[Roadsters] FW: Looking for someone who can work on a '67 1/2 Datsun 1600 Roadster in N.C. (Gordon Glasgow)

[Mark Coffin]

I have sent Mike a message directly, but if anyone else is looking  
for someone to help work on their roadster in Western NC, I'd be  
interested in helping out.  I'm semi-retired now, and have the time  
to work on these cars.  I am just about finished with a full frame- 
off restoration on my '68 2000 so I have a pretty intimate knowledge  
of these cars now, and have decades of experience as a race mechanic  
on my own SCCA VW Scirocco racecars.  I grew up with a wrench in my  
hand (wrenching on my dad's racecars as a kid), have a mechanical  
engineering degree and recently retired from the financial services  
industry.

I know how hard it is to find good mechanics these days...

Hello Gordon,

I am considering purchasing a '67 1/2 Datsun 1600 Roadster but am
having difficulty finding anyone around who could possibly service/
rebuild the vehicle for me. I live in Asheville, NC and haven't found
anyone on-line or in our local phone directory. I wanted to know if
you knew of anyone in the east that can work on this car.

Thanks for your help.

Mike
