Snaker Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Hey there everyone this is my first time posting on here so the pictures might be a little bad looking sorry. Today I picked up a 1975 mpc Datsun pickup I’m going for the street rod look. I got the wheels and tires finished as well as the bed. More to come later.- Snaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Cool when I was a teenager my '70 Bel-Air broke down...so we piled 7 of us in to the cab of my Buddy's Dad's Datsun and drove around town...in a snowstorm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaker Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 That’s a crazy story. Yesterday I was comparing the size of a Revell C-10 to this Datsun and the C-10 makes the Datsun look 1/32.?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaker Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 (edited) Today I glued and painted the chassis, firewall, and the engine. More to come later. -snaker Edited June 24, 2018 by Snaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Will be watching this build, I have one in my stash. Let us know of any problems you may encounter. I owned two of these little beasts, a '74 regular cab and later a '78 King Cab. Both were a blast to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will do so far no problems, but will keep you posted. - Snaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
