Thought I had to post this as it saddened me to see a car with some potential sitting on rims at the wreaker being dismembered.

Was out there looking for parts for an inlaws ford aspire. While walking through the Nissan/Datsun section I stumbled across a classic mostly disassembled. The car had not been wreaked as far as I could see. No impact damage noticable what so ever. The hood was across the isle leaning against another car In oxidized but perfect shape,no rust noticable anywhere on it. Still had the Datsun lettering on it. The skeleton still had the wheels and tires on it. The doors where laying on the ground to either side of it. The trunk lid was missing. Engine was gone but trans still in place. Fenders were gone. Most of the interior components still in tact. The car had such potential and someone sent it to the wreaker not knowing a 1970 roadster had a real enthusiat following.

Oh yea and there were a handful of rust free 240SX's out there with lots of fresh parts.

One man's trash is another man's treasure, it's all relative.
