r0p0doe Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 So my sister lives in AZ and is moving into her boyfriends place and one of his neighbors has this for sale and I think it's pretty sweet, body looks ok from what I can see in the pics and it's been repainted but everything seems to be there for the most part. I don't know anything about these so any info is appreciated along with what you guys think it's worth and so forth, i'd be buying it for my wife so she could have her own Datsun for the whole family to fit in lol... 2 Quote Link to comment

r0p0doe Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 what your feel on what he wants for it? I don't think it's over priced and I think I could probably get it for less than what they are asking after all it is an obo, but I'm in the process of moving and renovating so I'm on the fence on getting another project at the moment Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'd get it. Quote Link to comment
r0p0doe Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Would you guys buy it at 3k or shoot lower? Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'd find out a little bit about it before paying that much.. run and drive? Electrical issues? Braking/suspension problems? Quote Link to comment
r0p0doe Posted February 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'd find out a little bit about it before paying that much.. run and drive? Electrical issues? Braking/suspension problems? That's what im trying to do, according to seller it drives but as someone stated earlier temp needle is stuck in H and it looks like it could have a blown head gasket...

r0p0doe Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 I should be getting more pics and details from my sister today so will see what happens, still looking around to do research but can't seem to find much about them. Hopefully it doesn't have any bad damage to it seems like it may be missing some trim, the wife is ok with getting it so we "may" be adding another car to our family... Quote Link to comment
67411sss Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Does the neighbor think it's rare? When was it last on the road? Don't kid yourself about parts and getting her roadworthy. Start at $500 and gauge the reaction Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Make sure everything on the outside is there, it's nearly impossible to find parts for these cars, Greg bought one for parts a few years back as I recall. We have/had one around here for sale for several years, he wanted a lot of money for it, the problem he had was he kept advertising it as a Datson, I suggested he spell the Datsun name correctly, it came up a couple more times on craigslist, and I have not seen it come up since, maybe it was sold, I don't know, that was a few years ago now. Another one came up in Canada recently(last year), Zchopper was considering buying it, it was the only one in the western half of Canada, I don't know if Zchopper bought it, but I don't think so, you could message him and ask.
