The 1968 Datsun 1600

Our friends Janelle and Rob were the previous owners of this little classic. It has seen over 160,000 miles, some of which was from Janelle's daily commute. After some cylinder head work, new brakes, etc., the Datsun spent a fun summer getting Dave to and from work.

With the exhaust noise level rising, some rust starting to come through the body, and Dave's available tinkering time about to be drastically reduced, Dave went in search of someone to restore the body and check out the engine.

The search was successful and the car is now off being restored. More pictures to come as the work progresses. As of today it is completely disassembled, with the body completely stripped.
