    Default Looks like I'm selling my Datsun...

    I know, it's a bummer...

    I'm going to sell my '70 Datsun 521. A few of you may have seen it when it was at Garage Zero. I love it and I'll probably never find one in better shape, but because I can't take my daughters with me, it's a lot like having a motorcycle.

    SO, I picked up a '96 Roadmaster Wagon to make my fun family cruiser. My civic wagon is almost done in theory, but it still needs a full interior before it hits the streets.

    If you know someone who might dig it, let me know. At some point I'll make a FS thread about it. I think my friend Jason that owns Heritage Motorsports, which does tons of BMW and other Euro stuff is going to post it online and try to help.

    I realize no one needs to care, but since a lot of you old schoolers in here liked it, I figured I'd mention it. Hope everyone is good.

    I know a couple guys that might want it. I'll ask around.

    Oh, and I never got a chance to tell you. I actually really enjoyed Top Gear this season. Good work.

    Saw the wagon on Jalopnik. That thing is badass.

    Any plans for it?

    Thanks guys....

    Captain, thanks, Glad you liked it. Season 2 is going to blow it out of the water....that's all I can say.

    Nerdsrock, thanks man...It's dumped..I'm scraping on everything. New springs, shocks, tires, tint, and stereo and my family cruiser should be good to go! I'll post pics.

    Still makes me laugh it was on Jalopnik and Autoblog. Clearly a slow week in the world of car news since that's not even remotely news worthy. HAha

    Do not sell it. Just get more space to keep your toys at. If you sell it, I guarantee that you will regret it later. Just stick it in storage, or at a friend's house for now.

    Agreed. Especially on rare cars like that you will see one at a meet in 5 years and hate yourself for dumping it off.

    I saw it on the list of craig and I thought that was yours. It's superb and I am sad you are selling it, but I can totally understand. Rock on.

    Damn, I really wanted the truck from the first time I saw it.
