Everyone likes to hear a positive review of their effort and, just like the previous two editions, we've been
hearing from people who have received their books and owner's manuals.

For those of you who have not heard of us or our publications you may be cautious about the investment
or if the books or manuals will be of any value to you.  For that reason we are providing this page of
comments we've received from customers of the NEW 3-part Datsun Roadster Book and our reprint
Owner's manuals.  All of the previous comments about the previous edition have been deleted except for
the very last one we received - we just had to keep that one!

Please read on and if you still have questions, feel free to email us at s_sheeler@hotmail.com.

We're proud to have international customers in Canada, the UK, Australia, Switzerland, Norway, Finland,
Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Mexico, and Japan and we thank them for
their comments.

Hopefully there will be more positive comments in the future to add to this page. Maybe yours........?

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED!

Oh yeah, most importantly, if you're not COMPLETELY satisfied after you receive the books or manuals
you can return them (please - in new condition and well-packed) for a FULL refund!   If there is a quality
problem when you receive them, WE will cover the media mail postage cost to return them to us and then
we will send you a replacement.

You read that correctly - we're that sure.
The Best Compliment Ever - June 2009 (from the 2nd edition)!!

"I received my copy of "The Datsun Roadster Book" today, then spent most of the rest of the day perusing it.  Thanks to all of you who described
it honestly and without exaggeration.  To those of you who don't have the book, consider this yet another endorsement.  Buy it!  There aren't too
many left.

Beside the dry mechanics and specs, the book has plenty of anecdotes and sidebars for liberal arts majors like me.  Reading "The Fairlady
Story" translated from the Japanese, I found it interesting that we all drive"Dutsuns," not Datsuns.  But then, who hasn't exclaimed, "What?!"
when reading a translated-from-Japanese repair manual?  Plus, the photography is extraordinary.

Shortly after I ordered the book, I received a kind thank you from Scott Sheeler.  No Scott, the rest of us wish to thank you and your crew for
such an exemplary book.  Now, how do I keep the book clean, reading it while it's with me underneath my SPL?

Finally, here's the standard disclaimer.  I don't personally know, nor work for, nor am paid by, anyone who is responsible for the writing and
publication of "The Datsun Roadster Book."  This endorsement is mine; no one else's."
Comments About the New 3-Part Datsun Roadster Book

From Germany "klasse vielen Dank"

From Portugal "Hi Scott.  I receive the book two days ago.  Everything perfect.  Just for your records there are in Portugal just four units : 3 ,
1600 and one two liters.  I have mine since 1995 and was in UK imported from Arizona.  Perfect, but need a overall repair since original colour
was Blue Sky but someone painted red.  From 1975 up to 1996 I work for Nissan in Portugal (VP Marketing and Sales).  Among others I have 320
Pick Up, 411, B110, 240Z .  A pity Renault is now main shareholder.  Best Regards"

From Australia "Hi Scott and Pam,  Thanks for your email. I’m really looking forward to reading your books.  Kind regards, XXXXX

"Excellent Books. Great people to deal with."

From Australia  "Hi Scott & Pam.  The Roadster Books arrived today, they were in great shape thanks to your excellent packaging.  They are
lovely books and will be a great resource as I restore my 1968, 2000."

Thanks for your effort in putting these books together.

From Germany "Hello Pam and Scot, thank you for the nice contact. Danke!!  Everything perfect!! Thank you very much! Danke aus Bayern."

"Hi Scott;  I received the books that I ordered last week the delivery was very fast .  Thanks."

From Australia  "Hi again.  My new manuals arrived today. One for the glovebox and one as a spare. Perfect. Thank you.  I have just bought
another for Matt XX as he has been so welcoming and helpful to me. I am sure he will love it too.  Thanks and regards,"

5th Anniversary Sale - April 25 thru 29, 2011

From Australia (again) "Hi Scott and Pam, as predicted, I stayed up late into the night reading. I will be spreading the word that is for sure. I have
attached two pics of my car. Thanks again."

From Australia "Hi. Just thought I’d let you know I picked up my new books from the post office last night.  They arrived in perfect condition due
to your very careful packing – thanks !  

Again from Australia "G'day to you both. What can I say? Incredible books. Super fast delivery. Very well packaged. I love them already and have
only just arrived home with them. Have glanced through all three briefly and already I just know it is going to be a very late night with me sitting
in bed reading until the wee small hours. I do not know how you could have done it for the price. Well worth every cent and more. Obviously a
labour of love. Thank you so much.  Warmest regards."

"Just received my set.  Great packaging and fast shipping. Thanks again Scott and Pam!"

"Scott, received books today. Have not been able to put them down. Interesting info. Have been a Datsun driver/owner since about 1973 when I
bought a 1968 SRL. Have 5 in various states.  Planning to put a 70 SRL back on the road."

"I was your first customer for the TDRB; it was kind of you to mention that on the LIST. My first one is kind of tattered, and I now live in FL (much
warmer), so it's time for a new set. Thanks for the good work. Paul F."

