Told you it'd make it...lol. Glad you didn't have any crazy issues man. Glad you love it as much as I did too. Definitely in good hands

[@izzyplusplusplus1004]

That machine looks sick! Old Datsuns are sweet.

congrats!!! nice man, beautiful datsun, welcome to the 521 family

[@justinw_tbss_dadvan9447]

Little Datsun is cool as hell

[@skilled1140]

Killer little 521

[@Nigh7Stalk3r]

A 2JZ would fit perfect in there

[@eriksilvey2132]

I grew up with these trucks. Great looking.

[@danbasta3677]

Except when someone puts those ugly wagon wheels and thin tires on them along with lowering them to the ground. Don't crack upmover seeing that stuff happen.

[@oldschoolbudgetracing1458]

Loving the new truck. I can't wait to see what you do with it.

[@robertpenn250]

Sweet looking ride sir. Makes me wish I didn’t sell my 72 Luv. ☹️☹️

[@trueno2984]

In love with this lil Datsun

[@SlowerThanU]

Me too!!!

[@smileysun9212]

Dad bought one new & it got nicknamed the Motorized Wheelbarrow. I miss that ride.

[@darksideperformance299]

That things sweet AF 🔥

[@kenji.m-72]

Nice truck. I like the chin spoiler. Love the wide steelies!

[@DAZZZ1ST]

What a beauty! I'm wanting a 510 for my 2JZGTE.

[@danbasta3677]

Wish I could have gotten a 521 series truck like this one when I was living in Murfreesboro Tennessee. I love the 521 series Datsun/Nissan trucks the very best. Wish Nissan would build these little girls again as they gave more than excellent gasoline mileage and we need that today since gas prices have gone out of sight these days. Get rid of the gas guzzling 4 door station wagon trucks with wagon wheels and thin tires on them and return to good economic basis once again.

[@SlowerThanU]

Well, they got a gas guzzling 21-22mpg back in the day lol. That’s garbage for todays economy car standards lol. So not sure I want to go back to that lol. With this 90’s power train it now makes twice the hp and 26mpg. So you can buy your own and reminisce about 1970’s crappy fuel economy if you would like, but I am going to keep having fun over here with whatever wheels I want lol👍🏼

[@danbasta3677]

​@@SlowerThanUSo what's the problem here? All I did was write a comment and also appreciate your truck you have here. What exactly did I say or write wrong that offended you.

เยี่ยมเลย

👍👍from this guy

[@danbasta3677]

Love the truck, not wild about the wheels and tires on it nor lowering it to the ground.

[@SlowerThanU]

Well you’ll be maybe happier to know that it will be raised up more, different wheels, and some 26x8.5 radials on the back sone time next year.

[@danbasta3677]

@@SlowerThanU Ugly wagon wheels and thin tires, YUCK! Then you'll turn a once beautiful truck into something punched out and ruin the looks of it completely.

[@SlowerThanU]

@@danbasta3677 pfft, uh nope lol. Wagon wheels, the hell are you even talking about lol. I think it will have the perfect wheels and look that I want. Buy your own and you can do what ever your little heart desires with yours.

[@boostedgringo5885]

That truck is awesome. You get to yellow belly much anymore? I really want to bring my sleeper truck up and get in some grudge runs in.

[@SlowerThanU]

I don’t go very often lately because we don’t have anything to race but we will go a lot once the El Camino is running again.

[@davidnguyen7281]

Great little truck & I hope to do an engine swap to my 1970 Datsun 521 too. How much did you paid for the truck?

[@ricolopez2915]

Beautiful truck man, wha was the price?

[@HI30s]

Love the truck! Sell it to me!

[@stanleysteemr1316]

Slam it to the Ground then see how well it works on Dirt Roads with Large Rocks.! lol

[@SlowerThanU]

Oh no no, I like to just hop in and go wherever. Hate having to plan out of there are speed bumps or steep driveways or dirt roads where I’m going lol.

[@PHlXIUS]

Chevy steelies? Oh ka swap. If you use a trans from a hard body ka it's shorter then the s13/14 or you could use a trans from a z series...good way to tell s13 vs s14 ka motor is the coil. S14 is internally. S13 is external...if s13 upper intake will have butterflies near the intake of the head. remove them for better flow. If s14, get a 91? Intake cam and put it on exhaust? Or vise versa... it's been too long.... Google it ... I might be wrong... Or completely right......edit: just rewond.. It's a s13 KA external coil...

[@PHlXIUS]

89-90 was a single jingle... In the 240sx pig nose. US..aka the Ka24e.

[@SlowerThanU]

Thanks for the info 👍🏼 we probably won’t change much of anything with the motor or trans. Maybe new clutch but we aren’t really going to invest much time or money into what we know we are swapping out later. Just gonna have some fun with it till we pull the trigger on the final motor and trans. Not sure what that will be yet

[@TexasRacingChannel]

Need a nitrous LS with a carb

I just threw up a little bit thank you for your participation 😜
