You know you own a Datsun when.............

You know you own a Datsun when....naw who am I kidding....Datsuns own us not we own them.....

[Stretch Bolts]

You know you own a Datsun when the first thing people ask you about your car is when you are going to paint it.

[Rhapakatui]

...I still haven't found that Acid.

 

 

I'm starting to wonder if it melted the jug.

[q-tip]

That's a possibility but you would know where it happened.

[Rhapakatui]

For most people you'd be right.  Problem is that I drink.  My last memory of seeing it was saying "ooh! This bottle is starting to blister.  I should move it somewhere safer until I can put it in a new container."

 

I think that was a little over a year ago.  I don't remember where I moved it though.  I've checked all the hiding places I can think of.

On the way to Canby you are waiting at a light and look over and admire your car's reflection in a semi's hub caps.

Is there a hole in the floor of a shed somewhere, or perhaps a very clean spot on your garage floor :lol:

[Rhapakatui]

I have a deep suspicion that it was thrown away while my wife was "cleaning." In which case I have to bootleg some more.

I can identify. On highway 680 North going through Pleasanton that section of razed freeway goes right along side a building with reflective glass. For a good 50 yards it offers a perfect view of what ever you're driving. All too often I find myself passing through there for no good reason. It wouldn't be that big an issue, but that stretch of road is 20 miles from my house. 

 

You know you own a Datsun when... You couldn't give a flying fuck if no one else get's it; you do, and that make you better than them.

you know you own a Datsun when everyone calls it a piece of shit Toyota...... :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky: :sneaky:

 

also... when you don't capitalize Datsun, and spellcheck says "did you mean Sundas?"

[datsunfreak]

Mine always says "day sun" whether I capitalize it or not..   :rofl:

[paradime]

I'm not sure if it's Mac OS X-centric, but my spellcheck doesn't try to fix "datsun" anymore, I don't know if it finally learned it as a word, or maybe it just gave up on me. I know I put my spellcheck through hell and some times I think I should buy it some flowers or something, but I don't want it to get the wrong idea. I believe it's best for both of us to just keep our working relationship strictly professional.

When you wake up at 5:10 everymorning.

 

When you see the plume of smoke behind you and you know you should do a rebuild, but don't because it runs so well. :P

[r0p0doe]

You decide to park it over night on the street for the first time, and you keep checking through the window to make sure its ok :rofl:  (me right now) 

[hobospyder]

Dude that just lets you know she's still running

When you wake up at 5:10 everymorning.

 

When you see the plume of smoke behind you and you know you should do a rebuild, but don't because it runs so well. :P

[r0p0doe]

You're about ready to wreck a lil kid foe touching on your car...

[Eomund]

When you need a special touch to put your gas cap on.

 

When you spend more time online reading tech articles than looking at porn.

[a.d._510_n_ok]

you know you own a Datsun when you exit the parts store to find ricer kids surrounding your car as though it's some sort of re-animated dinosaur while saying, "wow....it actually says "Datsun".......

[datson4life]

When u sell it and u miss it more than your dog, and just think, hows it doing? How are they treating it? Are they pumping the right gas?

Me right now

I right clicked it and added Ratsun and to dictionary on my Windows 8.1 comp. Datsun was already in the dictionary.

[Z chopper]

When you are work and spot a Datsun out in the parking and feel physical pain due to not being able to get out to snap a pic if it for Ratsun

[DanielC]

When you realize the glass headlights never fog, and if a headlight burns out, it is a simple three screw process.

And it seems the glass headlights in my 521 are lasting longer than the new LED headlight designs in new cars.

[Eomund]

When you know where 43 rattles come from in your car. But there's 1 you don't know and it drives you INSAINE.

 

When a part is loose in the cab, and you tighten it with a dime while driving.

Me today lol

[KELMO]

you keep a tub of GOJO in the guest bathroom cuz it closest to the garage.

[JoeCool]

When you can recognize Datsun parts somewhere. A paint and body shop I went to yesterday to deliver a part had a pickup bed in the floor he was restoring. Doing a cedar bed floor along with fixing rust and paint work. Even without the tailgate being on I knew it was from a Datsun 521.
