Hello everyone. Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jon. My wife and I just purchased a 66' Roadster from Shedd, OR and drive her home over the weekend. This is our first car together. Most of the other projects have just been my own but I so excited to have my wife Kim along for this ride. This is our first Roadster but I've wanted one since the early 2000's when I owned 4 300zx's(3 TT and 1 NA). I currently own a 93 RX7 and 01 S2000 which I track. Looking forward to being a part of this community and learning more about these great cars and learning tips on restoring it.

Welcome, I think I saw your post on FB or somewhere else regarding your drive down. I take it you had no problems? Nice car by the way.

Likewise, saw your Oregon-California adventure on FB. Welcome to the best source of roadster info, bar none. We'll have to join Alvin, Rob and all the others on the Santa Cruz mountain runs come Spring weather! That's a sharp SPL!

Yes, the interior is red. It's a little rough but nothing that can't be fixed. Looking forward to some drives with the local guys.

ps, like John mentioned above, mark your calendar for April 24-25 and attend the Solvang Datsun Roadster Show. It's a must do.
