Well, that sucks. Condolences to the family. :(


For those that aren't aware, Mike was the one recreating all of the rubber parts for the Patrols, and other Datsuns. He will be greatly missed.
Beyond any hope for intervention

Oh wow. He seemed to have filled quite a big role in the Datsun community. It certainly explains why I haven't been able to get on his site for so long.
