Well I have finally came to the darkside and joined the datsun owners brigade after owning many slightly newer nissans.

I picked up this 1200 coupe today for free! It runs but has no brake pressure (or fluid) so I trailered it home.

It comes standard with tacho, extra glove compartment, manual transmission and plenty of rust.

I am yet to get underneath it to find the extent of the rust but if all goes well the plan is a A12 injected turbo using assorted parts I have lying around and running megasquirt.
