She has Datsun 200B SX front seats and retractable seat-belts fitted to the
front.
I have also fitted a VDO Tacho.
She has a Alpine CD/Radio player fitted, matched up to a pair
of Alpine 6 x 9's in a custom rear shelf.
She has 14 inch alloys fitted, with Bridgestone (195/65/14's)
She was my daily driver till I sold her to finance the start
of my SSS's restoration project.
She was sold to a nice bloke, who re-painted her, added new
carpet, hoodlining, and rubber seals all the way round.
Unfortunatly she looked too good, she was on the road for
three months, she was stolen, joy rided, and was found burnt out in Gnangarra
Pine plantation.
She was my favourite 1600 ever, and I miss her bad.
