Some of you may remember my previous 82 Diesel Maxima sedan... I have regretted selling it for years, and have been searching for a replacement off and on... I finally came across a deisel 910 wagon on craigslist about 5 hours away from me, I called the owner, sent him a deposit via paypal this past Friday, and drove up to pick it up Saturday morning. The body has some rust issues here and there, but it is mechanically sound and I love it!
So it gets interesting... It's got some kind of SVO conversion setup on it? It has an auxillary 12 gallon tank in the trunk for the veggie oil, and a switch on the console to switch between the diesel tank and the veggie oil tank... The PO has been driving it like this for the past year and a half, 80 miles a day round trip to work. To "make it worth my while" for coming all the way from Medford to buy it, the guy gave me about 70 gallons of ready to run veggie oil as a bonus. So far I've put 80 miles on the car, since yesterday, about 60 of which were on the veg. oil... It's pretty bad ass...
I may put some 280z/zx wheels on it to spiff it up a bit, and contemplating throwing a turbo on it as I have been saving a 280zxt exh. manifold for several years waiting for that one special car... The car is an auto... I wouldn't mind converting it to a stick at some point, but that may not be in the cards... Only time will tell as I continue to drive it.
