I like this paint scheme, I can help it :lol:

Seriously, lots of sitting down and inventory what we have. Listing and prioritizing what needs to be bought, done blah blah.

This is fun right? :mrgreen:

Anybody want a real underdog car for Lemons/Chump?

1984 Datsun/Nissan 200SX hatchback. NAPSZ (2 plug per cylinder) 2.0 L engine. Automatic Transmission. Solid rear axle. Disc front, drum rear brakes. Hatchback. CHEAP

Original owners. Already has an SCCA San Francisco Region sticker on a window. :lol:

Hey man, I'm just tying to help! You should always take advice from the 'been there, done that' crowd in my experience.

Hey, its a rwd Datsun/Nissan. There should be parts available in some junkyard somewhere to convert it cheaply to a manual trans . . . :lol:

Rewiring the car? Damn, that's brave. We tore apart a couple of harnesses on Simon to reduce complexity and chased problems for days afterwards.

Good luck! And if you run into any problems, just remember, I told you so!!!! :lol:
