I took the heater out of my 620 series Datsun truck to. Simple process. These little trucks are easy and simple to work on. Love them!
Ease of maintenance/repair is one of the best things about the older stuff.
@@ProjectTimeGarage Quite agree.
I’m glad I never had to do that to the Motorized Wheelbarrow but it wasn’t the best heater. Me & my friend went camping an decided to come home. My friend wasn’t old enough to drive & I made him drive while I was on the floor trying to get warm.
Keep warm my friend.
The blower is definitely weak. Takes forever to get the cab warm(ish). I can't imagine it in a cold climate. You'd freeze to death.
Nice!! I have a 1972 pl521 that i'm fixing all the small details,and with your videos i am learning a lot,Thank you
Very cool! Happy to be of help.
Brian, fellow Tennessee Datsun 521 owner here. Ours is nearly identical, same color even. My son and I are slowly restoring it, but it's complete and runs pretty well. Your videos are really helpful. It's such a fun little truck isn't it!
Awesome, what part of Tennessee?

@@jimcook4156 we're in Murfreesboro. Not too far at all.
@@ProjectTimeGarage I use to live in Murfreesboro. Worked at West Lokey street, lived at Chelse Place and Cross Court apartments.
Enjoyed the video, great walk through to repair the heater core. It will help me, when I get to fix this on my truck.
Glad it helped
My 75 Datsun B210 is almost as simple as this. So easy to work on. Love it. I almost have entire car disassembled (i have to fix a lot of rust) working once every third saturday for about an hour, using basic tools. Every bolt is 8,10,12,13, or 14 mm and every bolt is easy to get to!
Datsuns are easy even by 1970s standards, they are basically roadgoing tractors lol
Yeah, that simplicity is what draws me to them.
Can’t wait to see how you do the dash. Have to figure out mine
Lol, I can't wait to see how I do it either. It's gonna be an adventure.
great video, love the sound of that little truck humming at the end nice work bringing it back to life
Thank you!
Still say it would be nice if Nissan would bring these little girls back into production again, gas is gettin way to expensive to obtain these days. I fell in love with these 520 series Datsun trucks and I use to own a 77 620 series Datsun truck to.
I'd probably buy one new.
@@ProjectTimeGarage Same here. As stated, I fell in love with the 520 series trucks, so nice to have, simple economic basic transprtation, what more would ya need?
You have a lot of patience Brian! And able to work in small spaces! Enjoy some heat when needed in you Datsun! Probably the only video fixing one of these on the interweb! Great video and looking forward to your dash stitching video!
That video will be shot probably next week. Going to be a trip for sure!
@@ProjectTimeGarage Ya know, from one Murfreesboro Tennessee home owner to another former Murfreesboro Tennessee resident, who may, in the future have to move back down there again, I will be looking forward to seeing much MORE of what you'll do to this 520 series Datsun truck. I fell deeply in love with it and sure do wish that they only could be manufactured once again, only this time, have four wheel drive on them, now THAT would be awesome!
Another great video Bryan!
Thanks! Yours bushings are coming!!
@@ProjectTimeGarage Sweet! :)
Great videos. I have a 520 and the headlights are not working. I hear this is a common problem. I would love to see a video where you rewire using a modern relay system. I saw the headlight replacement video. Best! Keith
The wiring on this truck is really really nice - too nice to change, really. But, I do have a video on a Toyota truck where I did some relay goodness. That may help you some.
Okay... I did subscribed long time ago😁
Thanks!!!
That interior view is the best, is there any way you could make cold starts of all of your trucks from that inside of you once it starts getting cooler?
Man, that's a great idea! When it gets cold here, I'll do that. I've updated my video To-Do list. Thanks for that!!
@@ProjectTimeGarage I can’t wait!
👍👍
Thanks!
I NEED HELP i have a 520 pickup and I don't know were to go to buy a heater same exact one in this video
The heater core is no longer produced. That's the reason I had to have mine re-cored. As for the heater box itself, you may get lucky on Ebay. Just look often. I've personally seen one listed there.
I'm looking at getting a datsun truck and I'm curious what speeds you're getting with the stock engine?
I can get 65-70 out of it pretty easily. Gearing is the main limiting factor. It really needs taller rear gears, or a 5th gear. Power-wise, no problem.
I’ve got two Datsun projects going at the same time, 73 240Z and a 620 pickup. Do you have a email address on your channel? I’d like to get the info on the radiator shop that’s in Nashville and I’ll send pics of our projects.
Yep, email address is in the description box.
