Thanks for posting this video. I saw Lyn driving the Datsun yesterday right where I live in Costa Mesa. I love seeing other Roadsters out there. I’m planning on driving down PCH today with mine. Maybe I’ll see some other Datsuns :)
I just bought a 1966 1600 roadster from a family that owned it for 40 years. The service record was insane. I had to drive it back from los oso to LA. Such a fun car
Always enjoyed Lynn's reviews, but she's got a lot more "street cred" with me now, because of the 1600, and the fact that she wrenches. There's an "R" there guys, the word is WRENCHES.
I didn't recognize her at first! Love her ad lib dialog and , gotta admit, the geek wrencher upright hair too! Off the cuff style is legit, glasses rock, whole combo works well, great video.
I love my 66. I really need to get the interior done but I hate the thought of it being apart and unable to drive so I’ve been putting it off. When I bought mine it already had a 5 speed in it. Makes those turnpike cruises at 80mph no big deal. Thanks for sharing!
I currently own a 1966 Datsun 1600 and it's definitely a fun car to drive. My family is really into these cars, my parents had 2 a 1600 and a 67.5 2000, my oldest daughter has a 66 also and my son has 70 1600. When i bought mine it was in a 1000 pieces!! I put it all back together myself and even painted it myself. These cars are so easy to work on it's crazy!!
Yes, Fly with Lynn would be great. Actually any content with Lynn would be stellar. After the big reveal at the end, I checked out her IMDB page. No acting credits there :( Is that by choice or apathy?
There would've been a murder trial if that happened to any of my vehicles, Lyn is a breath of fresh air to the automotive world and she is awesome. We love you as well Micah but sorry she is a doll and what a great awesome Datsun 1600 she has.
Lyn is awesome! Her dream ride is also mine... a new Bollinger (they've got toggle switches too!). Also, riding a 250cc motorcycle, (like my Suzuki TU250X), gives lots of the same pleasure as this Datsun... you can ring it out, have a blast, and not break any laws.
A few disagreements: I owned a 67 1/2 Datsun 1600 (13,000 to 75,000 on the odometer). It was more safe than you give it credit for. Mine was hit from behind by an 70's Olds 88 at about 30 mph. As expected my Datsun crumpled, BUT it safely folded accordion style so the passenger tub's rear trim was not even bent! And they were able to repair my Datsun and I got years more enjoyment out of it. Rollover? I always wished I could afford a rollbar, but it was so close to the ground (and I was so young) I didn't worry much. (ps, I'm an engineer, we think about those things) Safety: My 67 1/2 already had the head restraints, 3 point seat belts, and dual brake master cylinder that other cars wouldn't get till the following year. The dual brakes saved my bacon twice as the tire guys would grab the front brake line when taking my tire off and several days later the tire rim would cut thru the brake line and stopping distances got really long! But it would stop. Seating: Before the days of required seat belt wearing I carried 3 friends on the back bench (it came padded), so the roadster holds 5 WITH the top up! My younger brother was riding back there as we took him to school on a cold Chicago winter morning. He decided he needed to see out the side convertible window, so he cleared the snow off by punching his fist thru the frozen plastic. Power: Those are 96 Japanese horses. My 76 German horsepower Porsche, also weighing 2000 lbs, had equivalent acceleration. My 1600 hit 101 mph with the top down. The Porsche got to 109. Comfort?: We took the Datsun on our honeymoon, Illinois to Florida, 3 days Chicago to Orlando. The seats were fine, of course our bodies were only 23 then. The next car's seats (Porsche) were definitely more comfortable on long trips. Speedometer cables: Mine snapped every June. I think it was from all the snow and salt in Illinois. The first time was right after I purchased it. So I drove my 1600 by feel, not speed. As I went thru the curves on an exit ramp off I 57, I was startled by the tires squealing FROM the GTO that was trying to follow me. After that, and I put radials on, I would pass a Camaro just before the exit and if they took the bait I usually could get them to spin out trying to keep up with my 1600 thru the curves. Thank you for an enjoyable video. It brought back many memories of my little red roadster. Jim
