I was planning on doing a restore/VQ35DE Twin Turbo or Supercharge swap, but things change. I had half the parts from my G35 that I was putting back to stock. Being that I can't support two project cars I came to the conclusion that I need to sell my clean 1972 Datsun Wagon and keep my Galant VR-4. These car are very lite weight with a big engine bay that can fit almost anything you stuff in it. Most common swaps are L18's, L20's, KA24's, SR20's and VG30's. There is one VQ35 510 running around and some had the FJ20DET form the DR30 Skyline. For non-Nissan motors that been swapped are the F22C, F20C, 2JZ-GTE,7M-GTE, LS1,13B-REW, and the list goes on and on If you know Datsun you know these cars are now quite hard to find in any reasonable condition let alone on the east coast.



-Well this wagon already sits on a pair of 280ZX front struts and lowering blocks on the rear axle along with a leaf spring delete.
-Along with 280ZX front brake setup and 240Z rear aluminum finned brake drums in the rear.
-Custom Rear Sway Bar set-up.
-The Seats are perfect, no tears or other damage, they just need a cleaning .The original vinyl door panels are in good shape.
-The front windshield has a new seal installed.
-Floor boards are good.
-Clean body, no body work needed. (besides paint)
-No cancer.
-Tons of parts (ex, metal rear hatch vents, Door sills, Grille, Taillights (one that one set), Headlights (one than one set), Heater cores, wiper arms, Speedometers, metal dash, chrome window trim, A/C Controls, door handles, gas tank and tons more.) All the parts fill the whole rear cargo area with the seats down.
-Clean VA title in Hand

Oh this is tempting if I had the space...

I have all the engine and trans parts needed to make this complete.

Do you have bumpers?

Neat car.

A neighbor of mine had two of those wagons when I was growing up in the early 80's. One was jacked up in the back with a glasspack muffler and had 4-lug Crager SS wheels,with wide white letter bias ply tires in the back that stuck out of the fenders.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif They were really nice shape back then,then they sat 20 years or so and rotted away,then got hauled away for scrap. I remember seeing several of those early Datsun wagons back in the day,but not anymore.
