reese Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I am looking for a 510 wagon and was wondering if there are any other Datsun people that live near me. Erik in PDX NE Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 There are quite a few 510s there. And even one on CL/eBay/here in the classifieds. There is a NWDE meeting happening at Stark Street Pizza right now as well. Get down there quick! Quote Link to comment
reese Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I have been looking for the right car for a few months and think I found it today. Looked it over briefly today, going back later for a better look and hopefully pick it up tomorrow. Non modified 510s are hard to find! Now to start modifying! Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Post pics when you get your wagon. Like I said-Datsun meeting at Stark Street as we speak. Also, Red Door Meet is tonight at 6:30 under the Morrison? on the SE side. Quite a few Datsun folk will be at the Red Door. Whatever bridge City Liquidators is at. Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Oh you're the one that's been posting that WTB on CL for the past few months? 1 Quote Link to comment

philcas1987 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Better not be blue with dark blue slots. Modified wagons are the best! Quote Link to comment
reese Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Yeah I posted wtb all up and down the best coast. Got a few bites but not much. Good wagons that are for sale in the PNW are hard to find. There are a lot in so- cal and I was about to have one shipped up here but found a local one finally. It's all original, two owner 69 wagon. It's the one in my profile pic. Going to check it tonight and hope to buy tomorrow. This is my second wagon and I had a 620 also. Here are pics of my orange wagon from forever ago: http://datsun510.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=8882&title=my-wagon&cat=500 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Pull the trigger. If its a good wagon, it won't last long around there Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Nice man. My wagon might be too modified. Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Go for it, wagons are awsome. Otherwise ask them if they woudl trade for a pathfinder ;) lol Quote Link to comment
reese Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Checked it out and it's going down tomorrow. Another wagon in my life. Gonna drive it around until it starts raining then into the garage to get ZX struts/coil overs/brakes/rear blocks and some new wheels. I will start a project page when I get more pics. I would still like to meet any 510 folks in Portland to hang out and work on cars. Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Was that one in McMinnville? I'm in Newberg. Swing by if you feel like it. Quote Link to comment
reese Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 It was in NE Portland off Portland Hwy/30. It was in the driveway forever, I stopped and asked if it was for sale and they said yes! Not listed anywhere. This guy owned it for 10 years and bought it from the original owner. It has the service records for first 20k miles, original owners manual, keys, gas cap etc. all stock except Weber carb. Only 61k original miles. I am picking it up tonight and will post pics tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment

reese Posted August 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 I will get up with y'all soon. Is the Stark St pizza thing a regular meet up? If so when, I looked on the calender but didn't see it. I will post a real project thread when I have more time but here is the pail yellow wagon, along with my sold orange wagon and 620. I did all the work on both. More later. Erik in NE Portland http://s1276.photobucket.com/user/aoitoriwagon/library/ 1 Quote Link to comment

reese Posted August 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 I wrote a long ass post with the story and somehow lost it...but gonna keep the car simple. For now wash it and clean everything up. It's all original, 62k miles, original key fits everything, manuals and service records. It's pretty clean, no rust except surface. Original motor and drivetrain, never touched except a Weber long ago. It runs and drives good. It's in the garage waiting for a full check out, clean and tune up. The fall plan is shortened ZX struts and brakes with coil overs, bump steer spacers and rubber. I will add a flipped leaf in the back and get some angled blocks. Probably ZX wheels or ?. Fix what's broken (not much) and drive it. I need a 69 original hatch emblem, heater core valve, choke knob, drivers side fender turn signal, six spoke ZX wheels.. I will post more later.
