1000 miles on a tank of fuel: 1969 520


Recommended Posts

When I was a kid my dad had a '69 Datsun pickup which he converted to run on propane. He found a 50 gallon LP gas tank and managed to fit it in the bed. The old man was kind of a gas mileage fanatic, and the record he claimed was 1,200 miles on a single tank of fuel. My little brother and I had a ton of fun in that old pick up. Including the four or five times we blew the head gasket by overheating it. Then working all night to get it back together to deliver newspapers the next morning.

Good times…

I think that is why I am still a lover of Datsuns in general.
