Bugbusters Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 I have found myself back into Datsuns after a 30 year separation. I had 2 411's back in high school and now have purchased a 70 521 from another Ratsun member and I am in the process of getting her back to good condition. I have spent many hours looking thru craigslist for parts and the web and found very few. I need a little help or direction to find a Datsun contact in W. Washington state.....Seattle, Olympia area. Is there anyone out there that might have a hood for a 521 and 5 speed trans? Any help would be appreciated ... thanks 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Welcome to Ratsun Bugbusters there are lots of L521 and PL521 owners here. If looking for information on parts like where to buy spark plugs or what are the best kind then post any questions. If just looking for parts like a fender or seats it has to be in the Classifieds... Hood.... http://community.ratsun.net/classifieds/category/9-body-and-interior/?sort_key=date_added&sort_order=desc 5 speed... http://community.ratsun.net/classifieds/category/5-drivetrain/?sort_key=date_added&sort_order=desc This leaves our forums free for discussion purposes.

Bugbusters Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I picked up the truck from an army guy at Ft Lewis. he painted military green with a big star on the doors..... he said there is pics of it somewhere in here . He had a bad meeting with a fence post and took out the grill, apron, and the front center of the hood..... a direct center hit in the front end. I am in the process of repairing the rust issues and fixing the front end but i dont think i can repair the hood. So A hood is top of the list...... if anyone knows of one please halla Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 The guy just above you ^^^ might be able to help locate you one. But i'm going to text him,, and tell him not to, till you post at least one picture. 1 Quote Link to comment
