521 and I need your help to make this a great board. If You have a 520 and you know anything about keeping it running we need another moderator! Please volunteer to help. Ken

Come on, there's got to be at least one person out there who knows alot about the 520 and willing to act as moderator. Even if you aren't an expert, if you spend hours on line looking for parts and links you can handle this assignement! Step up to the plate and help 71-521 and I make this a great board. All you have to do is make sure people aren't posting pictures from hotcheerleaders.com!!!!

:shock:

but seriously...

who really needs a 520 section...

520's are for those who can't afford a 320 or 521!

they were really only test vehicles for the 521's!

:D

Everyone knows the middle child is the most ignored! Ok 521, I think we should have "pissed" enough 520 owners off at this point, maybe one will volunteer! If not, I've truly misjudged the 520 group. Maybe I'll have to buy one so I can add spine to 520!

I give up! We've tried nice, we've tried pissing folks off and nothing seems to work with the 520 owners, I guess I'll just have to buy one and pretend I know what I'm talking about!:P

oh well...we gave it a good try...

maybe we should combine the 520 section and let the 620's in there as well..hmm...kinda 520/620 section...it's only a Datsun thing.

[font="georgia"]What might work as well is combining the 520's & the 521's. They are very similar in many ways.

Pac, they're all very much alike. We just need a 520 owner that loves his as much as the rest of us loves ours. Paul has taken the 521 quest to heart and I'm sure there is a 520 owner out there who wants to do the same thing; make it easier for a 520 owner to fix up his or her truck. We've only been up a little over 2 months and I have faith the right person will show up. They've got to be a superman, looking for new links, finding parts manuals, able to leap tall buildings with a single bound.............. I can't wait to see what we add in the next year. :dude:

I am going to try and fix up / restore a 1967 520 on a small budget.

Anybody with a parts truck interested in parting with the odd part?

Pics will follow , but space / time are the usual constraints ! ;)
