datrod Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Found me a board. But no lakes :( Parked my wagon in the car show area, when I came back there was a pretty nice 4 door 510 on one side and a super clean 79 510 on the other. Quote Link to comment
DREWSDIME Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I was there today. I love Pomona swapmeet I was born in Pomona and have been going since I was little. My buddy Edgar scored a huge work shop floor mat with the Nissan logo I was pissed I did not see it first. Thats Ok I scored some more Datsun license plate frames and some 620 manuals. I will post some pics later. Quote Link to comment
DREWSDIME Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Ontario speedway mag and Riken lock lugs for Datsun truck Quote Link to comment
Duncan Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 When I was in High School, there were 2 Datsun Dealers here in So Cal. I don't remember exactly which cities they were in, but there was Sun Datsun and Moon Datsun. It would be cool to have one of each license plate frame. Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Nice score on the frames. I looked thru a couple of piles but no datsuns. Quote Link to comment
DREWSDIME Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Yeah there is one guy out there that I met about 2 years ago that scored a collection of frames from a guy. The first time I meet him he had about 10 Datsun frames, I paid him what he was asking and the rest is history. He told me he would put aside all the Datsun stuff for me. I have bought probably at leats 60 frames from him easy. He still has about 8 more I will get next time and thats the last of the Datsun frames he has. I believe there was more than 2 Datsun dealerships in SoCal, one of them being Ontario which I would trade any of my frames for! Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 How much you want for that DATMAN ESCONDIDO DATSUN Quote Link to comment
burrito213 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 How much you want for that DATMAN ESCONDIDO DATSUN same request, but for the "puente hills datsun" if you are collecting then nevermind. however, great find :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
burrito213 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 what the heck?!.... so there were dattos out there. and there were datto parts too?..... i did see a cool huge bud light helmet some guy ended up buying. i really didnt see anything of the datsun sort and i showed up at 6:20 and left almost around 11:00. i only saw one. this one: i was snapping some photos of it because, in my opinion, it is one of my fav trucks so far and i think the owner showed up. i was pretty burnt out from all that walking so i dont know if it was the owner or just some dude checking out the honda mini bike he had in the bed. i never would have thought about it till i saw what you wanted (datrod) but there were quite a bit of surfboards out there.:) some pretty cool cars out there too.

DREWSDIME Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I collect the license plat frames, I only sell the ones I have doubles of. I would however trade anyone I have for an Ontario Datsun frame Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I collect the license plat frames, I only sell the ones I have doubles of. I would however trade anyone I have for an Ontario Datsun frame The only reason I asked is that I know the guy that started the DATMAN deal at that dealer. He is like 88 years old. I think he would get a huge kick out of that. Quote Link to comment
