Hi Phil,
It's -1.5. The kid that shot this used a funky lens.

Marsh park. My Dad swam there back in 1945-55. I think I swam there in 77. I preferred jumping from train bridges in 78. My how the landscape has changed.
The malts at Burgermaster are awesome. We should try and get 7 or 8 Datsuns in there one day. The tray wont work for me, Andy has no door glass.
Very Nice Datsun.

Good eye Mr. P., the second was taken on Waverly Way. Are you talking the Burgermaster on Northup?

The only change to the car was adding more oil to the carbs. Yes it did run better.

Woke up my roadsters from their winter slumber...64 degrees and sunny in western NY. Took a ride along Lake Ontario shoreline, top down.

Drove to the Exotics at Redmond Town Center car show this morning.
Our very on PNW "Super Car Sunday" type event.
No Jay Leno like the show Linda goes to and pretends to be his good buddy! :lol: :lol:
BUT Cars full of Microsoft Money on display.
2016 opening day today. 401 cars!!!. :shock:

Don A and I represented Datsun Roadsters at the show today.

More Ferrari's, Maserati's, Porsches and Lamborghini's than you thought existed!
And only 2 of the definitely more exotic Datsun Roadsters. :mrgreen:
A few Nissan Skylines and old British cars and a Wonderful HUGE V12 Packard.
One of the Tesla Model X cars got a lot of attention. 7 seat SUV style. Gull wing doors. Impressive.
