Dattokai Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Just got this 521 from my neighbor. He had it sitting in his backyard for nearly 9 years minimum, maybe more. The hooks, side markers have been shaved. I think the locks on the inside have been shaved also. I'm calling this 521 'Mystery' because the only vin on it is the one in the engine bay, but mytoy521 told me there's one on the frame so I'll check that out too. You thought I was out of the truck game, didn't you? Photos!!! Quote Link to comment
Dattokai Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Can anyone identify what center console that is? The carbon fiber is for door panels. The wipers work, lights, water tach, etc. Quote Link to comment
Dattokai Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 This was the first thing I noticed. The doors close so nice and easy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrLja3LleLo Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Oldie but a goodie. Nice save. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 My guess would be that it is a 1968 datsun 521, as it has the 520 taillights. Don't loose that red 4 way knob, very desirable. Quote Link to comment

Dattokai Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Good lord man, needs lowered lolz That will be done, but more focused on getting it running. Been told that there's no motor problems and just needs a new battery. Also, wheels. Quote Link to comment

It's next to the starter on top of the frame rail, it will be there unless someone ground if off. I also agree with "izzo", it needs to be moar loar. :lol: :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment

konig209 Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 You guna keep that behemoth of a rear bumper on there? Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 You need to make your photos smaller, the files are to big, I am not talking about the size of the photo, it locks some of our computers up. If you make them smaller, they will likely load way faster into the photo hosting service also. Quote Link to comment
Dattokai Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 You guna keep that behemoth of a rear bumper on there? For now, yes. You need to make your photos smaller, the files are to big, I am not talking about the size of the photo, it locks some of our computers up. If you make them smaller, they will likely load way faster into the photo hosting service also. Will work on that. Or it may be your connection, it loads perfectly normal for me.

Laecaon Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 It loads fine for me too, but they are posted too large for people with DSL or Dial up. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 It loads fine for me too, but they are posted too large for people with DSL or Dial up. I have century link, and them photos lock me up every time. I don't normally have issues. Quote Link to comment
XXL Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 It's next to the starter on top of the frame rail, Can you elaborate on this? Perhaps a pic of one? Maybe with a PM so I don't overly-hijack the OP's thread. I jumped through MANY hoops to get mine registered because the (idiot) guy at the DMV insisted that the VIN plate on the firewall wasn't a VIN plate because it didn't have enough numbers (yeah, I know... but he didn't, and he had the clipboard, which made him "right").

Telkwa Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 I copied the first image to my desktop, then asked for Properties. 3041 X 2028 pixels, 740 kB. Way too much. Set the camera to 1024 X 768 or lower. That's plenty for online viewing. Quote Link to comment
