New Zealand Datsun Club

This was one of those spur of the moment things as ive always loved HA vivas since dad had a 12a rotary powered race car ages ago (will upload pics of that too) this looks pretty similar and i couldnt help get in on this thing - it just reminded me too much of Olliver (top gear fame) and the fact its just a cool looking wagon.

Plans are just to keep it for now - heaps of other projects on the go - i dont no weather or not to rat it up or go original - ive put a couple of pics of wat it should look like down the bottom - should be a sweet little wagon when i get it back on the road. Currently trying to find out all the info on it and specs - apparently is only 40hp and 700kg

Ill put more info and photos up after i take some pics over the week as it only just got here today.

I borrowed a couple of pics from the opel site - hope you guys dont mind and thanks.

This is what it should look like

Heres a couple of pics from home on the weekend - havent done anything yet.

Funny story - got an email from the original owner today saying that when the truckie drove it out the drive the mufler fell off in the driveway.

She asked if i wanted it sent buy i replied "if it rusted off - probably not work sticking back on. (explains the exhaust hanging down)





Also....


Heres dads viva - pretty modifies for the early ninety's - ive gotta get more info on this thing but i know it was 12a and had some kind of double shock setup in the back and still transverse leaf in front.

wow, that is cool i like it just the way it is, shows some history etc, if you can get it back on the road as is then just use it.
great nostalga photos of your dad too.
