[Roadsters] Datsuns - Roadsters and 510's - The lack of.

[Pete Peters]

Guess I'm spoiled. I see dimes and trucks (520/620/720) at least once a week
plus the occassional 210 or 710. Only see a roadster a couple-three times a
year.

G'day all.

I have just arrived back  in AUS from five weeks travelling around the USA
and was disappointed in the lack of Datsun's on the road.  The first "Datto"
we saw was a white Roadster in outer San Diego.  The next ones we saw were
at Michael Spreadburys' "Skunk Works" and the last one (Roadster) I looked
at belonged to Jeff in Columbus.  I did not see a single 510 on the road,
and only saw four early Z's.

Is this the norm in the USA?

Cheers,
