Took a quick drive with a BMW friend of mine down to Wilson, NY by Lake Ontario. Had a really nice day without rain, finally.

I did a 100+ mile trip with a bunch of Mustangs through some great Bay Area backroads last Wednesday.
Here is the post with some photos: viewtopic.php?p=347447#p347447
The Datsun hung right in there with the vintage and modern Mustangs.

Enjoying Alberta’s big blue sky. 75 km rip just outside of Edmonton. Spring driving has been slow to arrive this year. Cool and windy.

Took the Datsun down to the yacht club after going to and getting her to pass NY state inspection. A good feeling!

Babcock house and museum. Local cobblestone home. Longest drive, at one time, I've taken in the 11 years of owning the car. Only about 60 miles. Season is young hope to take some real long trips. Car is running very well :D

On a very smoky morning from wildfires 500 km away…our local Z car club had its first cars and coffee of the season. Fourteen cars from early roadsters, 240z, 280 z, 280zx, 300zx’s, 350z, 370z, G37XS, showed up on a warm morning to shoot the sh*# about all things cars. Looking forward to spring fun run in a few weeks .

Oh no, smoke already? Sure hoping for a less smokey summer than the past few years.

Worst wildfire some day of the weekend, air quality index over 10 (very bad). Eyes were stinging after I drove the roadster home. Had some rain Sunday that settled the smoke a bit... gonna be a smoky summer :(