I'm a guy who use to own a Z, but I preferred calling her the Fairlady, kinda like what pilots do. Also, proof that the Fairlady is the GTR's older brother.
Ahhhh...this video reminds me of my time overseas where a buddy won a Datsun 2000, and we ran all around Okinawa in it. Great car series. Thank you, Lyn for sharing your car with us. Really enjoyed your enthusiasm.Thank you Micah, for posting this video. Enjoyed your enthusiasm too!
Love my 70 Roadster only wish I owned a 67. Like you Lynn I never saw a rodster but when I did it was way cooler than any other roadster I saw. (Or could afford) so I had to get one.
Enjoyed watching. A 1969 Datsun 1600 in the same colour was my first car. Loved it - but in our northern climate in Canada the body rust was extreme within four years.
I used to own a 1967 1600. Loved that car! One thing I found out is that it'll "turn on a dime and give you 9 cents change"! One time I was driving on a boulevard @ 35 MPH and came to an intersection where i wanted to turn. Didn't even hit the brakes, just turned the steering wheel 180 degrees and whipped around the corner! I concur about the hydraulic clutch though, had to replace the master cylinder (but not the slave).
I thought Lyn was cool. Turns out she is super cool! And that car you get to actually drive. Micah explains it perfectly. What a wonderful car. And, the info explo showed me some wonderful stats. That Datsun is worth more than my ex-Kia which retailed at 37k and was only three years old. Ah,,,good video,,great experience. Cheers to you both. I would change one thing,,slap Micah from beating on that beauty-no respect.
Fantastic vlog that brought back fond memories of my brother's Datsun 2000. The good news and the bad news are both that they don't build 'em like that anymore, lol.
In 68 i bought a 65 datsun fairlady for $1700 that was 1968 dollars so 14k today isnt too far out of line It was my first sportscar and i had a blast with it.it had some real knockoffs on it. 52 years later at 75 im driving a 91 miata you never get it out of your blood
Excellent presentation by you both of a fun car. Drove a friend's 1600 often in the '90s. Pure joy, and smile inducing. As you stated, about the only change I thought would be nice would have been a 5th gear! Love how you've kept it fairly stock, yet not some pristine museum piece. Glad to see it enjoyed. Cool jacket, Monteros are sweet too: I own a rebadged version sold by Dodge, the Raider.
Never been in one but I always loved its look. 1969 I had a '67 Camero three sp. Inline six approximately 198 hp. Long story short I still like this car look. Enjoy Lynn.
Desperately wanted one when I was in college but had to settle for a '63 Dodge Dart. Some years later, though, I owned a 240Z and loved it dearly for years. Only gave it up to a former girlfriend when the relationship crashed. As for Lyn's participation, the more the better.
You both are awesome! Definitely a couple of my favorite car reviewers! It is cool to see that you actually have a love of cars off camera! Awesome Datsun Lynn!
Definitely + 10 cool points for having the 1600 and working on it yourself. It would have been even more fun to watch the owner drive it and scare the hell out of Micah..
Great video. I owned a 1967 Datsun 1600 SPL 311, bought it in 1973 used, for $550. Had a blast with it. Damn, someone crashed into it and totaled it. Wouldn't mind finding another one.
Awesome video guys! I love you and Lyn! Definitely fly with Lyn, but what if you, Lyn, and Zach flew together! Also what about Tim, the tall Brit from KBB! That would be hilarious!😸😻😸
Owned one that I purchased in the 1980s: it was fun and fast and the only thing I didn't like about the car was the top was almost impossible to lower or raise.
Great videos, the best videos are with your family and Lynn, let's get her up in the copper. Couldn't help share the enjoyment of people enjoying driving slow cars fast, especially manuals
I have a 69 2000 roadster. I have also owned a 1600. Fun cars but the 2000 is a whole different animal than the 1600 and earlier 1500. Even a stock build with SU carburetors make it much more serious of a car. Every time I get it out on a road trip and out in areas where I can shift at appropriate RPM I liken it to climbing into a little single engine fighter and heading off to war! hahahaha It can be scary as hell to drive in modern traffic though. Its just like being on motorcycle. Head on a swivel lest you wind up pancaked by an SUV!
