Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

DW had one of those paid a lot more than that for it . We got into it at the dealership over it I opened the hood saw Nissan on the fenders and shut the hood and said leave it here I don't want it . Wiring harness burned up to the head lights five hundred miles from home at night  when it was nearly new .:barnie  But that's just because me and foreign cars just don't like each other . Traded it in before it was paid for. They make them Nissan here now and I still won't have one .  But don't mind me I started working on them in the early 70s and electrical problems were always what it was . They were called Datsun then . 
No Nissan under the hood..... Has a Ford V6 under the Hood. I worked on one of those Older Nissan Villagers before...... :sick

I never worked on it .I refused But I've worked on a bunch of them . I forget the year but it was the only car I ever changed shims to adjust the valves after having the head milled because it warped . One of the early Zs . I like Ford. 3.0 or 3.8? 3.0 is easier and cheaper to work on . Might be worth it to check and change the water pump bad about the impeller fins rusting away and running hot . Factory pump is paper thin . But I bet you know that don't you .

Well i thought it was a 3.0 but I was wrong..... It looks like a 3 liter but it's not.... May be is a Nissan engine..... But for the price I can't go too wrong. I'm gonna start by changing timing belt if it hasn't been done. My wife only drives a mile a day..... It'll last for years.
 
Datsuns were not built for a maritime climate - they'd rust away to nothing within a year. Not sure which were worse - those or Fiat.
 
Seems my garden has become a battlefield today - my 7 POL pullets are squabbling like heck. I think its a combo of some of them just coming into lay and a couple of others deciding that they need to establish themselves in the pecking order. I keep thinking they are being attacked by a predator, only to find them boxing each other

They sure are expensive to service, but maybe I've been fortunate - well, until DW started using it :lau


Well, sir... I see your problem... yes, it's fixable, but it's gonna cost you... half of everything you own... I know it's a lot, but your car will be fine...

...after your divorce...
