I'm Back. But But Not With VW Though
« on: August 03, 2015, 06:26:11 pm »
Hi to all, been a while. I think it's been 3 years since I sold the Buick. Had planned not to buy anymore old rides but no use fighting it as I'm infected for life. Found this on Craig's List. Showed it to Mrs. Scarecrow and to my surprise she said "I like it, go for it" 1986 Nissan model 720 with 106,000 mile on it. Came from Florida and has zero rust. (That's a new one for me LOL). Jay went with me to help pick up but for a change he did not have to flat bedded back to my garage. This sweet machine needs absolutely nothing at this point in time. Everything works and runs and drives well. (That's another new one for me) I do have some mild mods in planned for though. It's good to be back in the garage again.

Regards to all. Scarecrow

Nice, reminds me of my 65 that I used for daily transportation from Sicklerville to AC in early 80's. 40 HP and 6 volt electrics. Spun a bearing on the expressway. Had motor rebuilt with 1300 jugs and pistons. Sold it bought a 1976 Plymouth Duster which I later traded for a 68 Beetle.
