Kirden Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 That rock crawler is slick. You would probably be the only one that could make the dragon :P Edit: On a side note, any of you guys know of any swap meets in the south east for our little dattos? I keep finding cruises and a few shows, but next to no or markets are included. Maybe I should just go to the cruises and meets and beg for info on parts... I'll take my Datsun coffee cup and beg for numbers/directions from the people that pass me :P Quote Link to comment
josh_t Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 <-----Central Bama here. My 510 will probably never be finished though. When it is however, roadtrips abound. Lurka- old ass dattos on 3 mile bridge = 14 miles of traffic back-up cause murphys law Yep. It'd be like my fuel filter getting clogged or something random and annoying. And Metalmonkey47 would notice a few missing lug nuts on his truck. Quote Link to comment

You can build a camaro from scratch at one of them, but you can't find a Datsun bumper sticker. Moultie, Ga is the biggest one that i know of around our area. It's held twice a year, in February and November. There's one in Dothan, AL but I'm not sure when it is. And I think there is one in Panama City Beach. Quote Link to comment

'70dime Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'm down, dont let this idea die! Quote Link to comment

Cause the meet was in Haddock (1 caution light town...) He ended up trading an LTD for the trailer, it just happened to be full of hay :P Quote Link to comment
LeviGideon Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 I'm in central Alabama. I've met two Datsun guys from around Dallas, GA in my parts dealings. Odenville... Pretty much right up the road from where I'm at right now (Boaz). You wouldn't happen to know the guy with the red 240z, would you? I've seen it once or twice on the freeway heading into the Ham.

debo Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Southeast Alabama, I'd be down for something on the panhandle, panama city beach would be nice. Quote Link to comment
Dat Lurka Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 I may possibly be relocating back to Pensacola soon and will do my best to set something up. Johnsons Beach and Big Lagoon would both be great places for a meet. They both have state park fees but it was like 3$ last time I went. Johnsons beach would be great opportunity for some datsun drag racing. It's one long road from Perdido and travels the length of the western barrier island. You can park at the end and walk to Fort McCrae which is just a straight up party zone. It's one of the few places you can camp and BBQ right on the beach. Check it out on gearth or something 30.3088666846, -87.3739882571 Quote Link to comment
bilzbobaggins Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 We need a Saturday meet, Not a Sunday meet. I want to go to the one in ATL, but I work every Sunday. Not too many datsuns round these parts.... Quote Link to comment

Are you the guy with the white 510? I've seen a white 510 in Enterprise twice. Unfortunately I was on the wife's Altima so I couldn't catch the guy's attention. Quote Link to comment
graveltrapp Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 i used to live 45 minutes away from there. and i sliced the whole left side of my left foot open when i slipped on a rock playin by the visitors center. shoulda got stitches but eh its but a flesh wound. Been mountain biking up there too on a Trek demo day. Must be talking about Tsali,,, I got lost in there one night on a ride, took us about three hours of bike pushing to find our way. It was so dark and we had no lights that we could not ride slow enough to see the trail. We finally smelled someones fireplace and headed in the general direction. long night. World class trails for sure. At least he got a memorial for his efforts... Quote Link to comment
