So after reading the forum for awhile, I see that everyone gets a stiffy everytime someone news posts pics of their ride.
Well.. I live in the lovely part of Ontario, Canada where they put down imported car eating materials during the winter. AKA SALT.. so to find a vehicle pre 1986 that is still one piece is a miracle... well, here is what I am looking at for a fun little project:
1975 Datsun 620
1975 Datsun 620 project, all it needs is a carb to get it runnng, last summer the engine was rebuilt from the ground up, new bearings, piston rings, etc. and the transmission is in good shape.
Its in a perfectly good rough shape to be ratted out.. flat black etc...
I just need to learn more about this engine or other viable options.
