angliagt Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 If you get the chance,go through Bratteboro,Vermont, & then take highway 9 to Bennington,& visit Hemmings Motor News. They have a free mesuem there,& 9 is a freat drive. I just made to drive from Eureka,CA,to Richmond,Virginia. Met lots of nice people,& saw some great scenery. If you get to Richmond,visit Japanese Classics.They import interesting Japanese cars to sell. Chattanooga,Tennessee has the Coker Tire Meseum,Lookout- Mountain,plus nice scenery. Nashville has the incredible Lane Mesuem,with lots of cool cars. If you get to Eureka,CA,look me up. - Doug Quote Link to comment
qwik510 Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Jason made it to DC last week. We had a great visit. Talked Datsuns all afternoon. I love this community. 9 Quote Link to comment
dgi Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 My wife and I were going east on Hwy 58 just east of Emerald Isle, NC when we spotted "doing it in a Datsun" headed west. Made a U turn and caught Jason a few miles later. It took a few more miles in the traffic to get his attention and flagged over. We had a nice conversation with Jason about his adventure and wished him well for the rest of the trip. Enjoyed the coincidence of meeting him on the road and the opportunity to get acquainted. Wish we had been in the 280Z, it would have been tempting to tag along for a while! 3 Quote Link to comment
dgi Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 I love this picture of Jason's Fairlady in the FL keys. Check out the Mile 0 sticker, only available in Key West. Catch his daily updates here https://www.facebook.com/Doin-it-in-a-Datsun-533477736801054/ 2 Quote Link to comment

doin it in a datsun Posted October 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Hey gang! Taking a minute to let you all know I am very much west bound now. Just crossed the Texas line.. Texas will take some time! I will likely stay on the 10 into the LA area, then the 101 north. I have been thru California multiple times, so I will be making time. I have been planning a trip to CA, to scout my next winter Datsun project car.. They just don't exist in Utah.. So, if you know of anything.. Let me know. Running condition not important! Body/rust is.. Might be interested in any model! PM me if you have something or know of something! Hope to meet up with some enthusiasts along the way for a meal or just a Datsun escort thru town! 6 Quote Link to comment
Busta Nut Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 I'm just across the bridge in the North Bay if you plan on stopping in the bay!! Quote Link to comment
Rhapakatui Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Sorry I missed you then. You've already passed my part of Texas by now. It's a shame you're skipping over Texas by staying on I-10. You should at least take a run through the hills when you get around San Antonio. Quote Link to comment

Pro tip.... Datsuns are cheaper in the PNW. And arguably... more plentiful. 2 Quote Link to comment
