Hello from the Bay Area, California. I've owned around 10 510's before. My Wife and I decided to give the convertible datsun a whirl. We just picked up this 1970 1600 this weekend. Looking to this forum to help with questions i might have and to go for fun runs.

First off-welcome to our little slice of the cyber world. We are glad you found us. Please post plenty of pictures of your pride and joy. We like pictures. There is an album on the forum (link at the top) and one external to the forum located at http://www.311s.org/Coppermine/index.php where you can put your pictures and then link them within your post. If you get stuck just ask for help. We are a pretty friendly group here and someone will help you out. We have a registry where you can add your ride or rides that is located at http://www.311s.org/registry.html Please add your car or cars there with pictures as well.
If you have a picture you want added as an avatar and cannot figure out how to do it-send me the picture in an email to 67datroad@311s.org and I will get it posted for you. No dumb questions here and someone will usually answer you or point you to the answer. We have a tech wiki section that has tons of information in it regarding all things roadster related-direct link is http://www.311s.org/pmwiki-311/pmwiki.php If you would like to add content to the wiki send one of the moderators and email and we will make it happen. Also as a shameless plug for Scott Scheeler's "The Datsun Roadster" books is a must have. More information available on Scott's website http://thedatsunroadsterbook.com/ You can easily find other roadster owners in you area here as well. Please put your location in your profile so we know where you are. Again, welcome and enjoy.
