I don't care who you are, that is a damn fine collection of automotive history.

Randy’s a great guy and a good friend. His collection is truly amazing. I feel honored to have one of my old car in his collection.

I love hearing a person talk who has a passion for a specific manufacture of car, this guy has such an insane level of knowledge for Datsun/Nissans its insane and seriously what an amazing collection!

I’m a simple guy, I see Datsun, I click immediately.

My jaw would slide all over the floor if I ever got to see this collection

I'm a simple man. I see a 1 hour 20 minute Hoonigan AutoFocus video, I make a nice vanilla latte, take the family for an evening walk, put the kids to bed, tidy the kitchen and TV room, make a bowl of popcorn, crack a cold nitro stout, put my feet up, and press play.

A 1:20 hour episode and I loved every minute of it. Thank you everyone who brought this episode to life.

Don’t let your wife catch you watching this, clear your browse history!

GREETINGS FROM COLORADO, LARRY! Thank you so much for this series. I grew up in CT in the 60's and 70's and you and Randy have provided memories that, because I inhaled in the 60's and 70's...were LONG gone. I've had to trim my Hoonigan watching time down to essentially just you. Since the old garage, Ken Block, Scotto, you and the guys (and a few gals) came into being there's just so much stuff that NObody can keep up with all that they woulda, coulda, shoulda wanna watch. Your sense of history, your cars, your shoots are always as good as 'it' gets. All that I want and can handle. So. Thank you so much to you and your crew...AND everyone at everything Hoongan.

"Helen Keller could hear this car" lmaoooooo

I remember seeing those GTP cars at Sears Point. I was just a kid in high school and I was watching the cars come out of the Esses, going into the hairpin. I literally said "you can see the downforce". The tunnels under the car were amazing to see in action. The RealTime Acuras were there as well in a support race. What a day!

Thank you, you guys! It's great to finally "meet" Randy. I've seen so many of his cars at ZCG. I get emotional every time I hear my friends Rob and Josh mentioned in all the different nissan/datsun videos and write ups. Proud to be a part of the Z Car Garage family!!!!!

Great interview bro! Randy is as good a story teller as he is a collector. Very down to Earth fellow and super nice to meet in person also.

i loved every second of this. it speaks so much to who i am and not just what but why i love the things i love, and all that came before me paved the way for me to love cars like this at all. Incredible. Im so glad that Randy not only has all these cars but the stories and artifacts with them. Gosh. And Thanks for documenting all of this. This was truly wonderful and spoke to my soul in many ways hard to encapsulate. Thank you.

I could’ve spent a day watching this interview. Seriously fascinating. Appreciate you Larry bringing this collection to light.

I cherish these videos. Larry really allows people to express themselves about there cars. These stories are priceless. Very well done!

I just found this video today. I have been a Datsun fan since the early 70's, and am thrilled someone is taking good care of these iconic masterpieces. I did have to pause when they began talking about the 620 Kingcab. There is a lot of misinformation concerning year models. I have even had several so-called Datsun experts who have tried to convince me the Kingcab started in 1977, along with the 5 speed transmission. As a 19 year old, in June of 1976, I purchased the first Kingcab sold in Chattanooga, Tn from Standefer Datsun. It was Eggshell white, with a 4 speed, and was titled as a 1976 truck. I was told by Buzz Standefer there would be no 5 speed trucks until the 1977 model year, which was due in November or December of 1976. He told me all 1976 Kingcab trucks were either 4 speed or automatic. I currently own a truck ( a 4 speed), that was manufactured in June of 1976, and has been titled as a 1976 truck since new. There are probably only a handful of true 76 Kingcabs left, and I think it is important that there is distinction. The only way I have been able to find that differentiates these trucks is the center console, and 5 speed tranny. My current truck has the correct 76 console, and that is the first thing I look at if someone claims to have a 76 truck. Maybe I am nitpicking, but as these vehicles go up in value, it is important, and there aren't many people left with first hand experience with them. Over the years I have owned 8 620 trucks, 4 of them have been Kingcabs, and have logged nearly 1 million miles in 620 trucks. I can honestly say that owning and driving a 620 is the most fun I have ever had in something with 4 wheels and a steering wheel. That includes cutting my teeth on go-karts, farm equipment, a Z-car, and trucks and cars of all shapes and sizes. There is nothing like getting into a stoplight match with a Super duty, a Duramax, or some other unsuspecting victim, starting off in second gear sort of easy and holding second gear to 60 mph (about 6700 rpm), and watching the other driver beating on their steering wheel. But the most fun is on a twisty road. Yeah, I know a 510 or Z will eat my truck alive, but very few people expect a little truck to handle like a kart. The coolest thing thing is that you can run through the gears, like you are in a race, and the cops don't even pay attention. Fun stuff!

