37 Phaeton

Post by Bob2 »

Check out my new ride. Its a 1937 Datsun Type 15 Phaeton. Not near as quick as a 67 roadster, but puts just as big of a grin when driving it.

Ok. I am just slow at posting. It is harder to size pix on the iMac than on my pc from work.

Here is some pictures of the front seat area and dash, motor, under car, and front end. Notice the U-joint. Maybe hard to replace, but should be an easy one to do.

The car runs very good. I put gas in it and it fired right up. No water pump either!!

And darn it. all my pix are right side up, but show two of them rotated when posting. I can't figure out how that is happening. So turn your head sideways!

Really cool ride, I'm sure that gets smiles, but also puzzled looks from car buffs.

Can I borrow it? 8)

The only acceptable headwear would be a fedora.

Very nice rare find!
