It was awesome to run into this site. 

   I've been a Datsun lover since my dad gave me my first vehicle a 70 PL521 back in 90.  Truck ran great till I turned 16 then promptly died.  We moved and it was towed to a Junk yard.  If I'd the time and resources over the years I would have picked it up and restored it. But the Navy/family takes up most my time now.  I've married a gal here who owns a 94 D21 hardbody that reminds alot of the 521.  No power steering, ect.  very basic truck.  I love it.  Finding any older Datsuns up on New England is almost impossible due to the rust and salt.   Someday I'd love to find an old 521 and pull the 2.4/5 speed out of this 94 for a swap.  If people can put 350s into these trucks, I bet this would work to.  Again this is a nice site I will visit frequently and post some stuff on the 720 side.

Brian Thanks for joining. This place is full of people with heart; just like the 'lil' Dats. I hope you find one to save. As Paul said "welcome"!
