Phantom Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 So - who all will be at the 10th annual Datsun NW swap meet in Canby, Oregon June 13/14? My car is still in pieces but hope to have it back together the end of this coming week. If so - I'll be going. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Me. There is a Canby thread already covering this. http://community.ratsun.net/topic/62875-canby-2015-10th-anniversary-no-excuses-june-13th-14th/ Find me when you get to Canby. It would be nice meeting a local-ish kind of guy. Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Dammit, this reminded me to go register and it's already closed! It's still three weeks away! Oh well. I'm sure I won't be turned away at the gates. If so, I'll sell the wagon and go drive a Prius. NOT!!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 I can get you one hell of a deal on a Prius. We can lower it a full 1" without spending a dime. Looks super good slammed. Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 If by looking good you mean like a fat chick riding a tricycle screaming "Look at me!" :sick: Oh, and FUCK TOYOTA. Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 And I seriously wouldn't drive a Prius if it was given to me. I'd take the new shotgun and unload on it though. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Only because you can't work on one. This thread is off to a great start. We lowered an employee's Prius by flipping the rear axle beam and lopping half a coil from the top and bottom of the front springs. Never got a pic and said employee has left the company. Super easy, looked good. Rode decent too. Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 No, wrong, sorry. A Prius will never look good. You could cover it in Scarlett Johanssen and it would still look like a steaming pile of dog doo. 1 Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 And I'm actually going to use MR2 struts on the front of the race car tomorrow. But that's different. As much as I hate Toyota, the MR2s are awesome and always will be. That said, I need to make a sticker for the wagon that reads, "The only good Prius, is a dead Prius." 1 Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Sweet! Another Spokanite! Only 32 posts, no wonder I don't recognize you! Where have you been hiding the 210 goodness? Keith, we need to figure out when we're leaving, moomin, you should be in the caravan from Spokane to Tri-Shities where Keith is. And remind me to get the number for Bill, the random guy who showed up last Canby and told me he had a center console for a Maxima, but at the time I didn't need it! Damn! Been trying to find his number to no avail. Hoping he shows up this year. Still haven't grafted in the Stanza console, I'd love to just have a factory console to put right in, providing it's not missing pieces like mine. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 I'm going to be traveling North-East to Canby Friday morning. Me, wife, and kids will be in Newport, OR Wednesday through Friday. Back to Portland. Wife will take kids North, I go to Canby. Quote Link to comment

HRH Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Hey Farmer, Friday sounds good to me. Now, let's see, should I install a trailer hitch on the wagon and bring a tow bar just in case I bring something back from Canby? ;) Oh, and lowered, stanced, whatever, IT'S STILL A FUCKING PRIUS!!!! Fuck that shit. Fuck it right in it's silly ear. 1 Quote Link to comment

And I'm totally down to join the caravan, what time are you guys planning on heading out? I wouldn't be able to leave Spokane until noon because I have to work a halfday that day :angry: Quote Link to comment
tr8er Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 That's it. I'm dropping an L into a Prius. All the reliability of a 70's car, with the modern, beautiful styling of a Prius. Quote Link to comment
