Hi Mike,
Man, that car is BEAUTIFUL!
I'm going to have to neaten up my engine bay, I think.
That was just gorgeous!
And I have to say, the Datsun Sports roadsters look SO GOOD in black!
Mmmmmm....
On the other issue, though:
If the Porsche's came standard with 4 wheel discs, (which I think they
may have) then what's the problem?
Of course, if they didn't, then that all sucks!
Still, I did choose the Datsun because it's one of the most competitive cars
for historic racing/rallying in my price range!
I guess he did too. 8^)
Cheers,
Steve
