Hey there Datsun fanatics! I'm here out of Southern Oregon and recently bought my "dream truck". For a mere $500 I bought this 1976 King Cab Deluxe. My love for Datsun started back in 1979-80, when my older brother (who was then in high school) began to build and restore his Datsun 510. As he progressed, he ran his car in autocross and slalom at the old Jack Murphy Stadium in San Diego ( now Qualcomm I believe). As I got my first ride in 1986, it was a handed down 1974 1200. Green, a little beat up, but fun! Second car, 75 B210 Hatchback. As I drove that, in rolls this pumpkin orange 620 that my Dad and Brother picked up. It was gorgeous! So, not long after that I decided that one day I myself, would build and drive a super sweet 620 of my own. Through the years I stayed true. I kept it all Nissan/Datsun.
To name a few I've had a Sentra, Pathfinder, Hardbodies (×3), 720s, a 1200, a B210, and my pride 2008 Titan Pro4x. I'm a Store Manager of our local AutoZone here and have always loved the industry.
So to make this long story short, I now have this 620 KC and a donor 87 d21. I stripped it all down to almost the bare bones and just got my engine stand to throw the old motor on while rebuilding from the ground up. Yes, we are all on budgets (For the most part) so I don't expect to make it a "show truck". I don't want to win awards or trophies. I just want it cruiseable with a show of my taste and love for all that is Nissan. I look forward to opinions and suggestions, looking at your rides and builds.
Thanks for adding me to your World
I'll try to post some pics when I figure out how to. Lol