You should continue to do these kinds of videos with your other coworkers at KBB! It would be great to get to know “the team!” A “Micah Flies” video with Lyn would be great! Keep up the great work!
Lyn on Micah Flies? Duh! By the way, Lyn and Micah, restoring an airplane can bring equal satisfaction! My dad restored a 1947 Stinson 108-3 when I was a young kid in the early 1970s, and we restored a Waco S.205 in the 1990s. Bringing classic beauties back to the road or the air is hugely satisfying. Well done!
I always wonder about parts availability with older planes. It takes true commitment to restore aircraft but I'm glad there are brave souls willing to do the work.
@@MicahMuzio As with classic cars (or not-so-classic, just "old"), there typically many sources for parts to repair and restore classic aircraft. Some may be new and factory-spec, but produced by a third-party shop with the original drawings; others are updates to the originals and may even be manufactured by the OEM. It's not much different than committing to a home-built (which is a BIG commitment that requires an understanding spouse with the patience of a saint).
"Anywhere between 20 and 30 miles per hour!" Now that sounds like a fun car! Hahah Fun fact; I actually found you Micah after watching some of Lyn's videos first, which I think is neat because this video now comes full circle for me! Also I really enjoy your shirt, where do you buy your shirts, I want some of them? When Lyn said "It can kind of take a beating" I was real sad not to see an iguana, and then... I was made very happy! :D "YIKES" Lmao. Also love that Lyn has cassettes in the car, which despite me being in my 20s,is actually a throwback. I used my parents cassettes ALL the time when I was a kid!
Micah Muzio You’re not alone in the blinding white torso, I think the only reason mine is tolerable is because I’ve got black chest hair despite the dirty blonde head hair lmao
The Datsun Fairlady was introduced in 1963 with a 1300cc engine. That engine was stroked to 1400cc in 1964. 1965 was the last year of the Datsun "Fairlady" where Datsun stroked the engine to 1500cc and it became known to be quite unreliable. 1966 was the first year of the Datsun " Roadster" and the new short stroke 1600cc engine. The 66 was the first year the Roadster was deemed a "sports car" by Datsun, and introduced front disk brakes (branded Dunlop as they were still under patent write). The fact that this video says this car has all drum brakes and is branded a Fairlady means it is a pre-1966 Fairlady. I question the VIN plate as the engine code has obviously been re-stamped and probably pulled out of a 66 ( lots of them ended up in junk yards for pickers to rampage). Known as the most over designed two seater sports car ever, the Roadsters went on to dominate SCCA racing (Datsun owned SCCA during the 70's) with the 2 liter Roadster. The 2000 was designed with the first production overhead cam engine sold in the USA. It also was the first 5 speed "overdrive" production gear box and the first padded dash in the USA. The 2 liter could hit 100 miles per hour in third gear! Designed to beat the Austin Healey 3000's on the track, it could take down Corvettes. All the Fairlady's and Roadster's were pretty much sold on the West Coast, in 1972 you could drive into a Datsun dealership in Georgia and the salesman would say "Whats That". Little known fact, in the early to mid sixty's Datsun was trying to make headway into the US market, so they were available in three colors, Red, White and Blue (smart marketing).
Ive had 2 of these 2000 datsuns including a super rare 67 1/2 (one of 250 sent to usa). You might be able to get much better performance shoes for the brakes
This looks like the least safe car I've seen on this channel lol No Airbags No Shoulder Belts No Headrests Still looks like awesome fun tho....imagine a more powerful engine in this small car :D
Thanks for posting this video. I saw Lyn driving the Datsun yesterday right where I live in Costa Mesa. I love seeing other Roadsters out there. I’m planning on driving down PCH today with mine. Maybe I’ll see some other Datsuns :)
this was so much fun. I love Lyn!

