Sometime in '70, not long after we got married. I was driving along 303 in Arlington (TX) and saw a used red 1600 at the Earl Hughes Datsun used lot. We were living in the Riverside area of Ft. Wort

Dennis beat me to bringing up the Daytona Coupe. For me it's pretty much a tossup between the 250 GTO and the Daytona, maybe with a slight edge to the Daytona. I've always wanted one but with only w

Are you using it to switch a relay? Although I haven't thought about how current that the coil + wire carries, but it can't be too much. They're fairly small. Interesting idea. Ron

Exactly my point, Mike, in case I failed to get that across. However rather than crude, I'd call them simple. Much of the continued attraction for me of the 510 and the roadster is based on that sim

Know the feeling. I've known Corky Bell and Joe Flores since not too long after we bought our 2000 in '70. Corky has a small shop in Arlington and did tune ups on the 2000, and later our first 510.

I want to add a bit to Tom's recommendation of Molex connectors. If you're going to use them, a good idea IMHO, get the correct crimping tool and the pin extractor tool and use the gold plated pins.
