Description of 1971 Datsun Other

Offered for buy it now is a partially complete 2 door 510 project car. it's been sitting since the early 90's when it was last registered. When I say project I mean this is a BIG project. The car has substantial rust. The floors on both driver and passenger side and rear passenger sides are completely rusted through. It's a Flintstones car for all 4 passengers. The Good: Clean Vin no longer in CA DMV system. Original Blue plates. 1600 4 speed Motor turns freely with compression. Includes extra Manifold with a Weber DGV and K+N filter. Hood and trunk lid are decent. Has all glass except windshield. Both bumpers included. dashboard. grill. steering column. original wiring harness. suspension. exhaust all there. Shock towers appear solid as do the other suspension components. Remarkably it still has the headliner. Includes 3 extra drive half shafts and disc break parts and a few other parts. The Bad: No interior. Parts missing from the engine include. radiator. distributor. starter. alternator. belts and hoses and gas tank. Fuel lines are still in place. No ignition key. but one that works for the trunk. Lots of trim pieces missing. Wiring harness appears intact but will need to be sorted and gone through. The car was running when parked. The Ugly: Forces of nature have taken it's toll. To save this 510 a lot of sheet metal work will be needed. Floors will need to be done front to back. Quarter panel rust is bad on passenger rear side. Spare tire area has a rust hole. Substantial rust on drivers lower door and upper rust holes where rear view mirror was. Please see photos for what you may be getting into. It looks better in the photos I think so prepare for the worst. This car could be saved with some skill and dedication. I never got going on this cool little 510. Hopefully someone will bring it back to life. Please be serious and follow through if you intend to do the buy it now. Don't buy it if you don not have the funds available. Full amount due by paypal within 48 hours. No refunds and sold strictly AS IS with a bill of sale. I do not have the pink but it's out of system and can be retitled. Pick up or transport will be need to be taken care of within 2 weeks. A winch will be needed to load it. It rolls but not very well due to 2 flat tires that don't hold air.
