Aside from the little crease in the fender that thing looks super straight. I like it. Can't wait to see what's in store for it.

Other than a few annoying ass rattles, that fact that it's an auto, and the ticking valve I'm in love!

Super solid :)

Wait, who is the old owner? I seem to recognize both the truck and the 510...

Looks pretty solid. Im not a big guy as you know, and I find single cabs to be small.

Every datsun I pick up seems to have at least one new thing for me to learn

Like this

Cable driven disconnect for the driveline, it's for towing I think/have been told





Even got to put her to work today

The guy that bought his old truck didn't want the powder coated valve cover.... So on it went along with my old Lseries oil cap

Got a small list of to do's after driving it but nothing major except it's missing a rearview mirror

I like the don't touch it unless it breaks or it's time
For a upgrade ;)

It has an exhaust leak, and I'll be doing and LED bulb swap, exhaust mani swap to fix the leak(stupid headers), gauge bezel is broken so im tossing in a replacement, maybe white face gauges.

Sun roof leaked(suprise right?) so I had a local shop to seal it for the winter.

Other than that it's good for quite a while hopefully
