Hey Mike we were very subdued this year, didn't want to give our West Coaster's a bad impression. I mean after all there were no late nite Walmart runs, no dead cats, Joe didn't have any scotch, no bending Germans over rocks, no drag-drag racing and Nathan didn't bring his hookah. As matter of fact Nathan drove 4 1/2 hours for dinner Saturday nite and then drove home. Mark also had his daughter there and we did try to be as respectful as we possible could. Hell we didn't even have Joe's toupee to pass along to you as a souvenir. All in all we're glad you had a good time.

It was pretty tame, no breakdowns, only minor amounts of explosives, no complaints, no lawyers involved... We need to get together and plan earlier next year and be sure Nathan gets there.

Thanks for posting Mike!
This car looks familiar b/c of the louvered hood, is the owner on 311s? I'm curious about the intake routing

The SR20 belongs to Marc Boulay. Hope the spelling is correct. He is known on ebay as downhill bill.

Marc's car- really nice, a lot of touches I like. Always partial to well done louvers. (sp?)

Marc is a total car guy, just not Datsun roadsters. He is working on a Honda S600 (57 hp). He has a couple of Subaru 360s, a 68 mustangs fastback, 69 firebird convertible and a couple of roadsters.

I love those cars, I think I'd stick out of the roof worse than a Roadster though.
