datzenmike Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 No one wants any part of it, but she gets a thumbs up often enough. Quote Link to comment
ratpatrol66 Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Never been asked if it's for sale. I get more of a "wow that thing runs" kind of a thing or "is that legal". 4 Quote Link to comment

a.d._510_n_ok Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 all I ever hear out in here in redneck country is, "I didn't even know Datsun made cars!!!". wait, you've never heard of a Datsun 280z? "Oh, yeah....." 1 Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Always get the "I had a, or I knew a guy" thing, but never "is it for sale". My 510 isn't a blank canvas kind of car though. definitely fully Ionized. 2 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 "Nice car" every time I drive her, had coupke ask if i would sell her, I say "there's no money that can buy her" Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Last three were.... "What year?" "That is so cool" "Good to see one still being driven". To which I said "It's even better to be driving one" Also a couple of smiles, nods and waves but no one wants one enough to ask. Doesn't hurt my feelings one bit. 1 Quote Link to comment
Jesse C. Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 They ask what it is and I tell them it is a Datsun 510, and then the "I knew someone with car like that" stories start to flow. Always turns out they had a B210. Yup! Same car. Quote Link to comment

Especially the 3rd entry. Then they try to buy it off you! Quote Link to comment

shacks510 Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 I had a guy asking me what's all done to the car (played dumb), then tell me to never sell it (duh), then he asked if I want to sell it, I chuckled and said no, then he called me a pussy and drove off. :confused: :confused: I find it especially rude when people walk into my driveway and straight up ask "is this for sale?" Motherfucker do you see a for sale sign on it? At least buy me dinner before you fuck me in the ass. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 I always get "are you going to paint it?" I get the " are you going to paint it" one also. Last year I won the Under Construction trophy at a big car show in my area. They asked me to say a few words when I received the trophy. "Under construction? I thought I was done. Shit." 5 Quote Link to comment
Royal Sierra Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 I consider mine under destruction as far as rust goes 1 Quote Link to comment
