Ol Skool Datto

I had the opportunity of viewing a friend of Ben's Datto (Nissan/Datsun) 120Y.
This was a real workhorse of its time and its still kept in immaculate condition.
Its engine is infallible still runs perfectly with only minimum maintenance.
I can't tell you how nostalgic this feels for me as my grandaddy used to fetch me from school in one of these!

Hi bro Mesh, I'm so sorry Iforgot your name straight up. Thanks for signing in bro.

You have a beautiful ride. I'd say the best thingyou could do now is to invest in yourself and just do proper maintenance.

Let's learn to drive together yea?
