620z Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Thought you might enjoy the description on this CL ad. This is the mentality we deal with hear in Florida. Its not just the price but the misleading descriptions. The only one in the US for sale? You won't find another king cab ever? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I own the only one in Canada then. Dual exhaust? Maybe has motor swap? Quote Link to comment
620z Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 He has multiple ads in multiple cities and it doesn't mention a swap. Just mentions that the carb needs rebuilt and the engine leaks oil. Quote Link to comment

JoeCool Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Good grief! Some people think their old clunkers are worth a damn fortune! I am all over Craigslist recently trying to find my daughter a cheap, reliable car. You wouldn't believe some of the crap on there and the prices! And I don't mean something like A rare 1970 Chevelle SS 4speed, LS454 either. And watch calling Datsun prices insane around here... I got maliciously attacked once for saying a damn grille for a 510 wasn't worth $10,000,000! :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Craigslist are open season here.... unless it's a member. Selling and buying is all now done in the CLASSIFIEDS. Opinions on price or condition are only allowed here or the classifieds if a seller requests it. Quote Link to comment
sprocket_jim Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 That is a funny ad. If true, then I just gave away two of my highly "rare" kingcabs. :w00t: Seriously though, things are just sometimes getting out of control and having fun tinkering on these old cars shouldn't be breaking the bank (IMHO). I remember the days that no one wanted a Datsun and when a VW bug could be had for $100. Have you seen the climbing prices? Ridiculous. I have many parts still for sale and trying to pass them on to someone that can use them so please, if anything is overpriced, let me know. Quote Link to comment
denmarkboy Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Good grief! Some people think their old clunkers are worth a damn fortune! I am all over Craigslist recently trying to find my daughter a cheap, reliable car. You wouldn't believe some of the crap on there and the prices! One of the reason for the price jacking right now is because every car flippin / dealer all know its tax time . They prey on this time of year to double or triple their money. There are still deals out there you just have to work harder to find . Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Just found a KC for a friend of mine 3 or 4 weeks ago 5 speed a 70k on the clock....... we musta found the second to last one :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
Guest Rick-rat Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Every one that has any Datsun is 1 of a kind because of what you have done to them, so they are all rare. That's probably the only one he has for sale in the states. Just remember a lot of drugs come from Florida and he must have a pretty good supply Quote Link to comment
Yellow_Feva Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 These are actually pretty hard to find in Florida and every time they pop up they sell quick. The price is a little high but didn't the 78 come with front disc brakes, 5 speed tranny and electronic ignition? Quote Link to comment
zerickk Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Came across this insane ad last week Quote Link to comment
Radim Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Came across this insane ad last week Is that Canadian Dollars? If it is, isn't like like 200$? Quote Link to comment
maltese Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Is that Canadian Dollars? If it is, isn't like like 200$? Pretty sure Canada's $ is worth more than the U.S. dollar, currently. Quote Link to comment
jvb5577 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/4395760499.html This one had me rolling. "1972 521 DATSUN Rare truck really really hard to find single cab short bed." Hmmm, ALL of them are single cab short beds.... Had this posted in the classifieds but here seems more appropriate. Not a 620 but still funny stuff Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 CAD is worth 95 cents currently http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=1&From=USD&To=CAD Quote Link to comment
