Hey from Canada!

Hello to all the datsun fans out there.

 

I'm currently looking at buying a 74 620. I used to have a 77 back in the early 90's but it was stolen from my parents back yard with no trace of it ever showing up.

I haven't thought of owning a datsun since.

I was browsing the local classifieds and found this 74 for sale.

Looks like it's in decent shape. Needs a couple leaks fixed, but the guy is doing that before it is sold.

Truck has a dual carb set up

 

So hopefully soon I'll have it parked at my place.

truck stolen from back yard and never recovered? sounds familar... :(

 

Yes! it was very strange indeed. It was half stripped and didn't even have wheels on it. was a on ongoing project at the time.

Also Not sure if this 74 is a auto. i just started to email the guy about it. I'll have to ask. I hope it's a standard as i loved driving my old one with the standard.

My other 3 vehicles are all auto. So will be fun to shift gears in a bulletside again.

I really wish I had bought a Kingcab I found a few years ago.

Was a all original rust free truck which is unheard of up here in the land of Snow and salt. LOL!

Truck stolen from backyard?

 

It didnt happen to be your parents back yard??

 

I once had a cat that ran away.... come to find out.... my parents were not exactly forthcoming with the truth.

It does sound like someone didn't work on their truck enough and someone else had it towed so the back yard wouldn't turn into a wrecking yard. If true its a hard lesson ... (sigh)

hey, truck looks good, go look in person. where you at in canada, its kinda big!!

 

 

Well! that truck was up almost 2yrs ago. At the time i was thinking it was alot for it. but now I'm wondering.

I plan on finding one in the spring when it's warmer.

 

there used to be tons around. I'm sure there is something sitting around I'll find.

I know of at least 1 orange KC I saw up till a couple yaers ago that was driving around.
