Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

My buddy Chuck beat me to this 67 1/2 1600 located here in Las Vegas. It has had what appears to be a skim coat of bondo put on it and is starting to spider crack. The handles were "shaved" and the antenna was frenched. The car has been in storage for 10 years or so and when Chuck got it to his place he got it to start and run using a gas can as a make shift fuel tank! I can't believe it started after all this time. He was considering parting it out but I think I have him convinced to save it and restore it for his wife. I will let him add to the story including the ridiculously low price he paid for it. Here are some pictures as Chuck can't compress them to post them.

This will be an interesting project. Any close-ups of the frenching and shaving work? just curious.

Good thing Chuck has friend that knows how to paint a roadster eh.

Wow, what a score. Some tires, and drive the hell outta that thing until the bondo starts flying off.

Ya, its my new toy. The wife wants me to have it repainted red and install tan interior for her to drive. I just wanted it for some spare parts. Eather way its a numbers matching car for $450.00 delivered to my shop.
Now i have to do some thing with it??
FYI.
Im gonna drive my 66 to Williams, Arizona. for the meeting in October.
