Im new to the forum and new to Datsuns as well. Ive had a Toyota pickup and currently a Mkiii Supra so this is new territory for me. Im goint to check out a 620 soon and im wondering what i should look for in terms of common problems and things like that. Its a 4 speed with the L20b and 184k. the body appears to be primered all over but all straight body and interior looks great considering the age. I havent seen it in person yet though. I have heard that the reliability of these trucks are unrivaled so im just wondering what to look for. Thanks in advance.

Check average stuff... Make sure it's not too loud at highway speeds. Make sure it doesn't idle to high. I have to go buy a new carb because mines beyond rebuilding. Frame rust. Pretty average stuff. Good luck!
