1975 Datsun pickup

[Snaker]

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

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.

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.??

Today I glued and painted the chassis, firewall, and the engine.  More to come later. -snaker

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.

Will do so far no problems, but will keep you posted. - Snaker
