I'm jealous of the gas mileage
I'm getting 500 to a tank from a 2.7 liter inline six.

Mind you I beat the hell out of it and try and get the limited slip kicking in whenever possible.

Weeelllll....  ]:(
After the company I worked for went tits-up last week with no notice and my fastback just gave up the ghost, my winter beater is a freakin' flat-black 1977 Datsun 510 - this is NOT the cool 510, it's a god-damn eyesore!  ]:(  As long as it gets me school...
Yeah I can't wait to pick it up on Saturday! WOOO HOOO! I'll post some pics of the hotrod later  :lol:

So you have the rare optional self cleaning floorboards, a desireable feature, you are a lucky man rusty.


Daily ride is an og 71 deluxe bus but as soon as the salt flies it's a 84 dodge van with a hole in the muffler and a power packed slant six.

Depends. As I live on a remote Island not serviced by a car ferry I have to have 2 sets of vehicles, one on each side. Over here on the Rock I usually drive a beat up 84 TD Rabbit. On nice days it's a 68 T3 pan based tube frame buggy. When loads need to be moved it's a 1970 Chevrolet 9 foot stepside box 1 ton. On the \"other side\" it's an 83 Turbo Diesel Vanagon and a 67 Kombi.
