Even when the it isn't actually that good, you always want your dad's car at some point. It's a cool car simply because it's your dad's car. But what happens when your dad's car is actually something covetable? Something like a Datsun 240Z perhaps?
You buy one. Ollie Streek's father Mel owned the red 'Ratsun' you see here and, having spent some time driving it, decided he wanted his own. So he bought a restored Zee from Copenhagen and now the two enjoy their Datsuns together in Kent. Father and son 240Zs?Excellent idea!
The Petrolicious style of production works just as well in the UK as in the States, even if Kent can't quite match California for glamour. Hopefully you will raise a smile too at the middle-aged father driving the unpainted car and the young man in the fastidiously restored example. And don't assume it's just a case of dad funding son's car purchase either...
