mrbigtanker Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Hey Robert! Glad to hear from you. I really appreciate today's update. You know I really like your meets or I wouldn't travel so far to be there. I'm not complaining about the meet at all, I'm just beefing about the lack of communication and respect for your long distance folks. If we aren't worth keeping us informed... the message is clear. (Just reflecting on your excuses/response ...doesn't texting/calling someone with info for them to make the posts take as much time as it does to simply post them?) (Did I mention I'm probably twice your age and work civil service with emergency services and El Nino flood prep & recovery? I still have time to post and email.) :angel: But you got me beat with having 3 kids. Guess I have no excuse to gripe for my 3 hour drive, eh? Congrats on your long running meet. I support it and hope it lasts another 7 years. So i guess we expect to see you at the show right. Quote Link to comment
Seeker > 620 KC Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Sorry, I was a no show tonight. I've been fighting the latest respiratory plague all week that has been sweeping thru my workplace. Dr. Prescribed antibiotics yesterday and 'm contagious as hell. Slept most of the day. Don't want to catch pneumonia for a 4th time Quote Link to comment

superharry Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Is that the rb 521? I will go if he goes...... lol Yes, every third Saturday of every month for years! And the food aint too bad either Quote Link to comment
EvoRay Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 lol. we will see. I still am not all too confident in the truck making long-ish trips. Don't get me wrong, it's been solid for the last 500 miles, but prior to that, well, having the fucking steering wheel column seperate on you makes you lose confidence FAST. I also don't like taking the truck out later at night. Last thing I want is a blown airbag having me stranded on the 215 in the dark. lol. one of these days though, I'll take it. I'M Currently more obsessed with driving the wagon. 1 Quote Link to comment

rivdat620 Posted May 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 As most of you may have heard Big Mike of DatsunLand SoCal passed away last month. It happened peacefully at home after a short battle with a few different health issues. Mike was a big part of the Datsun community and his mark will live on through tightly sealed rubber door gaskets and window moldings on Datsun's all over the world. Mike was best known for his strong personality and to some made him tough to deal with and for some it made him the son of a gun you chose to deal with. As with all passing's you may have had positive experiences you remember or for some not so positive memories. For the sake of letting things go and wishing good things for everyone in the end lets keep this a positive memorial. Mikes wife has requested that a short service with his ashes present be done at a Datsun event so he can be surrounded by the cars and people he cared about. In Cooperation with the IE Meet, Chris Breyer with SoCalROC will be leading a short memorial service during the meet as a farewell to one of the Datsun communities own. The point of this post is to spread the word and get as many Datsun's out there to send Mike off in Datsun Family fashion. I will personally have fond memories of Mike and I wish him the best ride possible in the afterlife. Please Spread The Word! Saturday May 21, 2016 5:00pm The IE Datsun Meet In front of Portillo's Hot Dogs 12840 Day Street, Moreno Valley, CA 92553 1 Quote Link to comment
Seeker > 620 KC Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 This is a nice notice. I'll be there. I saw Mike at a lot of ER Swaps in LA. Talked to him on a number of occasions and bought parts from him there. And I happened to run into him at the same motel I stayed at for the Canby OR event a couple times. Was he a So Cal Inland Empire resident? Quote Link to comment
