yes 105mph/170kmh And than I stopped hitting the gaspedal looking for police cars....you never know....pebbles wrote:105 mph in a 67 Datsun? Scream all you want to,,, you have earned it!!!
Absolutly beautiful! I love that sound!!
Are the booster assist brakes good? Better?
The boost assist is fine but because all brakes are new it is not feeling yet how it should be...
Also the steering is a bit vague/loose and the differential is singing along...
Yesterday went on the highway again with 130kmh/80mph steady for 45 minutes or so, also used the throttle knob, and ofcourse open top, a bit music on and it felt awesome, really like the smoothness of the engine.

Only a few things after 906km;
leaking rear brake cylinder (will solve today)
leaking radiator hoses (clamps)
singing differential (winter project)
belt tension
will check some bolts and nuts.
The low springs are a bit to low for bumpy roads, maybe install other ones in the future.
The car is a great joy to drive with. Really enjoying it.

Maybe you have to drive slower on bumpy roads

Contrary to other comments, I like the way that the tires fill out the wheel well.

Next winter we will see for another spring, in future another tire (don't like French under my Japanese car).
But maybe I have to drive a few summers more because the differential and steering stands a bit higher on the wishlist

I drive with the Michelin too but I like them they are a little softer, how does it works with the fuel pump under the tank ant the ramps.
