[Roadsters] 67 roadster 2000/Solex/ Air Filter element needed

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

Marty,

Rallye has Nissan filters for the 2000 Solex at about $96.  I didn't find 
them on Dean's "datsunparts" website, but it's worth checking yourself.  (If 
he actually has them, he'll point out my error to me.)  You can also try the 
other suppliers listed on 311s.org.  I've seen them in onesy-twosys on eBay 
for less.  An eBay seller who has a "store" called "Vintage Imports" based 
in Franklin, Ohio has sometimes offered them on eBay.  I stay away from that 
supplier because I've seen too many of his listings for roadster parts which 
were inaccurate, but the 2000 Solex air filters, an aftermarket item, 
appeared to be correct.  (I don't  even read his listings anymore, even if 
it's for a part in which I'm interested.)
