Oh dang...
I’d very much like to have a slow German 4/5ths Corvette.

I think I like your BIL. Does he drive them?

He probably has an old truck as well, but yes - this is his car (Datsun) and his wife’s.

He bought it and brought it back from the dead for his wife.

His Datsun has some crazy power number for how much it weighs - trying to get an answer on that from my brother.

So he works on it himself?

Yup - built/restored them both himself. Now sure what shape the Datsun was when he got it, but the Open was pretty rough. Need to convince him to do a project car for me!

Seems like all old Opels start out in rough condition. Looks like he did a really good job. You have a great resource in the family.

Haha - if only he was my brother-in-law!

Does he want to finish mine for me?

Well I mean... You don’t have one yet... So I can have mine done.

Extended family definitions can be extended a bit further in certain circumstances.

Definitely! And his Datsun’s got some ridiculous power for how light it is - trying to get more details from my brother.
