Whew! Thanks buddy!

I can believe that the 'garage' is gone, as it was just a set created for the commercial. My firm had the same company build some aircraft mock-ups for us, and I got a CD of the 'Dream Garage' being constucted for the commercial. Luckily, there are shots from the ad on the CD so I have pics of all those Nissans.

I dont know anything about it, but just dont make sense to me.:sick:

One more reason to hate the FRENCH.........Even if the car's were not crushed just moving out of Calif is bad enough....

The Nissan dream garage was a set at Sony 99% of what you see was CGI (not the cars but the background) all added after the initial photography. Les Cannaday supplied several of the cars in the dream garage commercial and photo, and was on hand for the filming. He can give you specific details.

The cars in Gardena (which I got to see on several occasions), were sold or are on hand at the lane museum, almost of them that were marked for sale went to employees who had the first shot at them, a small few went to private parties.

Zulater works for Nissan, is a huge advocate of the early Datsuns and has relocated back to Tennesee with Nissan corporate. His explanation is correct.

Now sadly Nissan sold several cars that they should have kept, and kept several they should have sold...but they did not know or pay attention to what they were doing...and they did not consult with the people who knew the cars.

Sadly a large amount of historical "items" of significance have just vanished too...Some of which I have seen on ebay. Some of which will probably never be recovered.

I will get off my soap box now.

And that post is one more reason to think that 'DRBall' is a xenophobic simpleton.

And that is why I love the Brits! Hey Alan.

I believe the #46 510 was on display at the Runoffs this year in Topeka.
