Ecotec Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Its a 68 510, no motor, tranny, hood, pretty rough, the guy is asking $1000, what do you think its worth? Quote Link to comment
chris-eightball Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Depends on your location. In Northwest area that car would be like 100-200 bucks if that. Back east area it could be 1000 dollars. I personally would not pay over 200 for it unless you love doing body work. Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Seriously $50 & he helps you push it to the tow dolly. Quote Link to comment

benzo Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 that person should pay you for taking it away. looks like more trouble than its worth Quote Link to comment
Ecotec Posted June 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 So i would probably have to replace both front fenders, rear fenders, rear end, trunk lid, hood, lots of bodywork, probably need to strengthen the body, does somebody make replacement fenders, front and back for these cars? link plz? So maybe $300 might be worth it Quote Link to comment
jnec510 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 i got a real good 4 door almost running for 400. you would be a retard to buy that scrap heep. mine is a 68 as well. its only worth its weight in scrap. an there is no lmc book for these cars. they dont make replacement panel you got to cut them out of another car.

jnec510 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 an that broken tail light lense will cost atleast 100.00 because that is a 68 only item. Quote Link to comment
aussiedat69 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 here in australia that would be a gem in the ruff 68 model very hard to find here they sell rolling shells here from $1500 aussie dollars thats about $1000 us dollars give or take and thats a bare shell !! i live in the wrong country nothing left here in oz unless u want to pay rip off prices :( cheers Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) I would pay about $100 for that car, only if the windshield was in good condition since they're annoying to find easily. That's still too much. There are always people trying to rip off others because they think they have a "rare" car and hence it must be worth something. There's a dipshit in Spokane who's been trying to sell a rolling chassis 510 for the longest time on craigslist, and he keeps wanting upwards of $750. The thing has no chrome left, looks about as bad, dented to shit all over. You need to check out the countryside, find a 510 that's been sitting in a field, but not on the coast due to the salt content. Or find one that someone else got and doesn't know how to fix. I got my running 510 with bent RR control arm from a buddy of mine who decided to fix his 240 instead. $400, and it ran with the original motor for a year before I blew the head gasket and built the race motor. Oh yeah, the 69 2 door I cut up (rusted way worse than that picture) netted me $19 and change. ;) All 1500 pounds of it. Edited June 9, 2009 by HRH Quote Link to comment
Byron510 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Man, that car is rough Quote Link to comment
onedayjake Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Not to mention he does not have a title for this car. It might not make a difference in your state, but here in Nebraska your pretty much screwed without one. Quote Link to comment
68 Datsun 51 DIME Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 Damn bro i got my 4 door 68 for 1500 and it was running ! And in good shape ! Quote Link to comment
SRSANDS Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 I cut up a shell for scrap money better shape than that and I bought it for 100, robbed the parts I needed and bye bye Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 i would rather take this for 1000 http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/1211844210.html Quote Link to comment
Wharf Rat Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 If that body was in Maine I would throw 400 bucks if the bottom is still solid 99.9% of all the old jap rigs that were sold out here have returned to mother earth:( Quote Link to comment
