if a site is good-it's the least one can do.suprised more don't. and if we don't-there's no guarantee for the future. if i sold it on ebay-i'd pay them fees,paypal fees,and deal with an abundant # of stupid questions. so getting to sell here is a privilege i'm more than happy to donate to. hell-the entertainment value of the insomniacs alone is worth it........... :rofl:

That is a 1973 ONLY 510 Front bumper, just for your info...........

 

What exactly makes that a '73 only? Fitment, or style? My question is would it physically fit on 68-72 510s?

The bolt spacing on the front bumper mounts was different on the 73 model. In 73, the gov't increased the mph crash rating of bumpers and Datsun had to beef it up and add larger bumper overriders. The threaded hole for the bumper overrider it is a giveaway as to identifying the 73 bumper.

 

Physically, the bumper is the same size but you would have to do some cutting and welding to get it to mount to the stock 68-72 mount location.

 

I have only had one 73 510 and I parted it out years ago. I should have paid more attention to it but it was quite a few years ago.

 

I learned the hard way about this one year only bumper. I also had an NOS one that I sold to a guy for good money and had to buy it back when it didn't fit his car.

 

There are several things that were different on the 73 model.

 

The 2 door was the only model available and the doors on it were beefed up for side impact. The wiper and light sw and the heater control panel had fiber optic lights in them. The bumpers were different and a few other things that I am not remembering right now.
