Justin Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Sorry, no pics! but it's a post-70 (side marker lights) with no front bumper/splash pan unknown straight axle, flat-black primer, "trailer lights" cut into the tailgate, and a roll bar which may or may not be just sitting in the bed... Looks like it's been there for a stretch of time at least- I've never considered trying to buy a car from a "tow-yard" until today... (think they'll just trade me for the 620?:rolleyes:) Anyone want to post tips on what to watch/ask/pay for?? I really would get use out of a 4x4.... Quote Link to comment
Hyphy Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 as far as i know. the 521 didnt come 4x4. Id find out whether it was a body transplant or drivetrain. and for rust. Really depends on condition and so forth. Pics would be best Quote Link to comment
Justin Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 (edited) No! I'm pretty sure the 620 didn't even come 4x4 (only "dealer installed"). I forgot to count the lug pattern :( No batteries in the camera, only 1/2 what it needs (<->battery count). Will take the batteries and camera tommorrow, fingers crossed. I spied it cause I noticed the late-model 510 (with what looked like a 710 grill?) I don't know my 510's that well, but it was definately after '72; and it said "datsun510" But really though- I've been goood- no repo and towing yards; more than a week. So how"s that work? Is it possible for me to contact the real owner? I have the plate number. Thanks! Edited March 1, 2009 by Justin Quote Link to comment
Hyphy Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Best bet is to contact whoever owns the yard to see if its even available Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I was under the impression the 720 was the 1st stock 4x4 available. Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Best bet is to contact whoever owns the yard to see if its even available It will have to sit for a certain amount of time before the yard can legally sell it. Ask them how long till it is available and that you are interested in the truck for $150 over the cost of the tow bill. They'll sell it to ya. I was under the impression the 720 was the 1st stock 4x4 available. Correct. All others were done outside of the factory. Quote Link to comment
