BrothersGarage Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Shit yeah, nice truck! Any bets on what it goes for? I'm saying $8,801 1 Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Repainted from Canada scares me. What's oozing down the passenger foot rest/floor? 1 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Could be a leaky heater core or something. Has the original door placards. They look exactly like mine. 1 Quote Link to comment
pidge Posted December 11, 2019 Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 Hello all, I relay hate to ask being a stranger around here, but a truck like this, what would be a fair asking price? The long and short I’ve always and only had nissan trucks and have had zero problems minus ones I’ve created by lifting or lowering. I’m a bit of a Datsun/Nissan lover and this tricks in my backyard for sale so to speak. I’m outta touch on the pricing for something like this and I realize forum rules and what not, but I’m in a bit of a time crunch....apparently it’s had a bump on the front passenger side, has 10yr old tires, same age paint, a vibe at around 60 kilometres an hour, a leaking rear wheel cylinder and needs rear brake shoes both sides, brake lights and one signal apparently out as well. Asking price is $12,000CDN, but that seems steep to me. Like I said I really hate to jump on board here and ask so up front, but I’m just trying to gauge what you guys think. Thanks very much. Look foward to reading any responses.....if anyone’s interested shoot me your email and I can send some pics of a lowered 96’ HB that was in MiniTruckin magazine readers rides back in the day and a 05’ Frontier lifted with a bunch of goodies. I’m not really computer smart, I honestly don’t know if I can copy paste pics off my phone. -Pidge 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 11, 2019 Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 Fill out your profile location when you get a chance. Get a photo hosting account and post some pictures. Body damage, 10 year old tires (throw them away!) leaking brakes? electrical problems? .... If I were asking 12K I would have it running perfectly and a KA swapped in. Add up what you would have to spend getting body fixed and it on the road and add to the 12K. Yeah... ridiculous. Pass on it, the seller is on crack. 1 Quote Link to comment
Greaser2 Posted December 11, 2019 Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 It sold for $5900 plus 10% so that seems fair. I would have paid that for sure. 2 Quote Link to comment
d.p Posted December 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 I bought mine off BAT 3 years ago for $4400. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-datsun-521-pickup-2/ 2 Quote Link to comment
pidge Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 Sorry fellas 12 hour shifts......yeah gonna make an offer after checking it out tomorrow morning. Just hard for me to figure out what something like this is worth. That’s why I was hoping for a little heads up and some help on the price I should be asking ball park. Keep in mind it in CDN dollars. As promised here’s some pics of my previous Nissan trucks. https://imgur.com/a/tI0q2VN https://imgur.com/a/irNSdWK https://imgur.com/gallery/ivS3VAz https://imgur.com/a/8A81SXC hope the pics come thru. Thanks Pidge. 2 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted December 13, 2019 Report Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Nice. My first vehicle was a 93 D21, regular cab, short bed. Lowered. I also had a 2008 Frontier before I traded it for my X. I recognize some of your pictures from ClubFrontier from years past.

d.p Posted November 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Another one just sold for $9K: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-datsun-521-pickup-9/ Was originally sold on BAT, little money put into it and then resold on BAT for a hefty profit. 2 Quote Link to comment

I had been looking for years and only saw 1 other 521 local to me (I am lazy) that was haggard at best. No way I was going to pass on that one even with the BAT tax where you pay more for something solely because its on BAT. 2 Quote Link to comment
mrbigtanker Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 If it was that clean you actually got a good price. And if you text me and don't reply again I will never answer you again. 2 Quote Link to comment

East coast price was always higher but now it seems like decent 521 prices are going up on the west coast. Edited November 15, 2020 by d.p 1 Quote Link to comment
