1974 Datsun 620, 4 speed Pickup. Body Off Resotmod. When I first set eyes on this Datsun Classic, I was sold simply on what I could see from the top side. I did not expect to learn that the body was removed from the frame, before restoration began. Now I can't see everything, but from what I can see, and from what the previous owner confirmed, a tremendous amount of time and money went into what you see now.
The pictures of the exterior, frame, hardware and underside speak for themselves. The paint does have some imperfections, but it is amazingly rich, deep and shiny since thousands of dollars went into prep and laying down some beautiful BMW coded paint. It is not a perfect truck, but to my unprofessional eye, it is a show stopper. All the hard work has been done, but there are a few incidentals that one may wish to upgrade or complete. Those items being: The bench seat could use some new foam on the drivers side; it has lost its firmness. Also there is one 5” seam on the drivers side where the thread has broke. It does need a speedo cable and hood latch cable. There are NO cracks and NO splits in the dash and it looks great.
As for the Mods.....the front brakes have been upgraded to Wilwood Disc. An aftermarket radiator, new rims, new low profile tires, hoses, wires, and more have been added. The suspension has been lowered, but can be easily returned to natural ride height just by removing a block or two; all making this a thrilling but safer, and friendlier truck to drive.
A few extra added mods include a spray in bed liner covering the entire bed and the inside of the tailgate; (only when you open the tailgate is there some primer visible that did not get body color or liner. Easy to finish.) High intensity blue dot headlights have been installed, and a white faced gauge cluster. The heater and blower fan works as well as the radio works great and is original. SOLD
