Goose52 Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share #13 Posted September 18, 2012 .....I get some great reactions when I tell them it was my 'college car'. Bonzi Lon At the time that I bought my Z - some folks called it my "shipping crate." Translation: When you "shipped-over" (re-enlisted), you bought a crate. It was a popular term at the time (in the Marines at least) since nearly everyone blew their re-enlistment bonus on cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose52 Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share #14 Posted September 19, 2012 Just a quick note of thanks to the Board administrators, who must have known that my 40th anniversary was approaching, for featuring my Z on the home page! In other words - duh, I just noticed that the photo for the "Datsun Z Events" section on the home page is from the 2007 Motorsports Nationals - my car is the silver 240 in the photo. Pretty cool!
