Those are cool. I'd like to find a Datsun 510 2 door. I had a couple of those as winter cars, but I always like the styling of them. A lot were modified with bigger engines or turbos. I always thought of them as a sort of Japanese Nova.

Great looking little sports car Steve! I've got quite alot of "stick" time in Datsuns. Worked at a dealership in the summers. They made me do cross-border deliveries of Z cars to other dealerships and forced me to do it over the weekends.

Very nimble little beasts - very smooth in-line sixes backed up by a 5 speed.

The 2000's are four cylinder 2 litre screamers. The redline is 7K and rev well beyond effortlessly. Its going to be interesting fitting in this thing as it's been 30 years since I last drove one. The car is shipping from CA and will arrive this weekend.

-----Steve,,,While I have to say that you have gone back over to the dark side, I kind of dont mind your new little roadster. Sort of what a true "sports car" should be. Light and nimble! ........Bill S

There is no dark side for me. I've admired many of the cars form the Vintage Japanese Car site. I am also into 1st generation Audi quattro cars. Fun stuff!
