Congratulations on the new shop space! As for Datsun-themed art, I'm pretty happy with my BRE Datsun poster (signed by John Morton and Pete Brock), and a couple BRE Datsun vintage racing photos. Of course, I recommend something neon to just provide a little mood in the shop... since I don't have a Datsun neon, I had to settle for the Texaco sign instead.

I've got a '67 fender with hooligan graffiti all over it...

Way Cool

Jackson, if you don't know the back story on the fender, hit the link in fish's signature line, and some of the significance will come to light

Thanks Sid , i watched the video about that great adventure a few weeks ago , but watched it again today . For me a trip like that would be a dream come true . I put 5 thousand mile's on a motorcycle trip about 10 yrs ago, nothing at all like Scott's trip .Also Scott's blog about China was very interesting . My wife is from Qingdao China and i have spent some time there . Loved his pic's of the fishing boats made of logs , those are the real deal there not just movie props

Datsun Roadster Art

Love the rear valance panel! Are the taillights working, or is that just a reflection in the picture?

Looks like they work from the second picture and the wire coming from it. Pretty cool.

My Datsun racing banner is on a wall not shown

These are my basement bar. The "vintage and Shiny Datsun" prints were made on a vintage wood type press by a friend. The Roadster is hand carved. I have framed several Japanese car ads, some car show posters from a local winery and I have a 1968 license plate from all 50 states and D.C. surrounding the bar area.

Banner for the shop:

That is awesome Alvin!

Here's some of the Datsun stuff I've collected over the years for the shop

Love that Goodyear Tires sign-- never seen that one before!
