Remember when Nissan was called Datsun?

14JUN2025, the Idaho State Veterans Home in Pocatello, Idaho, put on a car show and barbeque to honor the veterans.

In December 1941, Japan attacked U.S. military assets on the island of O’ahu, Hawaii. By 1945 the United States defeated and occupied Japan. During the middle of the so-called Cold War, Japan invaded the U.S. by ‘dumping’ subsidized automobiles onto the U.S. market.

Today, the old Datsun 510 is still sought after by rice-burning racers and collectors.
