420n620 Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 4 things need to be done to be complete. 1st, get rid of them front bumperettes that belong on a 75 Mercury comet, they look out of place. 2nd lower it a few inches. 3rd, toss that club that's laying on the passengers floor away, their junk, 4th install a kill switch so your sweet looking Datsun doesn't get stolen. well, that's about it. Now how about some more pic's. We are pic's whores. TY :) 2 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 I have to agree with Redeye on the front bumperettes. They are distracting from the overall beauty of the truck. Beautiful truck other wise. 2 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 2 things I would do is get a electronic ignition like a Matchbox or find a single point distributor and find a Pertrnix to put in. There was 1 for sale recently on here for 50$ with the dist. then next get a volt meter or a cig light volt meter so you wont have to chrage the battery like in the 1 of the last photos with the battery charger. Most proplems with 521s if the fuse box area corrossion. also up date to a solid state volt reg when you get a chance and buy 2 of them. matter of fact 2 of everything if you plan on keeping this a long time as you will need them. Slave , brake ,clutch masters ect oh i have those side mirrows also 2 Quote Link to comment
DanielC Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Nice truck! Push pads, on the front bumper, I would leave them. I think they area rare factory option, but not sure. But do not push anything with them, unless your truck had better front bumper brackets than most 521 trucks. A matchbox distributor would be a good addition. Do not mess around with getting a single point distributor, and converting it to a pertronix unit, get a matchbox. Nissan electronics are a much higher quality than most aftermarket stuff. The fusebox, is a weak piont of 521 electrical systems. Cleaning it helps, but do not add any electrical accessories to it. If you have a stock Nissan voltage regulator, keep it. See above note about nisan electronics. 1 Quote Link to comment
tr8er Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 No need to lower it. Lowering increases exposure to damage. Id sell the bumper pieces if you find someone looking for that rare accessory. $$$. I'd add a bed cover for protection and function. And never shave the bed hooks. This is a beautiful truck. 3 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Leave the bumper pads on the front. They look out of place because no one ever sees them on these trucks anymore. This thing is too clean/original to mess with it. Beautiful 521 as it sits! 3 Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 If lowered, only a little. Let the truck be a truck. 3 Quote Link to comment
