Ummmmmm...No We shall remain bondless...

Was at classic cars and aeroplanes sunday, they had a race demo with some old zeds...

 

And some more S30 racing pictures here:

 

 

Time for a little update....

First I got another cockatoo, the old one ( yuki ) got a little agressive and attacked me  this one is really friendly his name is Buddy, he's a Galah...

Second the Datsun.. it's currently in winter storage since last 2 weeks. I will start it occasionally, didn't have much time to drive it this summer...not much nice days  !

I hope to drive it more next summer, and bring it to some classic car events...  Lot's of polishing/cleaning work needs to be done on the car in spring !

Third: The Mustang I am still waiting for the engine to come back from the engine shop, had some problems with parts I had to send back to the US. I hope to get the engine and tranny in around Christmas.. or Januari. I allready re-painted the engine bay, and put an entire new steering assembly ( rebuild unit from the US ).

Good name for a friend. 

My Buddy...

 

Well time has moved fast, didn't have much time on my hands for the projects in between work, but got some things done. I hope the Mustang will make it's way back on the road this summer.  I picked up the Cleveland engine 6 weeks ago, so far it's almost back together. I hope to put it in the car in the next 4 weeks. Had to get hardened push rods + taller valve covers because of the roller rockers, so that took a while to get here from the states. Not sure what the horespower numbers will be ( have to dyno it to know ), but somewhere between 500/600 at the crank. Also ordered an Autometer RPM gauge, looks cool as ****, and functional to

The datto also got out of storage since last month. The brakes got stuck from sitting 6/7 months, but took care of that, also replaced breaker points. Also replaced the glass fuses ( FL headlight beam was bad, came out the be a fuse ) in the fuse box while @ it, heck they could be 30 years old.  Waiting for better weather then will give it a new coat of wax and polish the crome again.

Looking good Bart.
