620crumudgeon Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 The Datsun June get together lives! It brings people together and builds a strong community where we help each other and provides a venue where we can appreciate the time money and ingenuity spent on our vehicles. It appears that kids aren't as interested in cars as they have been. Could we encourage interest by introducing the Datsun community to high school and college students at the get together next year? If they know there is a community that supports their interest in Datsuns and Nissans they might keep the flame going for our vehicles. John 1 Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Here are the last of my pics. Stopped for lunch at Boomers BBQ just before the border to WA. Never been before or even heard of it, but highly recommend now if you are into bbq. Plus there's a photo op right in front. :) Still working on the video, should be about 15 mins of footage. :) 8 2 Quote Link to comment

jbirds510 Posted June 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Parts! I’d like to say thanks again to all the venders who came out! Vender spots will remain at no additional charge in 2020. Bring lots of parts! I don’t know of ANY Datsun owner who isn’t looking for SOMETHING! You guys made my year coming out and enjoying the weekend with me! @mrbigtankeryou thought that KW was sweet then you are in for a treat..there are THREE massive buildings FULL of bygone commercial. @WAGON JON and @hang_510 a very special thank you to you guys for hauling me down to Sacramento so I could spend some time with my dad while he going through his treatments. And putting up with me going on and on and on about the show through the entire 10 hour drive 😁😂😁 Edited June 12, 2019 by jbirds510 8 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 shit maybe I'll bring some parts to sell next year... 3 Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted June 12, 2019 Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Thank you to all those posting pics!!! I wasn't there very long either day and missed a lot. I did tour the truck museum Saturday before heading over to the Datsuns. I knew I wouldn't make it back if I did the Datsuns first. LOL Great venue for a show!! Thanks jbird! I've been to every Canby. I liked this event enough, I'll continue to go! On the long post of pics.....the wall of wrenches....I'm pretty sure our guide said there was just over 1000 wrenches and no two were alike. The tanker below it was significant because it had over 3 million miles on it. I think he said it had gone through 3 motors and many rebuilds. I think he also said that they would "hot seat" it between Sacramento and Portland(maybe Seattle)....so basically, the truck never really had a break. That distance is roughly 6x's to the moon and back. Edited June 12, 2019 by mklotz70 6 Quote Link to comment
