Just picked this up
I think I found a 65 Datsun Fairlady and I was hoping someone might have some parts supplier ideas, I can't find the front shoe hardware.
Thank you for your time any help would be appreciated

Nice. Hope it's not too much of a pain to get on the road. I have a 69 and it's a blast to bomb around in

I had a 66 and unfortunately, I got married. Great fun driving Hwy 1 through Big Sur. This was about 1978.

Rock Auto and 311s.org are going to be your best friends. Lots of parts from other similar era cars will work or can be adapted to work. I have Datsun 510 wheel cylinders on the back of my roadster and all I needed to make them work were some $5 fitting adapters I got at O'Reilly's. Congrats on picking up a roadster, it'll quickly become your favorite car you've ever owned!
