320 quest

Post by 68DSU »

I am in the early stages of what may be a Quixotic quest to find a Datsun Pickup. I like the styling on the 320, the front fenders are like a roadster/50's American truck.
I don't know how available these gems are and I'm looking to you for help.
What do I look for or avoid? Are there running 320's out there for a reasonable price?
I know the places to check on a roadster, where are the hidden "grenades" on a truck?
This would not be a show truck but would be the once in a while to Home Depot truck.

I think Ted has 2-320s. I'm not certain, but didn't he have one for sale last year?

I saw this. The concern is that it has a five speed when four speeds were stock. that and the alternator not working gives me pause. To say it runs great but doesn't have a working alternator is problematic.
