Jayden71 Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 So long story short, I just bought my son his first Datsun. My dad bought me my first datto back in '94. When my father in law passed away he left me his 521 in his will. So I find it pretty neat to be able to buy my son his first Datsun today. :thumbup: First of all I want to give a huge thanks to the many people involved in making this possible. All the blood sweat and tears shed by Eagle Adam, Draynor, Red Banner and Farmer Joe for going over to Portland with me to get it! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!! Details, 79 King Cab with factory 5 speed. L20b that now has weber 32/36 and W58 peanut head. She drives soooooo nice! Ok, lees words more oics! When Draynor first bought her New tailgate and lenses installed After new wheels and tires, electrical sorted out mostly, new brakes, broken head bolt fixed, rear brake shoes installed and everything bled went for first test drive SUCCESS!!! Moar pics! Engine before and after Driving home with intermittent wipers! :thumbup: A few rolling pics Also got some other parts for her. 2 like new fenders and front valance. Pics of those tomorrow. I do have the front bumper in the bed. Needs new bumper mounts on the front. Well here is the most important pic of all...my son with his first Datsun!! BEST DAY EVER!!!!! Quote Link to comment
Jayden71 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 This truck was a blast to drive today! Not one single hiccup or leak of any kind. Not bad for a truck that sat for untold amount of years in the Pacific Northwest. 1 Quote Link to comment
