my 10mm socket went
10mm reclaimed, good day
Wow, a lot of work to do on that car 😮
what chemistry is used at each stage? / какая химия используется на каждом этапе?
Was that the mysterious disappearing 10 mm socket?😂😂😂
I miss my old 240Z great little sports car should never have sold it Didn’t even need too could have sat in the shed till now oh well regrets👍🇦🇺
How do you clean your dipping cleaner tub after use
Bit of bog in that one
I am surprised there was any car left to pull out
Bu there is 😂😂
Do you have any dips of the doors? They have to just fall apart.
Those pesky 10mm always hiding
When I was a kid growing up in New York these cars would literally disintegrate after a few winters, we used to joke that they were made out of sardine cans!🤣🤣🤣
I had a Datsun 2000, purchased in 1969. It was no secret the metal was not treated very well and rusted easily. Bad Nissan, Bad.
best place to do this before restore
Почему не хочешь снять видео ролик куда утилизируешь отходы от производства
My gosh, a lot of work, in my opinion too much to do with rust repairs. How do you keep the metal from rust flashing over as the metal get etched by the acid. Thanks for the video
Those cars seems to rust more than any other car. We can find on TH-cam several restorations of this from the US, UK Japan and we are all very rusted. Those who want to become car body expert have to go through the restoration of one of these.
I got one up in canada, we salt our roads so im amazed its still in good shape!
Japanese sheet metal in the 70s was re-rolled scrap with a low manganese content (it had to be imported, thus expensive.)
Thus all Datsuns are EXTREMELY prone to rust. DAMHIK...
Nice Dip
It would be a 10 mm socket and wrench.
Restored a 70 240z and a 71 240z. One required rust repair, the other was darn near a resurrection from all the rot. I spent the whole restoration budget on rust repair...had to dump it for a song after I never recovered financially. Learned my lesson with that one: NEVER AGAIN. Rust repair is never finished on these old Z cars, they rot just from being driven in the rain. This one needs thousands in metal repair...like $10-15k, unless the owner is going to do it themselves. The floor, cowl, lower doglegs, and hatch rot would ordinarily be enough to doom it.
I envied the guy in high school who had a brand new 280Z.
i would like to see a 77 or 78 firebird done
can we see one of these times what happens to the old dip solution, the stuff in it, and what happens to the waste water from power washig?
What is the rope made from?
Rust 💯😵
Where are you located
What is the removal solution?
Amigo coloque legenda em Português Brasil e muito stre o carro pronto.
Здравствуйте, хотелость бы узнать какие реагенты используют, что так хорошо отелает старая краска??????
I can't imagine the amount of work it will take to get all that rust damage restored. Someone must have deep pockets to bring this car back to life.
As much as I love seeing these old cars and these in particular brought back, whoever brings this one back is honestly a fool. That one is just too far gone to justify the insane amount of patching it is going to require. Especially when you consider they aren't exactly rare and in the south are fairly easy to get for a couple grand with minimal rust. I picked up an 82 as a resto project a couple of years ago for $800 with virtually no rust. Would have cost me probably $1500ish if it had an engine in it, but I had zero need ot the engine and just needed a body. Still point being, not expensive or hard to find.
@@OmegaGamingNetwork for $800? that is YEARS ago. Over here in Europe they are expensive, searched in US and found several cars for $30k or more?
Again I said a couple years ago and it was a body with no engine. That said I just checked marketplace and found several project cars anywhere from 1500-3000. Only place I see them running for insane amounts of money are sites like classic which is where people with lots of money and no desire for a project shop.
You forgot the "before" shots
Lucky the entire uni-frame didn’t completely disintegrate 😂
I'm sure there's a stash of missing 10mm sockets in there.....
Have you ever had a vehicle come out of the dip tank so rusted it folded?
Toyota TACOS
How can I set it up to bring my car? What’s the name of the shop?
I want someone start to manufacture the datsun frames
I love these body Z cars 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
you should check out the one im building on my channel if you're a Z car guy!
Socket on the wrench is probably a 10-mil, because it's ALWAYS a 10-mil.
Omg theres a little man on the front!
What's this product for remove paint?
No videos with Karmann Ghia?
Great job!whats the concentration of the chemicals in the tub? What prevents the body from flash rust after the baths?
The last step includes a rust inhibitor, it will give you a couple of days to get a primer on before it starts rusting.
@@TheStuffMade we don't have something like this here, is it acid based?
@@BeetleJuice1980 Not sure what the actual chemical composition is, but it's not an acid, perhaps it's based on dicyclohexylammonium nitrite. I believe it's available world wide. For this kind of application or blasting you'd usually use a water based rust inhibitor.
How about some comments when the owners of these cars see's them after they are cleaned?????
I am in Australia and probably about to buy a Land Rover to restore. Do you know of anyone over here doing this paint stripping method? It does look cool and a LOT less work.
Yeah there should be a few places doing it. If you talking like an old series land rover your best bet is to just get the chassis galvinised, they will dip it during the process. Body is nearly all aluminium so not much sense dipping that
Yeah, I'm talking about a Series 2A.
I'd love to be buying a running, driving one but the cost of them is madness here in Australia..... so I'm maybe buying a chassis, a box of bolts, some panels, a gearbox, and an engine. Oh, but I've got one of those workshop manuals. I'm autistic (smarter than einstein, but dumber than a pallet of rocks) so I should right, yeah?
I have one in mind that is supposed to only need the front end caps replacing - yeah, I'm sceptical, too.
And, as much as I really want one that was purpose built for the Australian Army - with an upgraded and hot-gal dipped chassis and an Isuzu engine - I might as well wished I'd have grown wings so I could fly.
So much for disability and discrimination. So long as someone else is doing the handing out, right?
Could we have the IG/YT etc. of the owners? Provided they approve, ofc. Would be fun to follow these projects!
