bru73 Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 man i wish i had the money to get my hands on a early kc truck i would olmost give up the 710 and 510 shell for one i was into minney trucks in high school would love to get back into them:(:(:(:(:( Quote Link to comment
jrbd10 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 i see what your saying. i have some friends who drive little b16 hondas, or some sr 240s, even supras. some of my friend have porsche's and my ex had her dads SLR Mercedes as her first car. i mean im still in high school but i love my 710. sure i have driven some really sweet cars in my young life but i wouldnt give up my car. and i plan on holding on to my 710 because there are very few 710's world wide. its a treasure of some kind to me and i respect it and its previous owner who is dear family friend. so i just plan on holding on to it no matter what.

bru73 Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 i hear you my 11 year old wants it for her first car :eek:im 36 and had a lot ov very fast cars but theres just somthing about a truck it wouldent be so bad if it was moving faster but being a mechanic these days is hard to survive and if i could find parts easer i do agree these cars are rare especiley with a auto and a/c from what i have been told Quote Link to comment
jrbd10 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 yea of course, trucks for mechanics are like a must. add a couple parts, your carb, better plugs, wires, igniton coil, and a exhust and you have a fun little truck to drive around town with. yes, someone has to keep Datsun alive. fords and chevy well always be around but just like in cuba, everyone takes pride of there cars and learn new tricks to keep them going.

Guest jaimesix Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Reporting to base, all fellow Datsun 710 members report to base...:) Good work. Although there is some rust, it does not seem serious. You are doing an excellent welding job, congratulations. 710s are cool, and amongst the rarer Datsuns today. A nice weld kept Datsun 710 is an eye catcher and soon its value will skyrocket. Keep us posted. Great day Datsun 710ers!!!!!

bru73 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 well i probely wont be dowing aney work on it for a few weaks i am healping the wife deal with her grandmother dieing she was sent home today to die it has all been dumped in her lap with contacting the hole famely also trying to figure out how to tell a 5 year old that great grandma is gowing to die aney sugestions :(:confused::(:confused::( Quote Link to comment
Guest jaimesix Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I am sorry to hear that bro. I hope grandma heals back. If not, hope you guys help her have a good confortable and caring time with family. About the 5 y/o, prepare the kid telling him/her grandma is going to heaven. It is better to tell the kid grandma is going to heaven, than telling him/her she is going to die. Kids do not understand death just like that, but going to heaven, they undertand that. Hope Grandma gets better. Jaime.______________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment

Guest jaimesix Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Cheer up a little my friend. This is the time to enjoy your Grandma's company and to nurture those things that will go with us into eternity, that is our personal relationships, our loved ones, and all those who we care about. This is not a goob bye, but a see you later, so go over there and make Grandma smile!!!! Jaime.________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment

Guest jaimesix Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Sorry to hear that. If you need to sell your Datsuns, let me suggest you sell the 510. The 510 being more sought after, many 510 followers, that 510 will sell better. Keep the 710 in the house. Jaime._______________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment
