  • My poor Datsun. She was once so beautiful and proud. Now she is old and neglected and its all my fault. The car has literally been towed behind me for the last 10 years as I have moved 5 or 6 times in that period. Each tiem the car get put on a trailer and subjected to weathering and being un appreciated.
    Yesterday was fathers day. This car once belonged to my lifetime buddy's dad before me. Yesterday in a most perfect ironic stroke of calendar luck, my that and buddy brought the car back to life.
    We got new tires mounted on the rear allowing the car to actually be driven. We drained all of the fuel out of the tank and filled it back up with 3 gallons of fresh stuff. We did an oil change and gave everything a quick once over and then hooked a battery to it.
    This is day 1 of bringing this incredible car back to life.

    Why does than Nissan (Datsun) have a V8 engine in it?
    That's 💯 total and utter sacrilege, replacing the beautiful and totally original seventies 2.4 litre straight six engine!!!

    Anything that can create a grin that BIG, that can been seen thru a windscreen that dirty, you know is something special.
    Keep it up Shaun. She deserves it and so do you.
    P.S Those wheels look really cool

    Wow. In 1980 I jumped into my mate's 240z and I pulled 3 Gs as it he hit 60 mph in 4 seconds ... in second gear.
    They were the days. 🎉🎉🎉

      More like 60mph to 0mph in 4 seconds!

      Take a closer look at the engine 😉 To me it looks like a chevy small block...

      ​@heikoscheuermann, you are correct it kinda does. More investigation is required haha. Either way it's a nice car.
