Blue Lake Datsun Meet 8-9-15. Near Portland on the Columbia River. 31st annual.
Good turnout of 8 roadsters and 150+ of those "other" Datsuns.
Great sunny Meet with the usual good prizes, food and awards.
Great visiting with all our roadster and other Datsun friends.
DROPS member Pete Dills got first in the Roadster class.
Proper respect was shown for a real vintage Datsun over those Z cars and Ratsun 510s.
My 67 SR20DET got Best of Show.
NEAT Repro "Datsun Saves" gas cans for the top awards.
"Shifty" was there liquidating more of his roadster parts.
I managed to squeeze some in for the return drive.
390 miles today.

Ted.

It was great to see such beautiful roadsters! I showed up late and parked way down at the other end. I hope to someday have my roadster looking as good as the ones I saw...thanks for all the inspiration!

Ted: I suspect best in show every time is tiresome ... :?: :shock:
But then I would not know :) Congrats!
