PNW Datsun love

My wagon has been getting dirty since i have been daily driving it.

So i cleaned it, and installed some 6x9's i have had on my shelf. ( they are pioneers and were free)

i have no idea why there is tape on the speaker...its off now.....Then i tucked the wiring on my 6 inch sub and amp.

cleaned the rear bench seat up a bit. came out nice

screwed in my cheap auto-zone console until i find a center console that i like or make my own.

decided i needed a blanket in the back of my wagon for "emergencies" LOL

my moms Vw bus and the goon. every time i look at my car i notice the missing parts for the front end and this horrible ride height!

I may be picking up a bench seat depending on the dimensions, and they are cream!!

Here is my intro in cased you missed it.

Hey guys the name is Jalen, just turned 17 last month. I was introduced to cars really by my older brother. He was always drawing sketches and cartoons. i eventually fell in love with the first gen mustangs. I almost bought a '64.5 mustang coupe. Ended up passing on it, and i'm glad i did. a few years later when i was 13, my brother brought a '69 4 door datsun 510.so that car got me into datsuns and eventually i found the s30's (240z,260z,280z) then i bought an '81 280zx. loved it then got bored, then i was USDM and bought a '71 dodge valiant. it was to big, so i went back to Vintage j-tin and a bought a '76 280z with lots of rust.tore it apart and learned about wiring, suspension, and other parts. got bored and sold it. So then i went way vintage and bought a '67 corona. loved this car! bought the school year was getting ready to began, and couldn't get it running. so i sold it. bought an '80 datsun 510 liftback. it was a fun car. it was a automatic but still got pretty damn sideways. ended up totaling it. Bald tires, and huge puddles on a freeway don't mix. then i bought a '72 datsun 510 wagon. that i love and have been driving daily ever since.

Anyways so i bought my wagon, i love it, i daily. the plans for it are to get the grill surrounds, and then by 4' custom blocks for the rear with a flipped leaf, and cut struts up front, and then find a center console i like. I really want a coupe center console! and then work on my fitment. after that i will execute hopefully one of these ideas...IRS swap, RHD swap or an engine swap.

i would love fitment like this, but again with the solid axle not rear camber, so it will be a challenge.
