Re: [Roadsters] Datsun-roadsters Digest, Vol 3, Issue 304

Last summer I decided to drive rather than fly from SC to TX when I had a three 
week business trip. I take the roadster everywhere I can and enjoy driving it 
on trips.  A couple of years earlier I did the coast to coast trip when I 
purchased it but that was late winter, early spring so hot temps did not come 
into play.  The drive to TX was in the middle of the summer with record 
breaking highs. It was so hot I had to run the heater every once in a while to 
keep the engine temp. down.  Needless to say the two day trip resulted in about 
10 lbs. of weight loss from sitting in the "sauna".  When I checked into the 
hotel they thought I was a mime I was completely white covered with sun screen.