Whole lot of respect to Lynn for owning this car!
Cool car factor: 11 out of 10. Great whip, Lyn!!!
Shes badass and so is her 1600! Lyn should totally fly in the chopper!
Lyn's awesome. the more of her in your videos, the better
Yup. Lyn is awesome! I'm so glad we get to work together.
I currently own a 1966 Datsun 1600 and it's definitely a fun car to drive.

Chelsea Kroeker Thanks for giving it a look, Chelsea!! 🤘
Lynn, wow, your Datsun looks fantastic! Especially the interior. Nice job maintaining it. Glad you're showing this piece of history some love.
LOVE those toggle switches.
There would've been a murder trial if that happened to any of my vehicles, Lyn is a breath of fresh air to the automotive world and she is awesome. We love you as well Micah but sorry she is a doll and what a great awesome Datsun 1600 she has.
Damn, Lyn is cool.

The driving experience must be similar to when I drove, as a youngster, my 56 MGA. So much fun to drive!

Incredible video, incredible “interview”, incredible car - love you guys’ (& gals’ 😬) KBB work!
Awesome chemistry between you and Lynn Micah. Love the simplicity of these roadsters
Had a 1966 Datsun 1600 in 1970. Simple, bulletproof, fun. Drove it from NM to NYC without a problem. Traded it for the second 240Z to hit town.
I thought Lyn was cool. Turns out she is super cool! And that car you get to actually drive. Micah explains it perfectly. What a wonderful car. And, the info explo showed me some wonderful stats.

This is the best review you've done on your channel. Yes more Lynn on the Micah Drives reviews!
Noted and thanks!

Cool jacket, Monteros are sweet too: I own a rebadged version sold by Dodge, the Raider.
I almost bought one of these in 1998. To this day I regret not pulling the trigger.
Wonderful video and a gorgeous car! Micah, you and Lyn make a great car reviewing team! Yes please, get her in the helicopter!
KBB is lucky to have Lyn... I always get lost in the backgrounds since I live in LA and I have to rewind...

That 240Z was a awesome ride & it turned Beautifully
@@ronaldweed4599 Certainly was. But much like Americans, themselves, Z cars put on considerable weight and size over the years.
@@stephenhendricks103 like the Brits getting fat too. Been there three times.
I have a 64 Datsun 1500 and i love it! Got it for 2k. I Put some work in and now i see it worth over 40k 😆😱
Best car enthusiast duo currently out there. Thanks for the content! Makes me (kinda) miss my 72’ MGB with “lap belts”. :)
This was the best. Lynn is awesome. I love how Micah is so f 🦅 ing giddy the whole time. Oh look there’s Sensi.
Sensi says hi.
You both are awesome! Definitely a couple of my favorite car reviewers! It is cool to see that you actually have a love of cars off camera! Awesome Datsun Lynn!
Lovely, fair car, lovely, fair lady, & lovely fairlady flying is a, um, er, lovely idea. (Especially if flying is at/over/around maybe, a fair...!)
Definitely + 10 cool points for having the 1600 and working on it yourself.
It would have been even more fun to watch the owner drive it and scare the hell out of Micah..
So Cute, I love this car! I miss my convertible and the open air feeling.
What a amazing automobile. And a great video.
My dad owns a 69 Datsun Roadster 2000 and it is fucking sweet. Hands down the funnest car I’ve driven
I’m for keeping it original other than changing from 4 speed to 5 speed.
Love this video. Love the car, and yes, please take Lyn for a Helicopter ride. =)
Great video. I owned a 1967 Datsun 1600 SPL 311, bought it in 1973 used, for $550. Had a blast with it. Damn, someone crashed into it and totaled it. Wouldn't mind finding another one.
Awesome video guys! I love you and Lyn! Definitely fly with Lyn, but what if you, Lyn, and Zach flew together! Also what about Tim, the tall Brit from KBB! That would be hilarious!😸😻😸

Man that's MINT. Beautiful car!
My parents had a 72 510 wagon with lap belts only. Those were the days.
You two are the bests!⭐️⭐️⭐️
Yes, a fly with Lyn sounds fun. Amazing review Micah.
Lovely fair lady, and the Datsun is cool too
I love robust little things! I'm going to use the word "robust" more often. I'M FEELING ROBUST!
💪
Great videos, the best videos are with your family and Lynn, let's get her up in the copper.

