Ahhh! I just saw this. My brothers and I have 67.5 1600s. I have a primer gray 1600. Jon's is blue with "Datsun" on the doors. We live in GV. We also have a brother down in Penn Valley with one. Let me know if you want to meet up for a beer or a coffee and talk roadsters!
There are a handful of other 311s in the area. One of the owners of Lefty's has a yellow one. He lives up off of 20.
There is a guy named Michael in town that is working on a custom roadster with a small v8 in it.
I also spotted this tall window in town the other day in front of Ray's (well, what used to be Ray's automotive) I can't remember the name of the place at the moment. They ended up with a lot of Harry Stewarts old Datsuns...
There is a also a pretty nice one down (I think) in the LWW area, but I don't have too much info on it. It has subtle flames on the hood. I think it was a dark metallic blue. It was a really nice car. There also used to be a tall window up in Cascade Shores, but it had been sitting for awhile! Who knows if it's still up there.
And finally, there was a guy that came by my shop (Grass Valley Printers) a couple months ago with a tall window to see my brother! Was that you? I went home and came back with my roadster, but you were gone and Jon didn't take a picture!!!

383 stroker! It was a bit of a basket case when he got it. I think he's been making good headway tho. Last I heard he was having cooling issues. I just emailed him to see about getting together!
Jonelaw - let me know if you want to meet up one of these days? It's prime roadster weather! my # is 263-5684

Ahh, It looked like a nice car! I like the color. Yeah, I'll try to cruise by. I've been there a few times over the years, they usually have some really nice cars that show up there...
