Hello everyone! I was directed here by the member Alvin recently in my search for a Datsun roaster. I'm located in Oakland, CA, love cars and try to get to one of the nearby race tracks at least once a month with my cars.
Growing up my grandmother had a 1967.5 1600 that us kids always called "the mini car". I have many fond memories of rides in that thing. My brother is now in possession of that car where it's been sitting in his garage for years till he finds the time to restore it. I've finally decided that since he doesn't want to give it up to me, I'm going to have to go find my own if I ever want to own one of these awesome cars! Looks like this is a pretty awesome and active community and I'm looking forward to being a part of it!

Welcome Anthony.
Youll find, once you have a roadster to drive,that people will approach with similar stories. Hard to goto the gasstationwithout someone wanting to talk about the car.

Re: Greetings from Oakland, CA
Hi Anthony I too just joined this forum not too long ago and I have 2 Roadsters already. You will quickly see how addicting these cars are. Also this is the best forum to be on for everything Roadster. These members experience and true helpfulness is practically impossible to find these days. We are all here to help you along the way!anthonymckay wrote: Tue Apr 03, 2018 7:05 pm Hello everyone! I was directed here by the member Alvin recently in my search for a Datsun roaster.
