Next time I'm that way, I'll get the number and pass to you if you're interested.

    It's not necessarily a rare truck, Bri. I see these things all over the place still. They're not common place as you see them every day, but they are a lot more common than say any other Datsun models. Later, QD.
    Hey, QD, I'd love to know where they're at! I have a fuel cell for this thing, but if I can find a good tank, then I'd totally go that route and sell the tank off. She's such a great truck. I see myself keeping her for quite a while.

    It's not that they're rare, just that they're rare to see on the road. Datsun's are getting more common now, since they're so cheap to acquire, fun to drive, and cheap to own. I got this truck for $800! Drove her home, washed it, put maybe $100 into it, and I've been driving it since. I consistently get 30-35 MPG even with a big carb.

    Wow! That's awesome. Well, good luck with it! I'm sure there are many things that you plan on doing to it to make the value go up.