Not bored at all, watched it all and I loved every minute of it. Thanks for sharing!

What an amazing collection. Randy is a great curator of Datsun/Nissan. I had a 510 in the late 70's. Love my Infiniti G coupe today. Well shown. Thanks

I was one of the first guys to sign up for one of the Vintage Z's back before they actually started selling them. The Houston Chronicle actually interviewed me for an article, asking questions like "What attracts you to the Z and why do you want to buy one of these>" I found out a few weeks later that they wanted $25k for the car. Being a young guy with very little money to spare I had to back out of the deal. Man do I wish I would have figured out how to pull it off. But, I wouldn't have been able to do the car justice. It would have sat outside and rusted in an apartment parking lot. I finally got my '72 240z in 2008 and have been restomodding it ever since. It will probably go to my son when I'm gone.

I love this.. your intros are always amazing. Keep it up!!

Only an 1 hour and 20 mins? Too short! :D Great content!

The most least boring vid I’ve seen in ages !! Larry u ask good questions and engage with ace people.. keep up the good work 😃😀😁

Wow great collection & great stories behind each cars - Great video ❤

I love how Larry meets new car people and those car people just give larry more car people to go meet. Obviously it’s networking but it just sends larry on this wonderful content goose chase.

Its just amazing and I enjoyed watching this in all its fullness. Nissan\Datsun collectors dream.

Omg, I died hysterically laughing when you gave him credit and opened pandora's box on memorabilia, jfc, dude was a flood gate 😅 kudos on respectfully controlling the flood, bro

Only 2 minutes in to the video and already pressed the like button. Love the old Nissan/Datsuns. Had a 2001 model Nissan1400 Champ in SA (extended life 70s era Sunny 1200 pick up). Most fun I ever had in any car, especially in the wet.

I seriously thought this was Adams collection. Happy to see someone else out there is as devoted to this era as he is.

Awesome video thanks guys always?been a Nissan guy love to have a 95/96 with the VGDETT way ahead of its time

Adam Carolla has a sweet collection too

my man is a total 911 and datsun guy. totaly my favourite 2 cars... mad respect\

Great video! Just put my 280 rear end back together and learned a few things.

Watched and shared and even discussed a bit, Thank You for Sharing the Enthusiasm!

Great film Larry, I loved this owners stories

What a fun and cool collection to have. Great tour 🤘🏼👊🏻

That model car is so freaking cool, the builder is on another level especially for the time period it was done in.

Larry awesome video! Beautiful Datsun collection. Randy nicely done man.

Hands down your best episode larry. It was spinning me out when he was talking about peter brock. It took me a while to realise that american peter brock is a different person from australian peter brock!

You know its Legit when he rattles off over 50 different names by heart

Thank you for sharing, astonishing collection

Unbelievable collection! Subscribed, and looking forward to more!

Slamming S30 life to the floor boards. Larry who knew you would be the DATSUN " GLUE" that brings all the Datsun Collections ,together! What an Important, role, you have stumbled on. For a Z GUY to globe trot , for Z cars and Z collections. I'm glad it's you ,Larry. You have put the time in when JDM Culture was starting to get recognized, but your just as much, a part , of making it what it is today. Thank You Larry Chen !

