ggzilla Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 The article is mostly about Bryan Thompson (Ratsun member) having to sell his Nissan Pao (since almost btw the musuem closed). When did the museum close? Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 WTF? :( That place was awesome. Slide show of my visit. http://s39.photobucket.com/albums/e184/stepfor/datsun%20stuff/Datsun%20Heritage%20Museum/?albumview=slideshow Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 :( well at least this isnt a repost :( Im so sad, i wish i had money to buy some of the auctioned off cars, i hope others find good homes in other museums. Would be awsome to own a peice of history. So so so so SUCKS!! None of the cars were owned by the museum. And none of them were auctioned off. A couple of pepole that had cars there did sell them but not because the museum closed. And it is a repost. We covered this on another post I just can't remember it. But I'll try to find it.

Jassifrass Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 And it is a repost. We covered this on another post I just can't remember it. But I'll try to find it. I don't think its a repost..I think someone said something about the museum in an unrelated thread. Like someone said they might go, then someone said it was closed, but the thread was about something else all together.... I could be wrong. Its sad either way :( Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I know none of the cars were owned by the museum, and i said some of them were auctioned off. And i dont know how it could be a repost since its only happend in the last few days, and no one else here has seemed to known about it. Quote Link to comment
72dyme Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Im pretty sure the museum has been closed a couple of months now. Datrod even had a couple of things put away at his shop. But yeah its sad to see it go. Quote Link to comment

And i dont know how it could be a repost since its only happend in the last few days, and no one else here has seemed to known about it. One was auctioned and that was the little funny car.pao or whatever it was called. Cool little car. And it closed in January so that's just a few more than a couple days ago. Just sayin. :) Quote Link to comment

ppeters914 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 The article states: But the museum has closed and is seeking to relocate, Anyone have the real story of what happened/happening? Pete Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 The article states: Anyone have the real story of what happened/happening? Pete Some of the board members were thinking about finding a spot in the Los Angeles area. But if they don't get funding from Nissan I don't see how it can work. Quote Link to comment
