Hi Ratsun folks...

 

Still getting use to that but I have two questions for you guys...

 

1) Why "Ratsun"????....what does it stand for???

 

2) What does "Datto" mean???...

 

I was a rat rodder for 5  years...I never heard the word Ratsun before....to me an old Datsun truck...I called it "Datsunny"...but that was 35 years ago tho...

 

Just wondering out loud...

1: "Ratsun": Ratty-Datsun ... Rat-rod-Datsun ... the guy who started this site had a rusty/ratty 510

 

2: "Datto": seems more popular in Australia ... it's just another word for Datsun

 

3: "Oic": drunken miss keying of "Pic" (for picture)

Hi Ratsun guys

 

Not sure I would like the whole middle finger thing....but "it is what it is"...there are no Datsuns around where I live so I doubt I will have to deal with it...

 

Next stupid question....

 

I see a lot of "goon" in peoples profiles and such...

 

I vaguely remember a movie from the 1980's named "goonies"....any tie in there???

 

I am just trying to get up to speed on this arena of automobiling....

 

Also I dont see any females on here...any reason for that??

 

Thanks for all the insight guys...

I thought ratsun was appropriate because apparently rats and mice LOVE these trucks. Mine had nests in every nook and cranny. Figured all 720s were home to critters lol.

That's to make it easier for y'all down in the big easy to get the gumbo brewing faster.
