Hi my name is Jay Ritchie, the car is a 1969 Datsun 2000, the color is black with purple pearl and black interior, pretty much kept it stock, some minor motor work. My wife Sharon will also attend. I live in the beautiful town of Vallejo.

You mean there are TWO roadsters in Vallejo?

I might be in for this. I'm pretty sure the roadster won't be driveable, but the Autobahn burner is good to go.

Keep me posted,
Wil
Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

Looks like a good turnout! To make the meet-up simple, lets meet at the local Starbucks (see address and directions below), just a few blocks from my garage.

This is still WEATHER PERMITTING, so check this again on Friday March 30 to make sure we don't cancel due to nasty weather. We can also status-check our number of cars then.

Date: March 31, 2012
Time: 2:00 pm
Place: Starbucks: 2005 Crow canyon Place, San Ramon, CA
(NOTE: THERE ARE TWO Starbucks on the same street, this is the one on the North side of Crow Canyon Rd. )
Directions: From I-680, take the Crow Canyon Rd Exit in San Ramon, turn East, then get in the LEFT lane and turn left onto Crow Canyon Place. The Starbucks is on your right in the shopping area where you see Max's Diner and PetCo.

2:00 pm: Meet at Starbucks, be prompt so we can move to...
2:10 pm: my garage in San Ramon...talk Datsuns, cars, etc. Test drives in Fisker Karma & Latigo?
2:30 pm: leave to go to Blackhawk Museum (10 minutes away)
2:45 pm - 3:45 pm: tour the cool cars at at the Blackhawk Museum
3:45 pm - 4:30 pm: take South Gate Rd up Mt. Diablo via Blackhawk Rd and Mt Diablo Scenic Blvd
4:30 pm: Top of the Mountain, photos, views, etc.
5:00 pm: Head back down the mountain before sunset, which is 5:30 pm

Then head on home... and if anyone wants to stay for an early dinner, we could end up at Pete's Brass Rail and Car Wash in downtown Danville. A horde of roadsters would be a welcome sight there. The alternate route down off the mountain will take you down North Gate Rd into Walnut Creek, if home is that direction.
