808 Datsuns

[ggzilla]

Anything Datsun-related happening in Maui the next two weeks? I have to go there and will be missing my Datsun.

[ggzilla]

Well, I've seen more Datsuns here than I would in Seattle... Two 720s spotted on the way from the airport over to the condo.

 

 

The other one was more interesting, what we would have called a "beach rig" on thje Washington coast where I grew up: a 720 with three different colors and no grille.

Here's a pic from a few years ago of a Hawaiian Datsun:

I hope are have having a good trip. Why are you in Maui? :D

[ggzilla]

Ah well it's all right, partly sunny, hasn't rained in two days. I had to take my wife someplace sunny, and she didn't want to go to Ellensburg.

 

There are a half-dozen Datsuns for sale now, may be I should go look at them... craigslist

Evey now and then, I take a look at the honolulu craigslist ads and there was a fews dimes a couple months back. A nice blue one and a couple rough yellows. Dats are a little more rare in the 808 b'cuz of the sea salt.

[ggzilla]

Yes, I don't see as many in Seattle.

Went for a little walk today and saw two more Datsuns:

 

I think that's an SSS or Turbo version.

[ggzilla]

That's a very nice 411 sedan, and quite a rare bird these days.

 

How about a flaming yellow 510 with dual 44 carbs and 5-speed? Only $3k on maui today. http://honolulu.craigslist.org/mau/cto/934579588.html
