Wow! Nice car. And all it needed was a wax job, right? <g>
Yeah, that's the problem - like the low windcreen look, but plan on driving
it regularly. Another reason to try to get a ride in both.
Double-wow! I'm looking at the cars on Mike's website. If the pics are any
indication of Mike's work, I'm almost afraid to ask about the prices.
Thanks for the mail. Uh-oh, I think I'm feeling that urge to do something
stupid, hehehehe.

For 5K, you can still find a nice 68-70 2000, but you can get a real nice
67.5 and earlier 1600 for the same price. You should drive both. Most like
the low windscreen looks. If you plan to drive it a lot, the later car is
better. I'm bias, I like the later cars and like the 1600 cause parts are
cheap and available. What ever you do, get the most complete car you can
find. My car needed some tlc but it was complete. Other than California, I
think the North West has the largest Roadster community. If you want a real
nice car, call Mike Young at Datsun Sport in NorCal has several that ready
to rock.
Good luck, I'll keep my ear to the ground for you.
