Couple datsuns

Post by crustywhip »

These are a few years old now and have been sitting on my old computer so thought Id share. The 120y had just had a bare metal resto and they were putting it back together. Last time I was there the collection included more 160/40 js plus a few 180b wagons, the gold blue bird gt and a 180b coupe plus more. much much more.

Couple 160js and a 140j plus the trusty old er's

That's the first time I've seen one of those JDM 610 grills on a 180b outside of japan (yellow car with black roof). Cool collection.

I talk to him from time to time about our datsuns.
He usually rings me once a year and has sent me a few photos which he told me i couldn't share. He has some amazing cars his J cars are restored so well id put money on it they would rival any other J cars in this country for stock restored condition.

I agree but I thought a couple pics would be o.k. and is only half of what they have. Im heading back up soon to say my hellos and get a wheel going
