Bleach Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 Cool. It looks pretty good. I keep watch on most online ads for Datsuns. I have not seen that one for sale here. 1 Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 That is a nice specimen ? 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 Congrats that is a sweet find! I love the plaid seats. That is nice enough to keep just the way it is. The only thing I would consider doing is painting the shell to match and freshening up the paint if it does not rub out. It is nice that it has the factory tac. Does it have AC also?

73dat Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 love it and welcome 1 Quote Link to comment
620_Brian Posted September 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Ya I hope just to freshen it up a little but leave original. No AC but I’m sourcing knee knocker style cabin components. I’m in FL - it’s a must. AC parts anyone? That cap is going in storage - it’s going to haul my motorcycle when needed ?. 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 Those caps are very hard to find in good shape. Have it painted to match and it will look much better. Quote Link to comment
vicdat Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Great score Brian, I had a 5-speed 79 King cab too w/AC from 1983 to around 2010. Original beige with all correct emblemd California smog pumper. It was barely a rust cancer survivor. I saw it running around South Gate a while back haha Brad at hose stop knew this one back in da day... Vicdat 1 Quote Link to comment
Seeker > 620 KC Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Your interior is in fantastic condition! My door 79 KC plaid panels barely had a stripe or two of that faded material left hanging off them, and I had to replace them with the smaller stock blue panels. And your blue plastic interior is rich in color, just like the paint. Do you still have the original blue shift knob? How about a pic? Mine was roached beyond recognition like it was in a fire and replace it with a black one. I'm looking for another but it's been so lone I'm not sure about the size and shape. If anybody has a blue one PM me plz! 1 Quote Link to comment
620_Brian Posted September 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 Delivered! Finally! 7 days total from Washington State to Central Florida. Here’s some pics of some pleasant surprises. Carpet under the vinyl? WTF! Rust free floors! Crack free dash Anyone semi local to me want that white GT Spoiler camper shell? $100 come and get it. I need the bed to be open and accessible and I really don’t have room to store it... 3 Quote Link to comment