Love Seeing These Old Cars Really Is Amazing How Beautiful They Are

Nice! Michael Eberhart is a friend as well, love that this is a small world still

Z31's seem to be gaining more popularity as of late! For what used to be the most unpopular Z chassis, it's great to see them getting some much deserved love!

At the end Larry must have done 4 hours overall on this amazing collection. And we love every minute of it... 😎👍 Btw: I can really appreciate when Americans correctly pronounce German words... 🇩🇪

Beautiful collection

This is what we called Collection. I love you man!.

I could watch this for 4-5 hours easily awesome video and cars 🤘🏻

You have a very nice Z collection there, I actually worked for Pierre Z when they were doing the restoration program for Nissan, so there's a probability that I worked on that yellow/grees original that you showed. I hope that you keep that collection alive and road worthy for a long time . 👍

Love these long shop tours

This was awesome

I could listen to randy's stories all day.

Yes, seeing the collection was awesome. Hearing all the details, facts and stories took it to another dimension. Very interesting from minute one to the last second. Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge.

Love these Nissan videos !!!!!!

Awesome collection & awesome guy as well

Wow, there’s no words to describe this car collection. Wow. The owner is such a cool dude too. Damn.

DATs-IT, it's a DATSUN...super nice collection !!! Thank u Randy & Larry!

Damn. Wat a collection!!!!

This may not mean much to authentic car enthusiasts... I created the original #46 Z livery in Forza Horizon years back. I spent over 30 hours creating custom logos and assuring accuracy. To this day, it still stands as the most detailed #46 Z John Morton livery within the Forza Horizon series. I appreciate this video on a level that I rarely experience. Saved. Shared. Subscribed.

Wow this so cool love the datsun

Just SO AWESOME 😎

Secy! I love this!

We need more Datsun/ Nissan enthusiasts. Datsun and Nissan cars are awesome and beautiful.

Amazing and very informative info for Datsun and Nissan seekers 🙂

Thank you larry

Love to make a trip to his collection

Awesome!!!

This collection deserves a part 2 down the road....

Legend amongst legends.....

Bruh..... I've only seen one 350z Nismo in person it was black and sounded unreal!! That Nagaro Red 350z Nismo is my DREAM Nissan 👍👍👍 What an amazing guy and epic collection!! One of a kind both of them 👍

NICE ONE

I Love this video !!

That Datsun bulletside is sick!

this dude sounds like the best guy, especially with returning the plaque to his friend

The 1990 GTP chassis were built at Jim Chapman Developments in San Clemente Ca. Jim's shop also built the 962 chassis that Jim Busby Racing used to Win the 24 Hours of Daytona. I sold a fresh Nissan GTP motor to someone in Georgia 20 years ago, wonder if could be the same group.

So many badass wheels and old school paint jobs..

I had a 1975 280z that I rebuilt which I called it the bondo buggy because when I got it the only thing that didn't have bondo was the hood.It was so much fun to drive but I am 6'4" and was almost impossible to have sex in but we gave it our best try.One great thing about that car is you could give it an alignment with a tapemeasure as long as the struts were perfect.The engine was a pleasure to rebuild and the first time I fired it up after the rebuild it was music to my ears

I really am starting to get interested in your podcast Larry!The reason being is that my older brother Don was a mechanic for Datsun back in the early seventies.

Love his passion on car, very nice car collection…!

32:25 “I mean Helen Keller could hear this car” 😂😂😂

Que gusto saber que el mundo datsun es grande y famoso. Felicitaciones.

So awesome

Amazing

Insane collection.

holy shit amazing cars and a super cool owner, perfect combination WOW what a collection and to me the memorabilia is the best part

moving next door to this nexus this is how its done... speechless
