Back after another decade, 2nd gen Datsun nut.
Almost ten years ago I was on here, my dad had a 68 2000, Solex appointed autocross car. I never did get the car to Alaska, and it ended up sold in the Oregon city OR area. I sure hope it got restored, and it would be very very cool if someone here knew something about where the car might have ended up.
I have since returned to the Pacific northwest, and started autocrossing. I was looking for a roadster shell to build a modified race car and found one. A former chump car winner named Bob (the car is Bob) retired after a wreck in 2013. It was to be rebuilt for thunderhill but never was finished.
I intend to put it on track again, and will be glad to be back in a Datsun again. Oh, and I might need a rh fender for a 67.

Well, there isn't much to see yet, I've got allot of assembly to do. All the sheetmetal is around somewhere. I'll start a build thread when it starts coming together.
