DanielC Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I am going to disagree with Wayno on this one. I think the fenders with reflectors instead of side marker lights are a little more rounded on the front. The side was flattened out to accommodate the larger, and flatter marker light, on the later fenders. But I could be wrong. Every one of my 521 trucks has some front end damage. Quote Link to comment
mrbigtanker Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 No there the same,just marker lights change it up,even all the side Datsun emblems from the 1300 to 1600 to the rare 1500 ones me and way no got all fit the same pin holes also. Quote Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 They are the same shape. I cut a square in a 69 fender to put a rectangle red side marker in my 71 and you'd never know the difference. Quote Link to comment

Hmm, I have these as the truck is J15 engine. Where do you get the fenders? All I can get in here are PRC made for 180.- EUR a piece and these cost more to but on the truck than the whole truck.

datzenmike Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 The '69 have 'arrow' shaped amber front marker lights. From '70 on they are rectangular shape. They should otherwise be the same. Quote Link to comment

DanielC Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 "The '69 have 'arrow' shaped amber front marker lights." * *In Canada. This is a 1969 521 USA front fender. This is the best picture I have of a 1970-1971 521 USA front fender. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Daniel, are you saying the US '69 didn't have an arrow marker? J13 I found in Saskatchewan. Don't remember the year...'68? Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 We never had arrow markers on 521s in the USA Dmike, they went from round reflectors to rectangle illuminated type.

DanielC Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 No arrow marker lights in the USA, unless they were imported by a private party. I am not sure about trying to get a 1968 or 69 521 outside of the USA, into the USA. Might be as much of a hassle as trying to get a Skyline into the country. And not near as rewarding. I have a 1969 521, reflector fenders, and L-16. I also have two pair of damaged fenders off 1969 521 trucks. This is part of my collection of left fenders for 521 trucks. I have acquired more since this picture was taken. Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Easy to get skyline or 521 into USA. There are no DOT restrictions after 25 years. But would be even easier to import two fenders. Quote Link to comment
DanielC Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Maybe a "King Rat" can bring some arrow marker light fenders to Canby 2014! Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Don't have any. :lol: The 510 arrows are close but not the same. Been playing around with the part numbers and yes there is a Canadian fender with different part number than the same year US. The difference would be the holes for mounting the lamp or the reflector. Quote Link to comment
