I haven't been hanging out here lately so I don't know if anyone has made any progress, but 320 door window seals are rare. I have owned a few 320's and have never been able to source door window rubber. Windshield and rear glass rubber is available though. A couple guys here on Ratsun were trying to get new rubbers made, but the cost is astronomical. Try asking Wayno and see what he says.

Wing window gaskets/seals are not to be had, make do with what you have, I am not even sure that the 320 WW gaskets will even fit a 1960.

I use the roadster window channel felt for the side windows, and I had front windshield and rear glass gaskets made for the 320s, but I am not ordering any more of them, they were expensive, and were very slow to sell.

On the 320, the front and rear windows were made from the same profile seal, they were just different lengths, so maybe you can cut a windshield gasket to fit the rear window, then super glue it together, all you will need is two windshield gaskets, but this is all assuming that the 1960 truck uses the same type gasket as the 320.

 

Your truck is very rare, there is one around here for sale that looks to be complete, but it is totally in pieces, so it is really hard to tell if it is all really there, but the guy says it is a family truck owned since the mid 60s, so it could be all there, but the guy wants $2500.00

Hi I'am Datsunburg I have 2 1960 Datsun trucks. Wondering what is out there as far as parts and information on these trucks. thanks.

 

Hey, an Ohioan!  Not too many of these trucks here.  I'm down near Athens.

 

I'm not sure how much your truck has in common with the 320s, but 320 parts are fairly easy to find.

You'll find 320 repair / parts manuals here:

You can take lots of the parts numbers to your local Nissan dealer (or just look at nissanparts.cc ), and you'll be surprised what you can still get.  You can also get lots of parts from regular places like Autozone or rockauto.com, but they don't list many for the 320.  I just look up parts for the later trucks like the 520/521 and 620, and most of that stuff is almost exactly the same and can be used.

Some model specific little trim parts and body parts are near impossible to find, except for finding used on this forum, nicoclub, or ebay.