"Hi Scott. Thanks for your great effort, I'll be looking forward to see it!"

"Hello Scott, you’re welcome.  And thank you for publishing the volumes.  I look forward to learning about the recently purchased roadster to
better appreciate and understand it."

"Thanks man!  I am about to rebuild my roadster and have been waiting on these books for a few months now!"

"Hi Scott, Thanks for the bonus manual. I would like a 67.5 copy if possible.  I'm sure I will be spending many hours flipping through these books
once they arrive.  Thanks for putting them together and making them available to the public."

"Thanks for the update, anxiously awaiting the delivery!  I know I'll have some interesting reading ahead of me, just need to hide in the garage
where nobody can find me!!!"

"Thanks Pam.  This will arrive in time for my birthday then.  Happy Birthday to me.. :D"



"Just to let you know, the books arrived on Christmas eve as promised. They are VERY informative - I can't get my head out of the pages.  
Thanks for your hard work on bringing this information together and sharing it with this community."

"Looking forward to your works of blood and sweat, looks like many nights reading...
As far as a car goes, just picked up a 1970 2000 and a 1969 1600, but if I have to choose I would go with the 2000. Can't wait!"

"Great information, well printed, thanks"

November 4,2010
"Thanks for your work on the books and reprints."

From Quebec  "First, thank you for your prompt shipping.  I agree that you give 20% for this organization.  It's important, thank you for them.  I
visited your website and it is very good.  Lots of information and links.  It is very well done and easy to navigate.  It will be very useful when I will
begin the restoration of my new Datsun Roadster 67.5 SRL311-00XXX Gray with original Solex Kit.  I have another 67.5 SPL311-12XXX  Red,  full
restored with 2000 engine.  Your documentation and your website will be an important asset for restoration of 67.5 Gray."

"Scott:  Got the books today.  Just a quick flip through them is very impressive.  What a great body of work, you should be proud.  Thanks a
bunch (maybe I don’t need to find the right car now, I can just build myself a new one…).  P.S. You really gotta tell me where you got the
packaging tape you used on the outer box-  I think you could lash stuff to the side of the space shuttle with it…"

"Thanks, Scott.   I haven't found the right car yet, but I will and your books, I expect, will be a great help."

"Hi Scott.  Got the books today, even better than I expected!!"

"Hi  Scott.  Wow, I've never received a personal note after ordering a book!  Again, thanks for the e-mail and I look forward to receiving the
manual"

"...I won this set at the Mitty a few years back.  It was the first time I had won something really great that I really wanted.  Anyways, I'm looking
forward to this volume."

"Didn't believe it until I saw it - what a great source of information!"

"Your books are awesome!"

"Scott, I bought your books awhile ago and wanted to thank you for the resource."

From Australia - "G'day Scott.  Part 3 arrived and is excellent.  So good to know what the text was on the Fairlady 1 and 2 books from Japan.  
Brilliant work on your behalf to produce the 3 parts.  Thanks again."

From Norway - "I just received the number three (096).  I`m very satisfied with the book.  A lot of things I didn't know."

"Thank you so much for going to all of the effort to translate all of this material, I really enjoy the books as they have come in very handy as I
restore my '69 2000."

From Japan - "I came back my home yesterday a long time.  I read the Datsun Roadster Books and some (owner's) manuals.  How nice book and
manuals!!   Items had already arrived.  I'm sorry I say thanks for you too late.  Thanks again."

From New Zealand - "Thanks so much for the huge amount of effort that you have put in to assembling this information – I am sure the whole
Roadster community really appreciates it.  Later this year I am hoping to start on the restoration of my 67.5 Roadster that I imported from Arizona
a few years back and I am positive I will be referring to the books a lot.  Still unsure if I will restore it as standard, convert it to right hand drive
or drop an SR20 in at this stage but look forward to the challenges involved."

"Thank you for your wonderful manuals.  I hope it's enough inspiration for me to get off my butt and finish my long neglected (23 years)
restoration of my 68 2000.  Although it was originally sold in California, I bought it in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada when I was on an exchange
tour with the Canadian Air Force.  Over the years I have acquired most all of the parts I need and have had a frame off restoration of the body
done, but now it's a shell that needs to be reassembled, I'd almost forgotten how, when I got your book.  I also sweet talked a local Nissan dealer
into letting me Xerox their parts manual, but again your version is much easier to read.  Enough rambling, thanks again for your wonderful
books!"

"Excellent product.  You have my endorsement."

"Dear Scott,
Thank you for the books.  They are SO GREAT.  And represent a mind-boggling amount of work and research.  You are to be congratulated on
taking all this on and succeed at it.  These are well worth the money charged.  WELL WORTH.
AND, it was such a good idea interspersing all those color pages thruout the books.  These really dress-up the books in a very pleasant and
interesting way.  For me those color ads and bits of history bring back such pleasant memories to when Joan and I were so involved with her
1966 SPL311; the car that I bought her in lieu of an engagement ring.  She LOVED that little car so well, that she got a job selling Datsuns, at a
time when there were very few women car sales persons.  She sold them right up thru Nissans for the rest of her working life, until she retired
in 1995.  And all because of that SPL311 Datsun Roadster.  Joan passed on 15 years ago.

