Subject: Nash/Datsun, shameless plugs
reading Richard Ryans' write up reminded me that there has been a Nash
Metropolitan with a Datsun engine in it for sale in the local ad paper, just
in case someone wants to reign in his teenagers' need for speed. Whaddya
bet an A-15 swap or something like that.

Hey, where is local? That could be my old Metropolitan!! I sold one to a
local shop that mostly worked with Aston Martins and their ilk. He bought it
for someone who wanted one for his wife but it had to have a few changes:
reliable, automatic. Well, that ruled out the original british running gear,
and he swapped in a datsun engine and transmission.
When it was done he had over $15K in it and it was absolutely gorgeous. The
paint looked so deep you wee afraid to stand too close to it.
