Dirttrack510 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 When someone asks you to turn on the dome light, and you tell em' it's in the glovebox (flash light) When your engine blows up and your girlfriend says "yeah...your cars reliable alright... Now how are ya gonna get to work next week?" And your reply is "it's no biggie, 30 or so bolts and an half dozen wires and I'll have another engine in it tomorrow... I just gotta decide which one of my spare motors I wanna throw in there." :) Happened last thanksgiving weekend :) 1 Quote Link to comment

jrock4224 Posted January 5, 2013 Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 It has that... Smell. I'm sure anyone who has a datsun can recognize the smell of old car mildew and gas fumes that forever linger in the car. Old datsuns have a very distinct smell and I recognize it everytime I get in one... 1 Quote Link to comment