Thank you again for these 3 great books.  These will become an actual PART OF MY 1967, just as it's spare wheel is.

"Thanks for putting another volume together and yes I do like the white paper better.  The minute Dean had listed the book I bought it...  Thanks
again for making these three very nice reference manuals."

"And I'm here to tell ya they look great!  Road tests, racing articles, roadster ads from Japan, etc.  Want to know exactly how the optional roll bar
is supposed to mount?  It's in there on page 124 of Volume III.  And Scott's collection of analyses and service notes (which date back to the
original Rising Sun Racing catalog) is still the best and most thorough reference I've ever found on our cars.  But the part I'm thrilled with the
most (so far - still checking them out) is the translation of the Fairlady Vols I and II books.  I've owned these beautiful hardcover books for years
and always wished I could actually read the text, not just look at the pictures.  Now I can!  Did you know a Datsun 2000 finished 9th overall in the
1968 Monte Carlo Rallye?

Some people may balk at the price. Maybe I'm immune to it because, as a software developer, I spend $40-50 each for books about a particular
version of a language or database system that will be made obsolete in four or five years when the next version of the software comes out.  But
the information in these books will never go out of date, and you can spend years trying to track down all this information yourself.  I know, I've
been doing it since 1971 when I bought my car.  To be able to have it all put together for you in one package is definitely worth it in my opinion.  
Scott, thank you for all your work over the years."


OWNER'S MANUALS

"Delighted with the product, well done. Many thanks."

From Germany "vielen Dank"

"WARP SPEED Shipping! Excellent Ebay Seller! TTU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

From Austraila "Hello Scott and Pam.  Thanks for your prompt service – I look forward to getting the manual.
Attached is a photo of my car and a photo we had taken at last year’s Roadster Nationals in ‘Oz. We got 50 roadsters (and a couple of Z’s) – the
first time we’d had so many in one place down under.
Regards,



















"Great communication-super fast shipping - nice product - Thanks."

Thanks again."

"Just wanted to let you know that I got the manuals.  Love them!  Thanks,"

"I received my Owner's Manual a week ago Friday.  Thanks for your help in getting through one of my first experiences with eBay."

"Thanks for the info and thanks also for substituting for the 69  manual.  I was so happy to see any manual I jumped  before researching what
other years  were  available.!  I hope it isn't a nuisance.  Cheers"

"Great product. Very high quality. Recommend to all."

"Great quality! Fast shipping!"

"NICE...manual looks better than the original!!!"

Comparing us to an original manual on eBay -
"IMHO, the first manual listed is worth the $50 if one has a nice 1970 roadster and wants a manual. Otherwise, Scott Sheeler's reproductions are
beautiful and economical. I bought Scott's products for my '66, '67-1/2 and a friend's '67."

"Thanks for your email -- this is a Christmas present, and xxxx doesn't know about it!  He'll be so happy to have it!
Thanks for making this available, it is such a nice gift to the Datsun community."

From Australia "Excellent product, well packed and very prompt postage to AUS. Thanks!"

"A really excellent reprint. Very happy"

"Thanks, Pam outstanding reproduction very pleased to receive it today, Norm"

"Book arrived in perfect condition, well packed. Great item. Great seller."
"Great item."
"Very nice reprint... Very informative and helpful with restoration."
"A very nice item. Thank you!"

"Very nice manual, fast shipping.  Thanks!!"

From Japan - "How nice manual ! I want to do business again!"

"Hi Scott, received my 1500 Owners Manual today.  Very impressive!  I am pleased that such a good quality reprint is available for a 45 Y.O. car,
at such an affordable price.  Another step towards my total restoration to a factory spec 1965 SP310!  Regards from ... in  the land of OZ ; )"

"Thanks for pulling this together!!"

"...so that's how the damn seat belts work!"

"Great owners manual, high quality, fast shipping. Thanks!"

"Awesome product.  Got it today and was extremely happy."

"...a beautiful reproduction manual. Thanks"

"Very nice reprint, Quick service. Thanks!"

From the Netherlands - "We had a meeting with 12 "Fairladies" in the Netherlands last Sunday. One guy had one of your owner manual copies:
great quality!  I'm looking forward to it."

"Someone once said, "When it's true, it ain't braggin'."  The Owner's manuals arrived today, and they are absolutely beautiful.  The print quality,
photo quality, color work, cover and paper quality -- all just great.  I have an original manual, in fair condition.  I can't say just what a genuine
original looks like, but I suspect it would be difficult to tell yours from an original.  Much, much better than any other reprint I have ever seen.
Excellent work.

"Hey your books and the owners manuals arrived.  They are all Awesome!!  Thanks so much."

"Product as advertised.  Super fast shipping.  Better than I expected."

"The next best thing to the original!  Quality repro!"

"Scott the manual was perfect."
