Picture wanted

I'm sure no one has a picture of all three trucks sitting side by side???? The next best thing, Post a picture of your beloved pickup and I'll see if I can't get 3 good model representations put together for the main board picture. My tired little 320 doesn't tell the story.

Heres a pic of my 65 L 320. Ive had it for a year now, it only has 58,000 miles on it & runs great! So far ive lowered it, painted the rims & primered the body.

Kool, Thanks P-coast. Now we'll have both versions of the 320. Now all we need is a 520, and maybe the PLG 222. 71-521's truck is beautiful and will make a nice addition. If there are any variations, send them. I'll try to get all of them together for the front page. I may wait on mine because I am hoping to have it painted the week after Christmas.

Very Nice!

IMH your 320 is very nice. Ive seen pics of it before & was wondering what kind of carb setup you have?

It's a Weber 40DCOE with 26mm venturi on a manifold designed for an MG. I did that years ago with a few junkyard pieces so I'm not really sure exactly what vehicle the linkage I'm using came from. The intake maniofold is odd in that is has no markings of any kind on it. It has shorter runners than other manifolds I've seen which makes it fit better since the carb and air cleaner is not as close to the fender well.

Thats a clean setup! Ive heard some of the MG engine parts swap over such as the heads. How much more power does it have now compared to the stock carb?

Post by **IMH** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

First off, the engine is a J16. It has a modified MGB header, a solid breaker plate in the distributor, electric fuel pump, aluminum flex fan, a mild cam and port matching on the head which was done by a now non existent machine shop that was located in Hacienda Heights, along with a 280Z clutch, a 200ZX 5 speed, a 3.70 roadster differential, etc. It runs along with freeway traffic and pulls hills with no problem.

Well I am new here so I will at least post a photo of my 65. This truck is my first old Datsun truck, but I do have 5 Roadsters!

Post by **71-521** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Welcome! very nice 620...what size tires are you running and what year were those rims off of?

Post by **kenbagby** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Looks like Bagd620 is going to have to pull to the other side of the pumps! Unless he has the illusive dual 620 tanks

Nice truck, I'd like to know about the tire size too. Ken

Post by **Pac. coast Datsun** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Paul thats my friends 620...I believe the tires are 225/35/18's & the rims are off a Titan.

Post by **bagd620** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

yeah they are 225/35/18's off of a new titan and the gas tank is in the bed had to move it for the four link didnt want it to ignite on me.

Are you in Arkansas? I'm looking for 620's close to me for sale. If ya spot any, pls forward.

Post by **ratsun** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Here is one of my 71 with Nissan parts rebuilt L16, Weber, header, p/p head, Nissan clutch, water pump, gaskets and motor mounts:). Nissan king pins and a-arm bushings go in next week!

I built this little truck for my grandpa's 80th b-day. He drove it for a few years and hauled all kinds of stuff in the LineXed bed, then called and said I could have it back this last year...

So it lives in Denver now...anybody out there from Colorado?

Thanks for all the great work on the site guys!

Nissan Diesel owners, I found a 720 with a motor still in it here in Denver...?

Anyone got seat belts that I could buy? I tried some 76 Zcar belts but they are too short for the bench...Let me know...or if you need some rear Z belts.

Post by **ratsun** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Maybe one more... this truck is really fun to drive and gets comments every single day. My dad did the pinstriping...way cool!

Post by **straycat60** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm
