LanceVance Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 You know you own a Datsun when... You drive a car with an MSRP nearly 40 times that of the Datsun's... And you can't help contemplating swapping the engine into the Datto! Of course, some of you HAVE done this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoC MATADOR Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) You know you own a Datsun when you finally get the car running after finishing the last "up-grade" and right away decide to do another one that will take at least two months to complete. ALSO... You know you own a Datsun when woman that are older than your car start hitting on you, even though you're less than half their age...
