Nice car. But who is Lenny, and why is he not here posting himself? :-)

And where do you guys keep finding these clean unmolested cars. :shock:

Hi rfr I saw this car briefly posted on eBay a month and a half ago. The car never got over 3000. I contacted the guy via email and he said he would get back to me after his vacation. Well,his vacation was a month long but he called me and said his reserve was 3250, he has owned the car since 1974. It had 49000 miles omit when he bought it and now it has 90000, I have the bill of sale from camino datsun in Sunnyvale from aug 1970. Even the 1st owners name and address in Sunnyvale ca and the original warranty card from datsun and a detailed maintanence log from74 to present. The guy said he only putafew hundred miles a year in the last 10 years or so. The guy that sold it to me was a good ole boy in his 70's from Idaho. The car has period correct appliance wire wheels(you want em?) and dry rotted Michelin xzx tires. Car has original #666 datsun silver. Original faded thin paint. I intend to breath new life into a nice solid rust free unmolested roadster.
