You know it’s going to be good when Rudeboy calls and tells us that he picked up a new car. What we didn’t realize was just how cool a Datsun 280Z could be as a kaido racer base. Join us this wake as Rude and Mr. Dude dig into their crusty new Datsun and start the process of figuring out how to get it to run and where to go from there.
Rudeboy is no stranger to building incredible cars out of rough bases (just take a look at the car he and Keith built for New Year Touring for example). The shape of a Datsun Z car is a perfect place to start off building a car for the next touring.
We’re sure this will turn into a multipart video series so we have decided to make a “Rudeboy” playlist on YouTube and have started to assemble all of our Rudeboy, Touring, and Kaido Racer content there. Keep your eyes on that space in the future!
Before we go; we want to express our appreciation for everyone who has been supporting us. Everyone who has been watching our YouTube channel, buying good goods or merchandise, reading the blog like you are now, or sharing our content on social media, we seriously appreciate all of the love and encouragement that we’ve received and can’t thank you enough, it keeps us moving.
Our new drop of Japanese Good Goods has gone live and lots of items have already sold out!

If you’ve managed to actually read this far, here’s a bonus. The Alphard has landed in Vancouver and is scheduled for pickup from the port early next week. We will have some van content very soon, just need to get it inspected and registered and then the party can begin!
See you soon.
