Hey Bob,

Sorry cannot help out, but welcome.
Age is but a number. A few of us are creeping to that number as well as younger folk.
I would be keen to know about past Datsuns if you had any stories?

Cheers

Arh i see, so you're the culprit behind it. For the longest time Invercargil and the surrounding areas used to be the Datsun capital of NZ.
They were always popping up from around there and i never understood why. Sadly now tho, a survivor like i imagine you would be after are becoming a hard find. Still around. I might have to go for a drive to shout you a beer, try get some more history stories out of you.

BOB.
