Nope, pre-wagovan. It's the same as an '85, except the headlights are different (same body).

What year? Later, QD.

'87.
I've never tried to claim it as old-school until just then. I think it can be considered old-school by the rule that it's the same body style as an '85, correct?

But like I said, not too concerned about it; I have my Datsun to get my old-scool-on.

Yes it does since it is the same since 1984.

Your Datsun would be cool if it could get to the OS meets. Later, QD.

With the new tranny, intake/exhaust gasket, and two tires, I think that it would make it easy. My grandfather used to drive it back and fourth between here and Sarasota, back in the late 80's. Only has 47k miles.

Well, that all depends on how much room the engine bay has. I have a connection that has a fresh RB26 laying around at his shop since he pulled it out of his GTR to put a Tomei 2.8 in it.

If it wouldn't fit- just shove an SR20 in it and have fun.

So you're saying you'd cut it up?

I couldn't do that. Not to a car such as this. Later, QD.

if you consider tube-framing the front while retaining the body panels cut up then yeah. i'd give it the balls it needs.

Same here. Most I could do is a swap that doesn't require cutting, such as the miata swap.

That would be the alternate blaspheme, lolol. Cutting up old Japanese cars such as ours is such torture. Later, QD.
