Your 8 year old asks why you have a "car"burator on a truck. :rofl:

[mattomatic15]

When you have your windows down, hear the sound of metal hitting pavement, and immediately fixate your eyes on the rearview mirror to see what could've fallen off this time (It's usually semi's that have their chains dragging... scares the hell out of me every time though)

[r0p0doe]

When you roll your non running 510 down the drive way just to wash it, and you get compliments and neighbors coming up to talk to you about it. Knowing deep down inside that was half the reason you rolled it out besides it really needing a wash lol!!!

[Guest Jamee]

When you scrub mildew off and the original paint comes off too.

[a.d._510_n_ok]

......when your OEM goon roof rack got jammed tight a few years back after you attempted to adjust it. you toyed with the idea of smacking it with a rubber mallet but cringed at the thought of denting it so you just left it alone. for three years. today, after attempting in vain to breathe another season of life into a tits-up Jimmy Carter-era hi-vac Snapper mower, you decide to mess with the rack instead. you barely touch it and discover it has somehow freed itself nicely and moves back and forth like a new one as if to mock you and the disco-era Scrapper..........

When you are out on a drive and notice people walking on the sidewalk, then you downshift and floor it so they can hear you L-series and 32/36 weber rumbling past them

[laotsu]

someone asks you if you want to sell it, you tell them how much time and money you put into it, and then they say "oh I was thinking like $500".

for my two front wheels? Sure, local pick up only.

[Kirden]

you get behind a truck running bio-deisel and think you bought bad gas...

[converted_to_datsun]

You have your hood up in a parking lot tinkering and someone offers to help and they're jaw drops at a loss for words when they see your su's.

[Z chopper]

from the exhaust tone people think you have a V8, but in actuality it is just a hole in the muffler that you haven't gotten around to fixing

[Trophy24]

...when you are working on it in the garage and the same car drives past a couple of times and then stops so the driver can ask you about your car

...when you are working on it in the garage and the same car drives past a couple of times and then stops so the driver can ask you about your car

and he asks if you're parting it out and lists the parts he needs.

[konig209]

When you see someone post on facebook they need help with their datsun and are willing to pay. You drive 30 min to help out and end up finding him rhe parts he needs give him some of your own parts and dont charge him lol

[Rollover_Red]

when you are constantly tempted to sell your nicer, more expensive, and more reliable car to fund your POS dime.......

[oldskoolvws]

You have spare parts for your spare parts.

[w_datsun_a]

You notice a bolt or a washer on the ground where you normally park your Datsun....and you wonder if it was off an important part.

[Guest_kamakazi620]

The datsun breaks down and you have to drive a civic, you hate it until $10 in gas lasts you all week, and that would only last 3 days in the datsun.......

When you have a oil spot in your driveway

[laotsu]

When you have a oil spot in your driveway

gotta say I have never had an oil leak.

[Kirden]

When your wife/significant other tells you to slow down cause the exhaust woke up the baby...

[devilsbullet]

gotta say I have never had an oil leak.

never changed your oil and spill some either? cause if not then can you come change my oil? I don't have a spot, I have like a quarter of the driveway

[mcmlxxxv]

you know you own a datsun when you are looking to buy a garage with maybe a house aside ...
