1968 Datsun 1600 roadster
SPL311-20000
Clear Oregon title
Registered as Special Interest Vehicle
This car is very close to being a good driver and had been a great
project for me. I have a '69 2000 and a '67.5 2000 project car as
well as a baby on the way - so it's time to thin the herd a bit.
Engine:
1967 3-main R-16

New water pump
Transmission:
4-speed - the synchros are worn in 2nd gear

Needs a new radiator

New master and slave cylinder
2000 clutch and pressure plate balanced to resurfaced flywheel - this
clutch grabs really nice!
Brakes:
New master cylinder
New rear pistons
Rebuilt front calipers
Stainless steel flex lines
Nice firm pedal, stops straight
Electrical:
The entire electrical system has been gone through, repaired and all
connectors cleaned.

New interior vinyl and carpet

Early roadster seats without headrests

Wheels:
The car currently has a set of powder-coated stock roadster wheels
with cheap tires - I'd like to keep these wheels, so I can give the
new owner 5 stock roadster wheels with tires that hold air.
I also have a set of black 14x5.5 powder-coated Z-car wheels with
beauty rings that were intended for this car. They are 1/2 inch wider
than roadster wheels. They are on my '69 2000 with a set of Yokohamas
that I want to keep. We can work out which wheels/tires will go with
the car.
Needs:
Radiator
An EI dizzy and coil would be a great upgrade!
Front brake hard lines should be replaced
Lower passenger front fender needs repair
Price:
$2500
Located in Hood River, OR
Happy to answer any questions!
