You mite be a ratsun/datsun owner if....

[Papi Chulo]

If you have spare parts for a car that you've never owned, and never intend on owning, you might be a ratsun owner.

 

If you slow down for left hand turns after you just filled up, you might own a 510.

[sssr20det510]

You might be a Datsun owner if...

 

you have to park on a hill in order to start your truck.

 

you take your buddy along so he can push it while you pop the clutch.

 

Been there done that LOL

You Might be a RedNe...er...RATSUN if....

 

When asked for the Year, Make and Model for.....

 

Year - you total the year of all the parts, divide by the Number for an Average

Make - Use the First Letter of Each Donor Make for a word.

Model - Can't Decide whether to answer with the U.S, Europe, Japan or South Africa Version.

when u find another datsun, and the first thing u think is, where am i going to stash this one? :D

[Shonuff]

you walk right past the good paint, straight for the cheapest bomb can you can find.

 

zip ties are a substantial percentage of the vehicles weight

 

people think your rich because you have a bunch of cars.

 

then they get pissed when you tell em the total cost for all 8 is less then their monthly payment, and you get better mpg.

 

you pay more attention to the car that was in the weeds last week, then the full on restore at a car show.

 

you laugh when people say they recycle a lot.

 

you dream of putting thousands of dollars into a vehicle that cost less then $2k brand new.

 

you think 100k mi is just broke in

 

you use a oil catch can so you dont have to keep buying oil.

[a.d._510_n_ok]

You might be a datsun owner if................ your on a first name basis with all the staff at the local junkyards

 

or if the junkyard guy looks at you and says, "DATSUN!?! Who the f*ck is still drivin' a Datsun in two thousand and nine 'merica!?!".

i have heard that. but usually its followed by something along the lines of " thats dodge right???"

[thisismatt]

...you lowball everyone and expect rare parts for dirt cheap.

[LCDC]

When you go looking through craigslist to find a cheap car for a spare but nothing interests you if its not datsun.

You tell the Parts Clerk Datsun B210 and they respond Is that a Pickup?:blink::blink:

[gokiburix]

....but for a 510!??! c'mon!!!! :mellow:

[Skib]

You tell the Parts Clerk Datsun B210 and they respond Is that a Pickup?:blink::blink:

 

when they ask the make and you say Datsun, and then they automatically say Datsun truck?

 

and then back click a few when I say 240z because theyve already clicked on the 73 620

[hughdogz]

When 90% of your t-shirts say Datsun or have to do with Datsuns.

 

The other 10% are either freebies from work, or gifts :rolleyes:

[Bleach]
