schassisowner Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Up for sale is my recently acquired 1985 nissan 720 pickup. The body is in pretty good shape, few small rust spots the worst is on the drivers side cab mount but it passed PA inspection. Inspected until July 2013. 131k miles on the z24 2wd drive train. Truck runs ok, but I never was able to get it to idle perfect, and I am still working on the mess that is the stock vacuum lines. (I think this weekend I am just going to rip them all off and start fresh using some of the diagrams on here and Nico) I was going to go with a weber and delete alot of the excess vacuum lines. The bed on this thing is absolutely solid! perfect for a nice little work truck. When i bought it, it was sitting for years and I put a decent amount of time and money into it. New: Clutch/Flywheel Cat back exhaust battery slave cylinder (yet to be installed) main relay (for the fuel pump) The truck still needs some love, and I don't really want to get rid of it but I just got a new job and the commute is too long to trust this on the beltway. still needs: carb adjusted, radio (doesn't have any audio right now) interior love (it's ratty but this is ratsun so :) I was going to work on the suspension down the road... It passed inspection but the shocks are pretty worn. I am located in York PA, or about 40 miles north of Baltimore MD. Asking 1250 as my ratsun price... which is about what I have into the truck, including the new parts and what not. I am pretty firm on the price; I do not need to sell but trying to downsize; since I already have project cressida, and I need a better daily driver that is better on gas. You can call or text at 717-968-7655 or PM me here.... I love this community and I will always stick around; but right now I just don't got the time to give this lil truck the love it deserves. pics thanks ya'll Link to comment

UNDERCOVER Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 If you were closer I would take it! but I'm all the way down in Florida, shipping would make it pointless. Good luck tho. Link to comment

pfregeolle Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 I saw this on craigslist, and am kinda surprised to see it on here! Do you work around Baltimore (you mentioned the beltway)? I work right near Arundel Mills and have been in the market for a beater, old Datsun or Nissan... Link to comment
schassisowner Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I just got let go on Thursday.... i dont know if Id trust it on the highway.... the carb is on its last leg.... although now that I am unemployed I suppose I have time to rebuild it and see if that helps at all :( Link to comment
schassisowner Posted March 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 bump 900 takes it!! the clutch still has some air in the system and the carb is on the way out but its a super solid body last chance before i look at a KAe and make it a project Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 I just got let go on Thursday.... i dont know if Id trust it on the highway.... the carb is on its last leg.... although now that I am unemployed I suppose I have time to rebuild it and see if that helps at all :( The Z24 has some quirky behaviors. There's lots of info here for fixing all the tiny problems that can make it hard to drive. It is a low pollution motor with lots of hoses that can be leaking but worst of all are the previous owners who remove or alter things (like vacuum lines plugged with a screw) and cause problems.
