Datsuns Are Just Fine

It's Nissans that are a POS! Your build sounds intriguing. Which half will be which? And you using 3 or 4 of the Japanese motors, or just the one LT-?

Sure, be curious to see what you're working on.

I'm guessing a 240Z with an LT1? >:)

It's a cut down short school bus.:grin2: I like it! I noticed the 6 lug nuts and can't wait to see your build. Also I like the wheels you chose. You my man are a hotrodder from the past.

Nice. Not exactly a rare museum collectible - hard to imagine the thought processes of folks ragging you for building it up.

Keep in mind I keep 2x really nice B-bodies and one beater 9c1 too.



Sometime nice thing die to make nicer things

Wore out three sawzalls and 20+ budget blades
And no more work can be done to the bare B-Body frame



Jumping into a major (insane) project like this
Faith in your vision and a ounce of hope are all ya get
Meanwhile hardcore industry professionals telling you..
"its never going to work"

This pictures is a hard earned and much needed
...first gymslips of the future..


What do you see?
