DATY12 wrote:Hi I'm Kevin, I'm a 32 year old Dato nut who has recently moved to Timaru. I have been into Datsuns since I brought my 1st car at 16. It was a smurf blue 120y Sunny which I used to learn about Datsuns enough to know I wanted to own more. I love the chrome on the old cars and can spot round head lighted cars a mile away!
Over the years I have owned 4 Sunnys, a 1200 sedan,1200 roadstar ute and a C20 Van along with an R32 Skyline and many other non Datsuns which I wont name lol. The last 2 Datsuns I still own, I have owned the ute for almost 10 years and spent 2 years completely stripping and restoring it. I have replaced the old 12 hundy with a fresh recond A15 that my Dad and I built with some head work,a mild cam, lightened flywheel and 5 speed gearbox so it definatly goes alot better now!
I use the Van as my daily driver to drive 25 min each way to and from work as the ute is more of a toy these days but I still liked the idea of cruising A15 stylz every day!

I am keen to meet any other members in the Timaru area that are keen on cruises or part swaps etc.
I also have access to brand new Thai parts and enjoy trading as a bit of a hobby. I can get 1200 bonnets, guards, grills Ute tail lights and tail gates, indicators and the odd sunny parts also. I find them great as they are straight bolt on parts and freshen up your ride better than any old rusted or panel beaten items. I have helped alot of people with these parts over the years and like to help out how ever I can. I have a shed full of spares and I'm always on trademe either buying or selling parts.

I hope to catch up and have a few yarns with some of you in the future or join in on any events in the area or close by.

Keepin it real old school stylz!
Kevin
Are you kev12 from Trade Me?

hey im luke.

new to the site, i always wanted a datsun 1600 sss sedan. bluebired 2 door was the dream, but reality hit..;...... brutally .... moment i had the coin had to have a datsun, 1200 coupe was in the coin range, simply a need rather than a want.

my grandad was very much a datsun man and owned several very exceptionaly nice examples, mainly sss 510 versions etc. but since im not an aircraft engineer i cant afford such luxurious cars.

purchased 1200 coupe and now very much on the hunt for parts as per the bank acc allows. wanting a nice datsun, as they all are regardless.......

datsun for as long as the bank acc permits... and then when the banks accounts permit... and then... let us not dream of such a horrific time

Hello everybody,
I'm coming from France, I've 33 years old.

I need some information to work on an Ddatsun E10 of a friend. In France we don't have any informations concerning this car 'cause this model was the first imported by Datsun.

I hope i will find what I'm searching :burnout:

Evening ladies and gentlemen,

Long time piner, 2nd time owner (I don't think Datsun innernet forums existed when I first owned a Datsun some 14 years ago) and I'll be soon acquring another example of the marque.

Look forward to asking heaps of stupid questions, and hopefully will make it to a few events.

Cheerio,


Richy
