HAM8URGER Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I'm looking for something fairly nice. Don't care about paint but would like the body to be in mostly good shape. Would like decent interior... Anyone have anything? Pics please :) Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Ok I'll even consider ones that are in semi-rough shape as long as they aren't REALLY rusty Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 And I'll take it in 2 or 4 doors with or without blown motor/trans/whatever Link to comment
71DIMER Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 You willing to have it shipped out to you? There's plenty of 510's available out here in California...talk to James Johnson (510keeper)! :) Link to comment

HAM8URGER Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Yes I'll pay to ship. Please send me suggestions Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 From the looks of previous sales on here it seems like 5k should get me a pretty clean roller right? I'm new to the 510 so help is appreciated Link to comment
racerx Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 getting harder to find a decent one for $5K..and have you also considered the cost of shipping? when I say decent, meaning nothing major..potential of becoming a daily driver. I do agree that there's quiet a few in Calif. but getting harder, specially a 2 door. Link to comment
racerx Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 this one went down a lot from orig. price LA area. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/cto/3686134017.html Another one I saw on Craigslist, Fresno for like $4,500. These 2 will give you an idea what these cars are going for and like I said you will have to more than likely pay for shipping, maybe $700 --less or more, depending how far...maybe call some shipping places and see what ging rate is...

racerx Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 here's one for $6,500: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/3687417812.html Link to comment

racerx Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 takes time..be patient...check out other Datsun sites. Check major Craigslist cities...good luck. Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Well i finally found one! '71 L20 etc.etc. ZERO rust, STRAIGHT BODY! It was a little over my budget but I think it was a great deal for $5,700... My brother in law tore down, cleaned, re-assembled the carbs and no over-exaggeration... runs perfectly. i dont have a good camera but here are the pics that the seller took for the add, and then the last two are with my bros phone :P <a href="http://s130.photobucket.com/user/blahblahmilbury/media/image_zps0caf73f5.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p265/blahblahmilbury/image_zps0caf73f5.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo image_zps0caf73f5.jpg"/></a> Here she is getting picked up In the driveway! Letting my bro drive it as is for a little while, then the build will commence! Thanks for looking Link to comment
izzo Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Best color ever on a datsun :rofl: Love it man. 5700 shipped? I don't think it was too over the top on price really. Dual side drafts, clean and straight. Coulda bought a shell or turd and spent more than that fixing it up... this ones ready to run Link to comment
bonvo Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 i was about to say when i saw the title for 5 k you can get a damn nice car glad to see that you did Link to comment
racerx Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 $700 over the budget is good deal...good going in finding one. They are getting harder to find. Link to comment

paradime Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Just Curious, Why were you looking for a roller before you got this fine specimen? Link to comment
HAM8URGER Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Just Curious, Why were you looking for a roller before you got this fine specimen? Well I was willing to take anything as long as it wasn't rotten. Just thought that maaaaybe someone would want to dump something that I wouldn't have to pull the motor out of. Settled for this :/ Link to comment
Ranman72 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Nice car Great find Link to comment
