I feel the need the need for speed! So lucky to be able to work on the coolest helmets ! I didn’t know what I was getting until I opened the box, Congrats .j.groenkeracing

The Datsun was a car that I wanted since high-school, I said at the time, one day if I had the money and time, I would build one. Some 40+ years later, I bought this roller from a friend that was leaving the country, the car was in boxes. It stayed in the corner of my warehouse for years. Then came Covid, locked down with free time, I spent the time looking for manuals, looked at its design flaws, put a plan in place to remove those flaws and update its electrical, suspension, and drivetrain, while still maintaining its true heritage and analog feel. I kept as much of the original Datsun parts as I could, ( like down to the OEM hose clamps) it would have been easier and cheaper to source current tuner aftermarket parts. But that’s not what i wanted, I wanted that car that my friend let me drive when I was in high school. I tried different wheels, brakes, suspension even re-cored the radiator to keep it original, but at the end after many changes, this is the end result of 5 years of work. The time spent working on this car allowed me to learn to do things and develop new skills. I didn’t do it alone, I had help from close friends that were dear to me. May they rest in peace. I’m forever grateful! Here are just some of the goodies in the car. Rocket bunny kit, Love20bee wantanabe custom 3 pc wheels, Moton custom coilover suspension, Techno toytunning, Nismo L*D, Rebello racing engine 3.0 Lt, stroker, Links ECU, Jenvey ITB, custom wiring harnesses, custom fuel system & fuel lines by Ultimate Racing, custom leather interior scanned, Alcantara roof liner, dashboard and console, blue tooth car play. hope you like the photos. Enjoy 😊!
