1978 Datsun Other Description

It's with a way heavy heart I list my Bulletside Datsun collection. My Datto is a member of the family, y first child, s it were. I'm looking for the right family fit for the adoption of Blue. The adoption process cost start at 4,000k, nd Blue is well worth every bit of it.

There is literally, full bed of spare parts, ubber, ooks, tc related to Blue. It all goes with him,it'spart of the deal. I have been combing Pick-n-Pulls and JY's for 15+ years now, nd have amassed adecent supporting cast for this Truck Iwon'tseparate, nd will continue to try to sell Blue locally in Washington.
Still the OG paint, ith liberal touch up by hand with POR15 in their light blue color. It's a truck, ot a garage queen, nbsp;and it still has its hooks, nd has been used as truck. no trailer queen here, ho Blue has sat in the garage the last 5-6 years, ut of the rain. Old datsun's don't like rain.
-Dash was perfect, o more than 2 days left in the dang sun last summer saw the dash finally crack.
-Passenger front pushed in by PO a bit. No steel replaced, ut its pulled out and is 95% straight with bumper on. Zero handling issues.-Passenger rear lower mini clip of the bed is creased as well, ot noticeable, nless you look closely. Come led easily be worked out, ut it adds character. It's a truck, ot a fairlady.
-Really Fast with the SU's Carbs and not really very fuel efficient. If this is to be a daily driver, ou should get a Weber. There s a intake manifold, or the weber included.
