Hi everybody
My name is Nick Norton and I'm a new(and proud) 69 1600 owner.Yippee!!! I live in SoCal. I purchased my roadster in Mar 08 and have finished all paint and body work, stripped,cleaned,checked everything and I am starting to buy all the expensive bits and pieces. I'm looking forward to corresponding with everyone and hope to to be seeing everyone at fun runs by next August. I have restored Brit and Italian cars in the past and I must say that the Datsun is by far the easiest, most thought out and well engineered car I have ever worked on. Thanks in advance for all the help from you"experts".
PS This is a fantastic forum. Much better than the Healey or Fiat counterparts.

Hey Nick,

We are glad to have you on board. Hook up with those Socal folks to travel with a herd or roadsters. Here is a link to the SoCal Roadster Club http://higenki.com/socalroc/index.html

Welcome Nick. Post some pics for us sometime. It seems there are a lot of folks joining from the left.............er :wink: .......west coast. Y'all have lots of opportunities to get together out there. Here in Texas, roadster owners seem to be few and far between. At any rate, this is a great forum. Have a great day! 8)
