Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

Since I am trying to unearth my 1500, thoughts about it keep coming to mind. One of the thoughts is that the knobs are tough to find for it. The knobs for late cars seem fairly easy to come by, and the low windshield cars have repros available, but us 3 seat guys are out in the cold so to speak. What I want to find out is if there are any 1500 folks that would be interested in having a one time run of knobs (washer, cigarette lighter, etc.) made up. Since this is a limited market, it would not be feasible to have a regular production, but we could probably do a one time run. If you are interested in getting a set, drop me a line at spl310@hotmail.com.

For durability, the repros would likely be black anodized aluminum rather than the plastic. I think that the 212s and 213s used the same knobs, so they may benefit as well.

Hi, I also I'm trying to find interior parts (knobs, guages, etc) , for that matter also exterior parts, for my 65 (3 seater that I want to restore). Have you had any luck in finding any parts ?

Due to Tax season (still not over for me!) I have not posted an update. It looks like we will be making one run of these knobs, so if you want in, there is time!

Regarding other parts, I parted out a 3 seater and have some spares. Private message me a wish list and I will dig through the muck to see what's left!

hi, great ...there is still time, I'm in and waiting ! I'll send you a wish list and hope you have some of it.
Do you know who would have gauges , new if possible, I'm really trying to restore this roadster to its old glory , maybe not everything new but at least the trim interior/exterior, upholstery, etc.
thanks again.
