datsun Purist at heart

The feature that gives the Datsun 1200 Club its strength is its ability to cover a wide range of interests and approaches to the various "problems" that we encounter from time to time
The Vintage Sports Car Club we ain't, and while I'm a far older fart than you, I continue to be amazed at the knowledge and experience that some of the relatively young members have.
In the time I have been looking at this Site, I can't recall any probem where there has not been at least two or three workable solutions offered.
Briefly, the strength is the diversity and while 12A or 13B engined Dattos may make the purists cringe, there is still a lot to be said in favour of those who tackle the associated engineering problems and solve them with flair and finesse

Uh, do you realize you're starting a very similar thread to the rotary thread?

.."We don't need no stinking Rotary thread".

This is another example of us discussing things from a different angle.

But Mr Bighat is right. We need a "warm but frosty" Budwieser to relax from this excess of anti-wankel feelings. If you're ever down my way, I'll show you how drinking beer of any temperature can be fun. But in the meantime, just think about ride-on lawnmower races.. I suspect that we'd all like to do that! So putting lawnmower engines in 1200s is also cool.
