datrod Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Well looks like I'll be adding a 520 to my collection of datsuns. A 1966 L520 P/U. The guy wants $500.00 for it. Says it runs and has new interrior. I don't even know what color it is. Don't really care. Going to take my truck & trailer down on Wednssday and pick it up. I'll keep you guys posted, And as soon as I can I'll put some photos up. Can't go wrong for $500. Right? Quote Link to comment

nismopu Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 most of the 520's I have seen or worked on were fairly solid and rust free. I wonder if the build quality and or paint process was better in the begining? Quote Link to comment

RacnJsn95 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 I'd rather have the Chevy Luv! I hate the 520 single head light front end. That's just me though. Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 I'd rather have the Chevy Luv! I hate the 520 single head light front end. That's just me though. I gotta agree!! Although it is a lot better than the 520 with 4 headlights!! To each there own!! :) Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted December 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Well I picked up my new truck last night. It's 1969 pl521 The guy had no Idea what it was. Over all not to bad, I was able to drive it on the trailer, Has a nice new front bench seat, New windshield, New front tires, A little rust but not bad. $500.00 I think I did good. I'll let it sit for awile I just have to many cars right now to start another project. Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted December 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 How do you confuse a 66 w/ a 69? HaHa gotta love PO's. Does it have the J 13 or an L 16? and........pics please :D I have no idea why he thought it was a 66. The door tag says 1969 PL521. The guy was sure. He was like NO It'S A 66. Im lookin at the door tag, well it says right here 1969. As soon as I looked at the head lights. I said I think this is a 521. It has the j 13 motor. I'm going to put a l 20B. I'll take some photos tomorrow. The thing is runnin 30x9.5 15 tires in the back. Looks funny as hell. The wheels must be off a 6 lug chevy. Thry are really wide. I think I'll keep them on Quote Link to comment
RacnJsn95 Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Is there no title for it or something? How could the guy not know it was a 69? What's the title say? Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted December 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Is there no title for it or something? How could the guy not know it was a 69? What's the title say? No title. It's been off the system for 10 + years. Quote Link to comment
