How about a pic with Half Dome in the background? You might make the Datsun Roadster calendar......... :)

I'm taking it to mariposa tomorrow to check out a Datsun yard sale, if it does good on that trip, Yosemite not to far from there.
I've had the roadster for about 2 1/2 months and I have been testing out its reliability. So far it's proven to be reliable.. A Yosemite trip is next. I love sequoia national park, I can't wait to get some pics next to the giant sequoias! The roadster will look so tiny! Hehe.. I hike every year there.

What I like a lot is comodary & willingness to help in the roadster community.. I was in a nova club for years in Fresno/Clovis area. It was kinda unorganized & no one wanted to help out with meetings or just getting together for a cruise somewhere. You even have members hating on each other instead of helping each other.
With the Datsun, even though there is no one around me that I ran into yet to cruise around with, the people I've met online & Mike Young who own Datsun sports who I went up to visit to pic up some much needed parts have been great!
If I have a problem member are willing to share their knowledge and help me solve some of the issues I've been dealing with..
I am glad to be a part of this roadster community & appreciate all the help.

A good spare tire, a few tools, a couple extra lug nuts, oil, water, a belt, points, tape,,etc.
Eventually the contents of the spares bag will diminish as the miles rack up.
Ive been packing around a small tool box for 9,000 miles, but forgot to bring it the last few drives,,,
