First car

I am searching and have been searching for a car just like my very first car.. It is a 1974 Datsun 710..Wish I had never gotten rid of it but to late now.. I know it will be next to impossible as they were not popular cars but I want one.. hopefully some of the members we have in western canada would help in my search.. here is a pic of mine to help with what im lookin for.

P:S YES THE CAR IS FASTER THAN STAMPEDES..KIDDING JASON

holy that thing is "unique"

there's a member on here that went to the LNLC race that is part of the Z club, i'm assuming he meant z's and zx's as in the Datsuns. Perhaps he has some contacts through that club that he could help you with. I REALLY have to go to bed, but if he hasn't responded by tomarrow night, i'll find the club and links for you if i have time.

we had a late 70's ( i believe) 240 or 280 ZX and loved it. wasn't overly powerful but was fun. my uncle had a mid early or mid 80's??? 300ZX 5 spd, t top, something like 180 HP was fun to drive and sounded pretty sweet, wish i had bought it off him now.

any help would be great. and as for power this car was very fast I know i can tell you the 1/4 mile speed but i have no proof as it was 25 yrs ago and the slips are hiding.. lets just say it was faster than my stock mustang. But then again I put a lot of time and money into that car. again any help would be appreciated

This link will take you to the Kitchener page. When you get there look to the right side of the page. You will see All 50 States and 10 Provinces. Try looking at sites in the Southern States. It will be a lot of searching but if there is one out there.....it will be on this site....Good Luck!
