The next step is to get the original roof lining repaired and installed to see if the front seats need to be altered for bringing the sitting height down.

The task for refurbishing the roof is assigned to the guy who installed the firewall insulation.

I have observed that a lot of heat enters the cabin through the floor (especially through the hump for drive shaft and silencer).

Also the gear lever gets hot too and the rod is not insulated. So now I am thinking of the options for insulating the floors and the gear lever

you shall visit shershah scrap yard and locate such pieces of shield(s). usually these shields are deliberately stolen from vehicles by the service stations and or the silencer shops.

carefully bend & install shield isolating the transmission & floor from exhaust pipe path.

brother long time no post ?

Got caught in a lot of things since last month, so no updates on the Datsuns. The good thing is that this '82 one is now in running condition and is used on and off for small chores in neighbourhood limits.

Hopefully there will be some updates some.
