520 roll bar

[Craig Hughes]

Hi any of you familiar with a roll bar for a 520 pickup, a 1967, and I have seen pictures with this attached to the front of the bed behind the cab, but I have never seen one on restored trucks here in the U.S., anybody know about these?

Do you mean a full on big tube roll bar that bolts into the bed or the kind that come stock on Aus and Jap trucks that is part of the bed and made of small square tube? If you mean big tube bolted to bed just look around on Craigslist, here is a 620 with one http://roseburg.craigslist.org/cto/5420557111.html

 

I'm sure someone selling a truck with one would be willing to sell just the bar.

You mean the headache rack?  They weren't sold on North American market trucks, which is why you don't see them.  Asia and Africa, were pretty standard.

Hi sorry for my late response, but the picture posted by "Pacific Coast Datsun" is the one similar to the repair manual and what I had in mind with the question. Datsunaholics comment about outside the USA in other countries makes sense, so I guess I would need to connect with a outside U.S. parts supplier. Anybody gotta name? Thanks for the imput you guys, much appreciated.

Make one or have one made by supplying that picture. It's to protect the cab and glass from shifting cargo not to provide rollover protection. It just bolts in... you could probably improve on it too.
