Hey Dave, I emailed my buddy Terry over in Jackson for you, so should know if he has one pretty quick!

PM sent!

See if you've got a British car repair/resto shop in your area, as many stock the cable conectors, aka a "trunnion". All you need to do, is make sure they fit into your linkage arm, cuz the cable simply pokes thru a hole, and has a "set screw" which tightens down & locks on to the cable.

Please post HERE, and I'll PM you, cuz that is working out great! I'll work on the "full" PM in box........... hang_510 PM sent!!

Now that's a cool rare manifold! Man, you'd have to run a small 4 bbl carb, huh??

At this point, both rear tail lamp panels are SOLD, but I'll let you know otherwise. Toyo Tech PM sent.

Lower front frame rails are off as a "unit", with about 2/3's of the inner fender well panels (top 1/3 cut off).

I am happy to say that parts from THIS shell, are going towards at least 3 repair/restorations at his point, and I hope 6-8 different projects in the end! Years ago, I sold off a classic Mini, rusty ol' shell (resto, I bought a brand new body shell), and the guy that bought it, later told me that "parts" from that ol' nasty shell went to 9 other Mini restoration projects!! I really get a kick out of it!!!!! :P Floor pans coming off.................

Ha, I was just gonna say, that Burnett's are good people! The company that I used to work for sold 'em MG & Triumph parts. That's a good lookin' car.....................ENJOY!! :cool:

The upper inner fender rails are now cut out of the shell. BOTH rails were cut out as a "box section", which includes the channel where the hood release cable passes thru on the left side. BOTH rails have a couple of broken upper fender screws. BOTH rails are straight with no rot. The LEFT side still has the upper corner......bottom of the upper A-pillar, windshield lower corner, hood hinge mount etc etc. The RIGHT side was carefully seperated by drilling out the spot welds, as I sold the lower A-pillar. $150 each + shipping..............LEFT side SOLD.

Hey Mark! I'll send a few pics via EMAIL. Thanks!

NOT MINE - I'm posting this for a friend of mine....................... http://kalamazoo.craigslist.org/pts/2879879728.html

Noooooooooo, you're NOT selling it! :( This truck is waaaaaayyyy cool!! I'll trade ya TWO very rare 1968 510 2 door project cars..............you know you want 'em. ;)

bump for the weekend!

I have PM'd both of you guys, so let me know! I'm not sure why PM's aren't coming thru. When I initiate a PM like this, I can go back & forth all day with the other guy! Anybody have any suggestions as to why some are having trouble PM'ing me?? Where's fisch.............he knows everything! :D I try to check this listing every day, so if anybody has any questions, I will respond!!

Man, they really want to bust this guy! Another cop just stopped by to take pics of all the parts! He also asked me to turn in a detailed inventory list, with values. I love the small world of classic cars & parts, cuz word just seems to get around..............caught from heresay from 3 hrs away!!

Not many Datsuns, cuz what were sold here in the Motor State back in the day (sales numbers nothing like the west coast!) all rotted away, but we have a relatively diverse culture here! :rolleyes:

Thought I'd share this, cuz I always get a kick out of catching a dirtbag! I had a junk Alfa Romeo Spider parts car outside in the parking lot last Fall (actually still out there). It sits next to a junk MGB, and a junk 510. One day I pull in, notice that the trunk lid was open, wander over, and all of the parts that were stuffed in there were gone! I figured that a scumbag stole the stuff to turn in for scrap, so I didn't bother with a police report........never see the stuff again. Thankfully, I had the Euro-spec dual Weber intake manifold (among some other parts) in my shop! Shouldn't have left the other parts in there, but damn, that crappy Italian stuff takes up my Datsun parts room in my shop!! Anyway, having a beer with some buddies last night, and one says "Hey, will you be at your shop on Saturday, cuz I'll be in the area? Oh yea, what are you doing over there? Picking up some Alfa parts (he is neck deep into Alfa's, poor slob!!) for a buddy of mine over in Detroit (3 hrs away), at that shop right around the corner from you! Huh?? Picking up Alfa parts?? Why would that shop (he's a nice Mexican guy, works on domestics & late model imports) have Alfa parts?? What kind of Alfa parts??" My buddy rattled off the list of parts that were stolen!!!! 2 + 2 = stolen parts!!!! I called the buyer in Detroit today, and explained that he was very likely buying stolen parts, and asked him for the sellers contact info, which he gladly gave to me. Unfortunately for him, he sent money via Western Union, cuz the guy kept badgering him, and said that he needed money to buy groceries. I would guess that the dirtbag seller found him on the internet, as an Alfa specialist, and called him. Once I had this info, I called the police, they sent over a really nice, cooperative officer, and he & I went over to the shop around the corner, where the seller had apparently left the parts. Turns out I have sold the shop owner parts before (I'm an auto parts guy here in town). The cop started out by saying that HE was not being charged, briefly explained the situation, but didn't name any names at that point, and asked him if the parts were on the premises. His first answer was very vague, but it was basically "No". The cop grinned, and explained in more detail, and the guy then quickly admitted "Oh wait, yea, I've got some parts for that guy (the seller) over in my other building." Cut to the chase............along with the rare Weber intake manifold (again, had that in my shop), I had a matching Euro-spec 2 pc dual downpipe cast iron exhaust manifold, and that was there in the pile of parts! Absolutely no doubt that these were my parts. Filled out a statement, loaded the parts up in my truck (I thought the cops had to keep stuff like this as evidence????), and the cops will pick the guy up for larceny. Yup, gotta press charges, cuz if I don't, he'll keep doing it. Will he come after me, if/when he gets out of jail..........who knows, but he is just a well known local drunk & drug addict, and the cop looked at me and said "Don't worry about him, I've arrested him 3 other times, he's just a drunk, looking for ways to make a quick buck, not a tough guy." Good enough for me!! I hope he shows up here one night. Always a great feeling, knowing some dumbass just got caught.................... :P

There's an SU specialist in Ohio, called Paltech, that might be able to help.................... http://www.paltech1.com/index.html

Hey, if the AutoZone shoes don't work, try my buddy Matt at Vintage Imports in Ohio, at 937-550-4509. He stocks lots of NOS Japanese parts...........LOTS! Ask for Matt, tell him TJ sent ya! Good luck! FYI, he really doesn't have any OEM Datsun/Nissan trim parts, but he has LOTS of NOS Beck Arnley, Vera, suspension, engine etc etc.

bump!

The transmission alone in that 1980 210 is worth $300-500 to the MG guys, especially if it in good shape. "Riverside" makes a kit to bolt that 5 speed trans up to the MG Midget/Austin Healey Sprite A-series engines, making a really nice swap for highway speeds. Drive it for a year, part it out! :lol:
