Do you have the air filter enclosure?  It appears to be missing in the picture.  You'll want the air filter in place before running too much air through those carbs. 
Also, looks like the car was originally silver based on the paint in the engine compartment.  You might want to look for panel rot on the rockers, doglegs, and rear fender arches.

I have a beat up air cleaner cover I can let you have cheap. I just have to remember where my stash of wing nuts are to secure it.

Well in my defense, I have learn to weld, sand blast, build a engine, body work and more

What do I need

Front bumper, front fender Datsun emblems, at least one front side marker light.  Got any more pictures of the rest of the exterior and interior?

Seriously, it's difficult to gauge the condition of most of the components just by photographs. I would look at this thread and do as much of it as you can: 

After that, you'll need to assess the mechanical components. Look at the date stamps on the tires. There's a good chance they are old and rotten. Examine the body above and below thoroughly.

What is your target? What kind of car do you want to end up with? That will drive your budget.
