<div style="color:black;font:10pt arial">" WHEELER DEALERS" did a half hour show on the Datsun Roadster. Season 16 Episode 12.
<div>There are 2 British guys, one a pretty fair restoration mechanic. The other is the shows clown like a "chumley" that finds and buys the cars and of coarse sells them at a profit.</div>
<div>The car was a 69 roadster. First you don't know what it really is because it has a 1600 grill, U20 engine and NO side markers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The mechanic does a really great job doing an idler arm re bush and front end rebuild. Tig welded the header and front pipe. A REALLY great part on fitting VOLVO brakes to the front with prices. Also rebork on the brake peddle arm for people with BIG FEET. Really informative.</div>
<div>The car had no top frame. Chumley found one and the upholstery shop did a great job showing a frame refinish with a heat gun. That alone made the show worth while for me. I learned something. They redid the seats in correct material.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> The bad parts. Car had J C Whitney mirrors. REALLY CRAPPY red side trim. A front bumper made of chrome twigs from a lawn shed. In correct lights and grill.</div>
<div> Claimed to sell the car for $14000.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>They do some great cars though. One on the Volvo Amazon was pretty good.</div>
