Thought you would like to see this Labor Day Weekend Datsun ad from "The Union" in Grass Valley-Nevada City, California.

Very cool! Twin gas tanks?
The '68 I used to have came from Grass Valley area, it had the PTO winch also.

And 33 miles per gallon, and 90 MPH top speed.
I want one.

I have a good friend, Jim Zaiser, that lives in Eldorado Hills. Hey how about that 90 MPH top speed! How are dual gas tanks mounted? I'd sure be interested in that tidbit of knowledge.

I think that top part with 33 mpg is for another car, maybe the roadster. it also shows padded dash.

Twin Fuel Tanks -
Remember the forum member who had an auxiliary tank in each front fender. That was the coolest idea of them all and CCV5 would get those if anyone has drawings and can confirm the added weight will not cause the fenders to sag...or at least show the proper reinforcement points.
