I don't think this is real.. this story has been around for several years. On top of that, I don't think it's true. Oh yeah, and they identified the guy through bits of fingernail they found embedded in the steering wheel..... Now if Ford Excursion owners would all start strapping Jato's to their big bohemoths, we would have a much less crowded road system.... the same goes for riceboys (keep a couple though, they always provide a good laugh around lunch time.) Sean Funk With a 510 that rolls, drives, and spills gas out the filler tube! Complete with a fully functional braking system! 1 x 1972 Datsun 510 (Brakes, custom gas runs on the side, generically (is that a word?) rigged throttle linkage) 1 x 1992 Chevy Pimpmobile (It always comes back to the fact that it has a stereo, so it can't go...) Stay cheap, stay reliable, stay friendly, stay Datsun. True, true. ---------- This message comes to you from the Datsun 510 mailing list.
