All 68s and 69s have that. And the valve cover is kinda rare, but the caps are a dime a dozen... ;) Quote Link to comment
pl521sss Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 pl521sss, Like what your doing to your 521! Shifter and rims are Sweet:D I notice one picture your door panels are there and another there gone:confused: are you reupholstering? Removed the door panel to install electric door actuator for the alarm (power lock). I still have the unmolested door panel, not going to do reupholstery on it. As you notice, I removed the carpet and left the nice shinny blue paint. Is taht valve cover the one with the screw in cap or the one with the 68 cap...you will know what you have (by that i mean if it is the non screw on cap style that is Rare..):) You mean these Valve Covers!!! There might be one or 2 more in the back storage. This is what happens when your a Datsun addict. Quote Link to comment

I agree though, we need more exterior shots :D Quote Link to comment

datsun dreamer Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Nice truck:D Be careful shiting:eek: Is it the picture, or was the "bulletSide" painted white? Quote Link to comment
pope_face Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 Nice truck:D Be careful shiting :eek: Do you happen to know something the rest of us don't? :rolleyes: It is a nice truck... Love the seats and door panel... Quote Link to comment
Voleurz Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 thanks for the kind words.. i know i love those seats i was told they were a factory option? yes i tried to paint the bulletside thingy white.. it turned out alright i suppose for first time paint work and rattle can. gunna do a better masking job on my new one and some body mount repair work. other then the 1 body mount my new one is in mint shape like the box barely has a scratch on the bed.. came with original warranty card and all manuals. will post pics of it shortly.. maybe even a project thread.

pl521sss Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 What's the reason their called bullet side anyway. It has the arrow like form from front to back but not bullet like. And what's the purpose of it being that way. To increase rigidity of truck or just unique design. Just Curious Quote Link to comment
pope_face Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 My vote lies with design... As for the term, I suppose "Arrowside" doesn't quite instill the same sort of confidance as "bulletside"... :D I can sort of see the bullet resemblance though... or, at least if you see it from like a front/side view...
