Our family's '73 610 goon

Recommended Posts

I bought this car a year or so ago, and haven't done much with it since.  I have had other projects in front of this one (my 521 for example)but now my wife's damn Suburban,& her Accord wagon are not reliable enough, so it's time to build her something reliable....a DATSUN !

Well friends, the time has come to get this car up & going. I am hoping to have it ready so my wife can drive it to Datsuns around Bend in late August. I finally have the left taillight, & rear hatchgarnish, plus the automatic transmission pedal assembly,& shifter. Any help with scrambling this together,& making it reliable enough for the trip there & back from Canby would be Greatly appreciated!

I have a replacement front fender, I got from Danfiveten awhile ago. I got the left taillight I have been searching for from Phixius,Sunday at the Canby show. Also thanks to Phixius,for the heads up about the 610 wagon that was at Pick n pull south recently. I have the rear hatch garnish various other trim pieces, a clock,& both headlight buckets off that car. I still need to get the grille that Merlin Blackwell has been saving for me,but I have been afraid it would get damaged in shipping.

This car has been in storage for awhile, so there are bound to be other things I have forgotten that need replacement. I think I remember both bumpers being pretty banged up.

Oh,I almost forgot to mention, I also got the automatic transmission pedal assembly and floor shifter this car will need,because my wife doesn't drive a stick. Thanks again,Phixius.

The auto will do fine i don't know if there was any difference from the early 3 speed autos and the later ones like the one in my 77 200sx but it did just fine on the trip did 622 miles like nothing. I wish I could go pick up that orange 610 goon from the old man who has a bunch of datsuns sitting around his property.
