I posted some info on the general site a couple weeks ago. My mom was givin a 1981, 2wd, Datsun 720 that was stored in a mouse & pigeon infested barn. Heck the farmer was so happy get rid of it he delivered it 35 miles, on a trailer of course. Luckily we found the key under the seat the farmer did not search too hard as the interior was a mouse nest! First thing we did to her was power wash, then oil change, new airfilter, and battery. She runs good, small vac. leak when plugged runs even better. Mice were living in airfilter compartment the filter kept em' out of the carb. They did not eat sparkplug wiring ( like they did on my 86' vw cabriolet ). Currently have pulled old seat and floor mat and insulation. Mopped and wire wheeled floor. have to patch one hole by pass. side rear drain plug. I cut a patch out of one at local salvage yard, think I will coat the heck out it with coating & poprivet it on. Got a couple nice seats out of a suburu wagon, newer rubber shift boot, new jute floor insulation. I will install that stuff soon. Then electrical problem work, (no turn signals) have not investigated yet. Will try to get some pix up too! , named her ole'yeller
