datrod- JW, You and I go back more then 12+ years. Thanks for all the camaraderie over the years and cheers to the next 100+ years... what the heck... I'll be racing you in my walker:sneaky:

 

]2eDeYe - Thank you for what I was not able to do... The attachment. Feel free to ask me questions on the brakes (PM me if you want). Under hood shot I included in the link (BRE510) attached on page 1.

 

datzenmike - I think you are correct with the fender badge observation. The production date is 4/72 and as I have researched on the internet, I believe it should have come with the "Datsun 1600" fender badge. It doesn't bother me as it came that way when I bought it.

 

Again to all thanks for the compliments.

For all of you who find the write up for the feature a bit dramatic... I can't argue but for a guy who is 40 something years old, I already see the generation gap. And yes, I do believe they cater to the younger crowd. However Superstreet asked me if they could feature my truck in their magazine and I was honored and it all happened from the purchase of the wheel. It was not from any car show... Heck, as I say, when opportunity come a knocking, take advantage.

"OL YELLER" - Yes, I remeber meeting you and your son at the swapmeet. And yes, the W53 on Ol Yeller was the head you bought from me that day. Thank you for the compliments and I look forward to seeing you on the Jan 13th. I have been asked to bring the 510 so not sure if I'll be able to bring the truck.
