So true Linda! Peter H., Holden, Gary (Randy) and Diana were great help too and all the other helpers. Everyone was soooo nice and I never heard the helpers complain or be other than A+ at their jobs. Harlan makes it fun. A+ job everyone.

Great show, perfect weather, well worth the trip.
And I 'found' a great place for after Mendenhall (well, I didn't find it, someone told me)
Santa Ynez, 3 miles from Solvang - Mavericks Bar. Busy, alive, frisky, fun, good band and outdoor patio.
AND, they offer shuttle service so you don't have to worry about being a guest of Solvang's 'finest'.

Re: 2019 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic
We had a great time at the Solvang Show. I'll have a full report soon but I thought sharing a few highlights this week would be fun. Enjoy the pictures!
Highlights from the Solvang Show (1/3)
Eric Straw's 1969 SRL
SR22VET with a Nissan 350z 6-speed transmission, Factory OEM(!) Hardtop, 225 front/245 rear tires, Brembo calipers, lowered floorpans for Lotus Elise seats and so much more.
Eric's fabrication skills are really displayed in this chassis with full coil-over suspension and a Watts-linkage. #craftsmanship

Re: 2019 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic
My wife saw this car and then John B's and asked me "will yours look like one of these when you're done? "
I then realized I may have oversold things a bit so I had to laugh a little and then cry

My wife asked me the same thing when we looked at Mark Taillon’s Silver 2000 at Solvang in 2013! I simply said “nope...â€

Re: 2019 Solvang Datsun Roadster Classic
What's it like to drive Eric's car with a rear suspension like that, and that kind of power? We need a video!

Highlights from the Solvang Show (2/3)
John Baker's 1969 SRL
Several years of intense restoration by John has resulted in one stunning, concours-level 2000. Finished in Spanish Red with plenty of engine bay details to drool over. Best part is that it is driven, even with the Bias-ply tires! Well done, John!
