Only time will tell. Hopefully not too much. (Time) :)

Artists and the like are often not the best at planning, and have different strengths they bring to the scene, but don't worry, you have the knowledge and skills necessary for success again! What do you need? I don't have a lot of parts, but perhaps if you post a list our vast family can help gather together what you need to get you behind the wheel and not just in the driveway :D. Years ago you took it upon yourself to send me a section of decorative metal for the front of my airdam, and I would be happy to return the favor to help put a smile on your face. Life can suck sometimes... We're going through a rough season ourselves right now, and the biggest relief is the Datsun and an open road. If I can help, I'm in.

Hey thanks, Greg

I still have the missing side trim. Even rustled up a tube to safely ship it in......
Thanks David. Although we've never met, you've always been a good cheeleader. (Can I still use such language in today's environment? ? :))
Anyway, you know what I mean

Let me know if any parts in "the stash" at my house would help your effort. They are primarily high screen (69) parts, but let's see what fits.
Don't feel bad, mine is still running, but I have yet to paint the hood/trunklid, which I have been talking about for about.... 15 of the 19 years owned, give or take. My girls are 14 and 15 (note the numeric similarity...) and have a tendency to "re-prioritize" things o a regular basis.
Ferg!
Wow. 14 and 15? I seem to remember you showing up at Solvang with one when they were still cute little aliens lol:)
They sure grow fast, and yeah, they kind of have that way of taking over your life.

Not much , but I did do some cleaning and refamiliarizing myself with this machine which has spent the last few years under tarps.

I guess the thing to do is an assessment of what's needed just to fire her up again. That would be a big win right there.
