It appears to me that my emails have not been reaching the list - inasmuch as
I have not been receiving copies of emails I have sent.
Has anyone received anything (other than personally referenced) since about
November 25th or so.
You should have received at least 3.
If anyone would like more details (assuming they have been missed) please let
me know.
Anyhoo,I am back. After 8500+ miles - Eliza is dirty (but not too much so,
thank god she is silver and not black ) - don't know that i would have
attempted such a trip in anything contemporary british (foreign) ( speaking
as a brit ) - she held up fine - muffler problems , bit of misfiring at @3200
(occasionally) - but overall what an amazing tribute to japanese engineering.
Smooth, reasonably powerful (1600), good roadholding (panasports), 5 speed
really makes a difference and personally, not to be attempted wihout the
benefit of miata seats, that in my humble opinion is an area that Datsun could
have been better at.
So now I am in a quandry - when to clean her up - she needs to wear the patina
of having done what she has done, but equally I don't want her to be a DIRTY
car. I think I will leave her as she is (patinad (sp?) until the new year and
then do some SERIOUS detailing.
So, I have stuff to do, upgrade the lights ( they don't illuminate deers/elks
at 100 paces), rebuild the suspension (pulls to the left)
Anyhoo, I am as previously stated - HOME
