Z chopper Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 I am thinking of building a datsun 520 roadster pickup from the ground up, does anyone have a datsun 520 cowl, cab back and doors? I live in BC, Canada so the closer to me the better. I already have an idea for a frame Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Try Grahem just south of you. I think he's almost out of trucks but he's hardcore Datsun and probably knows someone who knows someone.... Also Rich in Sayward has some 620 trucks. Have you tried The Realm based loosely in Vancouver? Look up Mikey (mike Yarn) in Parksville. He has 510s but he may also know someone who... There's the Vancouver Island Enthusiasts VIDE in Victoria. http://www.vanisledatsun.com/index.php Nathen Penston has a 620 truck and may be able to help. Link to comment

Z chopper Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 there is a guy down in Mill Bay that has some 620 king cab stuff but I prefer regular cab and also like the older trucks, it might be easier to find 520 stuff than older 320 stuff Link to comment
Grahem Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 the guy in mill bay has a couple of my old trucks, nothing special just 78 620 kc's, i dont think i have ever seen a 520 in person or even heard of one on the island, there have been a couple 521's around and there was a 320 at a car lot in town for awhile but they wanted $4000 for it, i think saltair marine bought it up tho.anyways if ya end up going with a 620 ive got a shop full of parts lots of spare little hard to find pieces.btw what year 50 do you have? iv got an 83 and 2 84's Link to comment