I like Lyn Woodward, thats why im subscribed to this channel....;)
Designed back in an era when people were not afraid to live life to the fullest. I am from that era myself.
Beautiful little car! Gjob lyn! 👍👍
She is great!!
You should continue to do these kinds of videos with your other coworkers at KBB! It would be great to get to know “the team!” A “Micah Flies” video with Lyn would be great! Keep up the great work!
Funny you mention it. There are some nice folks at work who've volunteered their cars. I plan to shoot some videos with my KBB compadres soon.

Love her car and love her. He’s annoying as hell. I had a white Datsun roadster years ago. I wish I still had it.
Lyn is super cute, and her expressions 😍
I've always thought Lyn was a doll...totally wifey material. That's a lucky roadster right there.
Best yet.
Beautiful car, reminds me of the MGB💚
God Lyn is so adorable. If you don't have her for a Micah Flies i will riot! Idk how but I'll find a way you mark my words Mr Muzio!
Well then, I better get her in the chopper.
AT-205 works awesome for leaks!
Black excellence to the people
Get Lyn in your chopper ASAP! That would be a fun video. Maybe you two could make a surprise appearance at a KBB event?
Lyn's awesomeness just got more awesome by owning a petrolhead car.
So, the roll bar is your skull 👍🏻😊
Luckily I have a very thick skull.
Wow great car!
"Anywhere between 20 and 30 miles per hour!" Now that sounds like a fun car! Hahah
Fun fact; I actually found you Micah after watching some of Lyn's videos first, which I think is neat because this video now comes full circle for me! Also I really enjoy your shirt, where do you buy your shirts, I want some of them?

For all your automotive shirt needs, check out Blipshift. They've been hiding my blinding white torso from society for years. ;)
Micah Muzio You’re not alone in the blinding white torso, I think the only reason mine is tolerable is because I’ve got black chest hair despite the dirty blonde head hair lmao
Yes to the 5speed
Thumbs Up. If I ever get a chance, I would love to get a Fairlady 2000.
The Datsun Fairlady was introduced in 1963 with a 1300cc engine. That engine was stroked to 1400cc in 1964. 1965 was the last year of the Datsun "Fairlady" where Datsun stroked the engine to 1500cc and it became known to be quite unreliable. 1966 was the first year of the Datsun " Roadster" and the new short stroke 1600cc engine. The 66 was the first year the Roadster was deemed a "sports car" by Datsun, and introduced front disk brakes (branded Dunlop as they were still under patent write). The fact that this video says this car has all drum brakes and is branded a Fairlady means it is a pre-1966 Fairlady. I question the VIN plate as the engine code has obviously been re-stamped and probably pulled out of a 66 ( lots of them ended up in junk yards for pickers to rampage). Known as the most over designed two seater sports car ever, the Roadsters went on to dominate SCCA racing (Datsun owned SCCA during the 70's) with the 2 liter Roadster. The 2000 was designed with the first production overhead cam engine sold in the USA. It also was the first 5 speed "overdrive" production gear box and the first padded dash in the USA. The 2 liter could hit 100 miles per hour in third gear! Designed to beat the Austin Healey 3000's on the track, it could take down Corvettes. All the Fairlady's and Roadster's were pretty much sold on the West Coast, in 1972 you could drive into a Datsun dealership in Georgia and the salesman would say "Whats That". Little known fact, in the early to mid sixty's Datsun was trying to make headway into the US market, so they were available in three colors, Red, White and Blue (smart marketing).
Yes!!!
I want one of these more than another Miata NA
Definitely have Woody fly!
Lyn is rad
I can't believe you pulled out the Innuendo Iguana in this with Lyn lol and what episode of BSG was she in?!?
It's unleaded, greta will be scouling
Ive had 2 of these 2000 datsuns including a super rare 67 1/2 (one of 250 sent to usa). You might be able to get much better performance shoes for the brakes
Ayy it’s Lynn
Fly Woody ASAP. She is lovely. 🥴
This looks like the least safe car I've seen on this channel lol
No Airbags
No Shoulder Belts
No Headrests
Still looks like awesome fun tho....imagine a more powerful engine in this small car :D
