Back story...this is my first Datsun. 

 

Wait...no it's not. This is my fifth. But this is the first Datsun I ever purchased. 

Bought it in 2010 and sold in in 2012 so I could buy Old Rice. 

 

This popped up on my local CL about a month ago and I instantly contacted seller. 

Seller is friends with whom I had sold it to and was present when it was bought from me. 

He purchased this truck about 3 months after I had sold it. 

 

Circle of life. 

 

 

 

She needs some love, yes. But not too shabby. Runs pretty good, but a little warm. 

We'll get to issues soon. I really just wanted to get this part out of the way.

Kevin is pulling from his stock-pile to help a brother out. He says he has the front. 

I have yet to secure any split bumpers. WTB full set or at least the brackets. 

 

Sergio is the guy I bought it from(sounds so suave, doesn't it?)

When Sergio installed the straight valence he set the bumper in his garage and didn't install it right away. 

His dad went through and cleaned out the garage...521 bumper included in the rubble.

Parked at home, checked the mail. 

Came back from box to this view. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I really hope you're not attached to this 620 that you don't own, Kevin. It may need to donate some of it's parts to help pay it's storage bill.

I was dumb and new. WTB white 521 hood and entire latch assy. 

 

FYI, 620 hood latch fits with zero mods as long as you use both the upper and lower from the same donor. Can't mix and match.

 

Looked everywhere for a hood latch for my 521. Got one from a buddy's 620 parts truck and it fit straight on.

And guess who has a 620 sitting in his yard?  You're so rad!!!

 

 

Still earning your keep, I see.
