work done
I thought I would list the stuff I have done to the car in the few years I have had it. I am not sure if I want to put a dollar total on this.
Some of the people who I have dealt with quite sucessfully
Fairlady Products
Ralleye Enterprises
Classic Datsun Motorsports
And of course E-Bay
7/20/05 Current Status: Not running (and its killing me)
Major oil leak at head gasket- lower timing cover area, and now dripping coolant from the water pump. At this point, it is parked until fall 05 when the motor is coming out for a freshening. Hone, rings, head work and hopefully not much else will be needed. If something major is found while the motor is out, who knows what will go back in there.
Not enough time now to get in to it, so it will have to wait.
