Family are all Ok, thankfully. We were spread all over town, took 4 hours to get us all together again. First Quake got the Z, (no insurance as was being restored and not registered), this one got the 12ie, gutted, not big damage, but gutting when you spend so much time, $$$ and energy. Just yesterday I had put the 12ie in the shed where the Z had been for the last one, So I could swap cams.
Whole garage is stuffed, cars outside in case there is another shake, because I'm convinced it will come down.
Hope all are safe, feel for those who have lost, and do mean Datsun's too, they don't make 'em any more, particularly not the one you own.
Thoughts and prayers
