Datsuns out of storage

My poor Datsuns have been abit neglected lately so I thought I would get them out of storage for the summer time,
Iv just recently put the motor back in my 1200, it had a blown head gasket and I decided to rebuild and try another cam grind.
The 1600 is due a rebuild soon. Has low compression on cylinder 3 but that will get some attention over the winter.
Iv recently brought another 1600 so my collection is slowly increasing

When is the Rakia cruise coming up? I'm not on here often so miss all the good meets.
Yes Bart I was fortunate to buy MADDAT, Nick has put in the hard yards to a very high standard and I'm lucky enough just to get in a turn a key. At least the cars stayed in chch :))

It's in the meets forum. February some time. (I really should know when I guess lol)

A mate of mine who is over seas was extremely keen to buy that car too. It's lucky for you you pulled the trigger when you did!
