The first Datsun to be valued at $1 million will shortly be travelling from London to Cape Town to raise funds and awareness on behalf of under-privileged children in India and South Africa......

Reading up on their website sounds like the two guys doing it are a bit goofy, but I think it's a great idea for a great cause AND we couldn't have asked for a better car for the job!

Go Z Go!

Good find Dave!

According to their web site, they've only raised about $50,000 in pledges. Seems they have a ways to go - both literally and figuratively.

Hey $50,000 is still a lot of money for a Datsun. The car they chose is perfect for the cause. An under-privledged Datsun helping under-privledged children.

Wake me when they get there.

There's also a '73 Z and a 510 in the adventure. For a list of all entries, check:
