Datsun Low
« on: March 13, 2008, 08:45:38 PM »
A friend of mine has asked me if anybody on here has any history on this Datsun Low ?
Does it belong to anybody on here ?

Cheers

That's Eddie Ratley's old ride.

Very cool car. Was white, then blue, now gold...

There is some great fabrication at the back end to get a better three-wheel. Eddie went into great detail explaining to me all about falcrum angles and stuff.

I am amazed it still exists - it's had several owners giving it hell over the years, but such a cool car.

Found the magazine, it's the April 2002 issue of Street Machine, has a red 900bhp chevy truck on the cover ("Truckin hell!") - I have scanned the images but they are in some funny format (.TIF files or summat) and they're huuuge!
