Mentioning the synchro was iffy when you owned the car is bad, but re-stamping a block makes you an expert restorer? How odd.
Really sad display for roadster owners. The seller is not helping by flying off the handle post auction!

Yeah, how dare anybody call out the Saintly One, the final authority on all things Roadster. The worship of this guy is nauseating, especially after the side of him that I've seen.

Seemed to not have much action, wonder why? Great car.

Same feeling here, wonderful SR20-swapped roadster.
This is the "50/50" scenario of BaT I guess. I can only posture here....maybe it was too much of "sleeper" with no badging or "Datsun" lettering. There are so many details that might have been overlooked by viewers or not stressed enough: it comes with a canvas soft-top and even has a fully functioning parking brake on the RX-7 rear end, total suspension and frame-off restoration, etc. Maybe it needed some daylight photos? I'm struggling.

Mike (RCMike)'s comment was what I would express verbatim...just get in and Enjoy The Ride!

I'd worry the state inspector wants to inspect and deems it / parts are possibly stolen may be crushed
