Guest Magnum Rockwilder Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Looks like a Datsun Miatabird SRT-4 to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Sorry Alex but I love that! Got a link to where I can learn more about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxilary Posted November 15, 2004 Author Share Posted November 15, 2004 nope, sorry. if i find more info, i'll send it your way. the work is very well done, but the edgy lines of the roadster mixed with smooth lines of hte miata don't flow well, and it looks longer than it should be, you know?

Sven Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 You know, I think the only thing truly wrong looking is the windshield. Other than that it's just a stretch Bluebird. It's workable. Needs chrome bumpers, though. I guess I have a soft spot for the 1600/2000. Its how I ended up getting a Z. I heard stories growing up about my mom's 2000. -Yeah, my mom owned a Bob Sharp race prepped Datsun 2000... there was no hope for me! She used to tell me stories about dusting musclecars in Chicago in '70/71. She says she always pulled away on the top-end (what other car had a close ratio 5 speed in 1970?). Things like that don't happen anymore. You just don't see road racing cars going "back to the streets". I've read a similar story about one of the BRE 510's. Someday I'll buy one to fix up for her. I'll have to scan some pics. I still have the BSR "Racing Modifications" manual too. I'd Ebay it, but it has too much sentimental value. -Wow, holy thread hijack, sorry Aux!

Pop N Wood Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I was going to say, that car looks extremely well done. But also have to agree the lines don't mix well. And the color....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akeizm Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Its got a pug nose!!! But I dont like it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bastaad525 Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 except for the tail lights, I hardly see how that qualifies as anything close to a Datsun roadster replica. On it's own merits it's an interesting looking car, as an imitation I hate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest unknownroadster Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 How can they do such a thing???!!! And I bet later it'll be on E-Bay for $40,000 obo....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickedWild Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I think it would look better if they turned it around. Looks like it's going the wrong way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Take off the hood scoop and paint it red!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest unknownroadster Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Maybe throw some Panasports on there, that might help a bit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
