1971 Datsun 521

[Z chopper]

So, the last three photos. 

 

I was just wondering if there's an oem glovebox knob replacement?

What can i do temporarily to fill the cracks? black silicon or something?

And does anyone know where i can buy the felt like material used to guide the window?

 

Thanks, i was trying different things with the camera tonight, enjoy!

for the dash pad cracks either keep an eye out on here for a 520 metal dash or fibreglass/poly resin the cracks, though a number of years ago I did restore a few dash pads to like new condition. I have been trying to find the kit I used or atleast the stuff that was in the kit and start restoring dashes.

I have a nice dash pad and I also have 2 really nice vent frames with really nice rubbers,it ain't cheap but let me know if you want them.

Could you pm me some photos and a price?

[mrbigtanker]

give me some time i will get back with you on the pictures also do you want a locking glove box latch or the factory one,if i still have mine i will give it to you just send me a few bucks to cover shipping,i need a few days to look for it.

[Donedreamin]

I most certainly do!

So i drove over 600km yesterday, when i get the chance i'll upload all the photos but here's some teasers.

looks like a abandon truck next to the Historical site

 

 

be honest i love the patina

 

 

be leary of those thin carb adapters they can crack if overtighten and give bad idle leaks

[Donedreamin]

Whats the difference between side draft and top mount?

[piraterumm]

is that your cressida. that thing is sweet. i kinda want one down the road

[Donedreamin]

Yeah it is, thanks man. 

Great chassis, i swapped in a 7MGTE and R154. 

If you have any questions about those cars I know them inside and out!

nice look

 

is that a dog bowl on the front wheel?

[Donedreamin]

It could very well be a dog bowl!

I write a blog that covers more than my 521,

[mrbigtanker]

I sent you those photos,so yes/no.I have been holding for you.

[Donedreamin]

Sorry havn't been on here in awhile, priorities are elsewhere right now and unfortunately I won't be able to pick them up off you.

I just wanted to verify, I picked up the truck with a point style distributor (2 wires) Im just wanted to know which vehicle to reference when it comes to changing the cap and rotor. I know it's bigger then the OEM one, but not sure which motor/vehicle they come off of.

Going to put together a video this weekend, and report back!
