Very cool to know the entire history of the car. Welcome! How about a little more of the story? Who bought it new, what milestones in its life, how many miles, any cool stories etc. etc. etc.??

A very nice looking roadster. Almost identical to a 70 2000 that I once owned, right down to the color and the stock wheels and hubcaps. Sold that one to my younger brother.
Ive seen normal. It aint pretty.

Almost as rare as a one Datsun family.

Originally purchased 1970 by John P. While he was in the army. Kept it for 10 years. His new brother-in-law Pat M.bought it from him around 1980. It has been in Greenville, SC since. I have the receipts and Pat had a restoration performed by a “very slow” shop over 2 years about 2005-7. Pat married my sister around that time. They would drive to NC mountains on weekends. It was kept garaged. In 1014, Pat was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. One year later he died. I, already, with an interest in vehicles purchased it from Pat’s children for $7k. They could not drive a manual. Esthetically nice but needed mechanical work. Starter, brakes, clutch, master and slave, tires, rebuilt SU’s, rebuilt head, new carpet, moved driver seat back an inch. Just turned 100k. I call it “Pat”after my brother-in-law.

I own a 1952 ford fire truck jacuzzi party machine. “Mable”
1941 Ford Super Delux convertible. “Dr. Pepper”
1993 300xz convertible. “Christina Z”
