1966 Datsun 1600 Roadster custom
1966 Datsun Other Description
1966 Datsun Roadster award winning (Mt. Shasta, Canby, Solvang) custom with a Rebello built turbo/intercooled/fuel injected U20 and 5 speed transmission. Full frame off restoration in 2009 including any rust repairs and bare metal repaint. Just under 8k miles since restoration. Front suspension and steering linkage are new (mostly new Nissan, including ball joints) Mike Young sport springs. Rear springs were re-arched and new bushings. KYB GR2 shocks. Engine custom built by Rebello Racing specifically for the turbo application. Engine is managed by a SDS EM-4F with a programmable crank fire ignition. Turbo is a rebuilt stock SR20 T25 with a ceramic coated turbine housing and "down pipe". Intake is fabricated from SS tube with a KA24DE throttle body and exhaust manifold is fabricated from SS sch. 40 pipe. Custom made intercooler. In tank fuel pump. 5 speed was disassembled and inspected. 5th gear was removed and welded (common weak point). Pretty much every piece of chrome was replated and stainless trim polished. Full custom cloth interior and trunk area and full autometer gauge set with Innovate wide band. Wheels are rare machined and polished Shelby Viper in a 14x5.5 size. 4 wheel disc brakes are custom Wilwood in the front and 200sx in the rear with a functioning parking brake. Known issues include a oil leak at what I believe is the rear main seal (more than a few drops but no puddle), drivers side inside door handle not functional(may need new latch) no horn, some gauges not accurate (speedo off, temp gauge reads high as verified by IR thermometer, and fuel gauge only shows 3/4 when full. Pretty close when empty), occasional exhaust rattle (2" pipe is a tight fit in frame). Car includes both hard and soft tops. Hard top needs rear deck seal. Soft top is new but has a very small tear at one of the twist plates. Has trailer hitch and flat 4 wiring. $500 non refundable deposit at auction end via paypal with balance due via certified cashiers check or wire transfer. Car is sold as is with no warranty or guarantee either given or implied. Shipping is responsibility of buyer but I will assist with scheduling with the shipper or local pickup.
