OK, I was enjoying happy hour at the marina I used to work at on Friday. I couldn't help noticing the old Datsun in the shop.

at my old work they had a Nissan fork lift and it had a little 120Y engine in it... or it was at least an A series motor.
but thats even better being that it had Datsun badges....

Looks like the "Z Production" Competition model, with that rollcage! (And those are some SERIOUS nerf-bars on the front end!) I like the racy pinstriping down the sides.

Wonder how it would look with a Recaro seat and PanaSport wheels? :lol: We could take it to AirJockie to fit some sticky tires and free-flow exhaust!

Seems like all Jap companies start out making construction equipment. Then they saw the light. (is a Transformer considered construction equipment? my nefew has this and won't let me have it, it's just like my 83)

Yes we are :lol: :lol: :lol: Just when it felt like spring, my 83 gets snowed in, but not to worry, I went out to clear it off and not drive it some more. I don't mind the wetness, but salt is a no no. Sorry guys, but the garge is filled with 2 Z's already. I need more garages. :D

Those blokes Down Under are probably wondering what's happening to all our Brain Housing Assemblies up here! :lol: They've never even SEEN snow, so they don't undrstnd the sad things that happen to the human mind when you can't get out of the house for weeks at a time! :lol:

ANYWAY ~ two good things are just around the corner; Remember to set your clocks ahead an hour this weekend (which will cut an hour out of winter and make Springtime at least a LITTLE closer), and

WE HAVE OUR FIRST MONTHLY MEETING NEXT WEDNESDAY! I don't expect to actually see many Z cars (except Keith's, who could push his car to the meeting if he needed to), but it will be a GREAT break just to see you guys again and talk some carZ. :wink:
