Never really got a good look at one of these before, tail lights and trunk lid look funny and it looks a bit flat faced.

This is a great price and would be great for someone with the patience of Job to restore. The parts are made of near-unobtainium, and I speak from first hand knowledge about that.

I have patience to restore cars; I've done it before and I'm doing it right now.

Unfortunately my cash flow doesn't allow me to play with cars I'm not extremely familiar with.

True story: When I was born, Dad drove my mother to the hospital in a Datsun Roadster.. They had a matching pair at that point.

I always wanted one. Just not enough to drop $1800 right after buying a wagon.

Pretty cool story.

When I was born, it was a 1993 Roadmaster

Seems like a good price, and judging by the grill and side "Fairlady" badge, it's possible that this is also an early 1500 model.

I talked to that guy twice a few weeks ago. Too many unknowns for me to dive in at that price.
