Alchemist Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Greetings and welcome Daryl, I found this recently on CL - should be near you! Happy Holidays! Ernie http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/3480744272.html '77 datsun 710 wagon, stock. 65k miles. - $3900 (santa rosa)Date: 2012-12-15, 12:27PM PST Reply to this post jrcgk-3480744272@sale.craigslist.org[?] this wagon is rust free & has a lot of potential. (I would not have invested the time and money into it, otherwise!) Auto trans, A/C, L18, brown interior. minor body damage to front fender, driver door, grill and hood edge (see pics in album) motivated me to meticulously strip/metalwork and repaint 75% of the body. plug-welded door mirror mounting holes and installed JDM fender mirrors (earlier style, chrome) I also have a new/used perfect grill with good stainless trim, as well. the paintwork is top notch, and would have cost 3-5k$ at any reputable shop. the roof, hatch, and one quarter are original paint. there is no overspray or poorly masked trim, seals, or jambs. in person, the car is very close to perfect. car starts and runs but original Carb is crap. I can swap a Weber 32/36 on it and it'll run like a dream. Engine compartment has yet to be detailed....my plan was to EFI (KA/SR) swap, and again, repaint if necessary. car has california title and will need to be smogged (we can negotiate/make that happen...with or without the weber) .I still have both the front and rear bumpers, ..but as some on the forum know, I built a custom steel frame/fiberglass shell rear bumper for the car. it fits quite nicely...& is the only one in existence. between the original purchase price, paint materials, and labor $ paid to my painter (not including any of my labor) I'm in about 3,500$. I also have a set of 15" epsilon mesh with a bunch of different offset lips (enough for six wheels 7" 8" & 9" widths)..originally paid 1,300$ for..might be willing to work a package deal...also some Nardi wheels and a 710 adapter..blah blah blahhttp://s281.beta.photobucket.com/user/h ... tsun%20710 more pics at: http://hectorschopshop.com/7701.html I have little time (hence selling off personal projects) so please, serious inquiries only. text or call and leave message 707-321820nine -Forrest Link to comment
