1998 Pikes Peak Hill Climb Nissan Skyline GT-R NISMO 400R



Saw these cool pictures and video came up on Facebook and I wanted to share them.  BEST ran a yellow R33, 400R at Pikes Peak in 1998. Its funny, I don't think we even really knew about this in 1999, when MotoRex ran an R33 at Pikes Peak with Rhys Millen and UPRD.

Check out the video of the run. Sounds kind of angry.

1965 Datsun Pickup



I saw this pickup listed in Hemmings, and clicked though to check it out a little more. Here are a couple of odd things about it. Its listed by a private seller in Haverhill, Massachusetts.

"1965 Datsun “one off” Extended cab pick up truck, near perfect in every way! 46.917 miles from new. Cab is extended 7” and this show truck needs nothing!

Price: $21,995 obo "

They may have just bought the truck and are looking to flip it, but you would think they would at least use their own picture. The truck in the picture, dated last month has a California plate, and judging by the palm trees, and the rest of the background, I would say this looks like the truck is in California.   Then onto the truck itself. It says its a one off with a 7 inch extended cab. Generally the more original something is, the more money its worth. It is definitely one of those buyer beware kind of listings. It would need some more explanation to me before I got serious on it.  Just one of those curious things, there may be perfectly reasonable reasons, but it screams caution to me.

Hot Wheels R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R

More pictures and variants over at the Lamly Group Blog


The new Hot Wheels lines of cars are doing really well within the enthusiast community. I know lots of "big boys" with huge collections of Hot Wheels. The 2014 R34 has a little different graphics package and a higher rear wing- maybe it has the Mine's extensions.  Check out all the Hot Wheels R34's over at the Lamly Group Blog.
