My name is Richard Rudden and while I have seldom been active on the list
I've been on the list for around 10 years. I've met some of you at Datsun
shows in the SF Bay Area and Shasta.
The point of this is I am also the original owner of a 1969 roadster,
SRL311-12388. My wife purchased it from Mayfield Car Co. the Datsun dealer
in Thousand Oaks Ca. in of March 1970.
The car started life in the same beige gray as the cover car from the 1969
Datsun brochure. It currently has 124598 miles on it and is ready for its
second restoration, the first was frame on in 1988 and the color was changed
to Nissan 013 Regatta Red. At that time the 5 speed was rebuilt with new
synchronizers and bearings. The engine short block and head was rebuilt by a
shop in San Diego... All new chains, tensioners and guides were used. All
was great until 2002 when it dropped a valve seat from the #1 exhaust valve,
and I parked it with every intention of getting it back on the road again. I
won't bother you with all the details of why I never got around to working
on it again, but now as a result the loss of my job, my home and finally a
stroke this year I have to face the fact that I will not be able to get her
back on the road again. I want the car to go to someone who knows what they
are and will get it back to burning gas and crushing bugs. That is why I am
offering it on the list first.
