highdesertdatsun Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I didn't get the pics of AstroTurf carpet yet. Just wait! Ha ha This vech came equipped with NY taxi bead seat cover for massage sensation while Cruz in. I'm am absolutely oic challenged. No way, I never get factory tachs in my classics. Couldn't kype it . Wouldn't be right unless truck was junk. A old car/truck has soul to me. We my daughter and I changed the oil & filter. Replaced the gear oil in trans and diff w 80-140 at syn. tonight. She also chiseled about a pound of crud off front suspension And rear diff. Needs pinon seal. All shocks leaking. Ordered a master cylinder, front shoes, and front hardware kits they should be here tomorrow. Also the upper outer control arm bushings. Found Moog. I like Moog a lot. I'll try to post more pics tomorrow. Thanks for Ratsun! Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Highdesert.... Pm Tdaaj, I think he has a matchbox for sale. Usually does. He's always been fair with his pricing on stuff. Be sure to get matchbox, timing plate, pedal stool, and EI coil (or get a msd blaster coil) Quote Link to comment

highdesertdatsun Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I'll be following this for awhile :) Thanks for buying your daughter a nice truck and not some brand new $$$ car she could never appreciate :) i made her pitch in 2 hondos on the deal just to give it value to her . now my other daughter wants a newer hunka junka so if this gose well maybe I can talk her into a datsun too. I dont understand teenage girls. heck I dont understand any woman but I did have fun working on her truck with her. I am burned out on car repair in general thats what i do everyday but when shes asking ?s and getting grossed out by "icky poop" its cool and we bond. we dont normaly mesh well . haha thanks Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Lol I don't meet a lot of mechanics that enjoy working on their car at home. Older ones anyways. Quote Link to comment
Spoona_Jay21 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 like this 620, hopefully there will be more to come of it =P Quote Link to comment
highdesertdatsun Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 right I dont work on it home but at my little humble shop. my body wont put up with working on my backI save that for u pic it . old cars are the only ones worth it. the new stuff is well its junk . disposable herosI love all old steel . im no holds barred if you will . i had been looking for a outlet / addiction for myself.I tend to get into trouble. I was interested in building a tuner honder but somthing held me back.it was the datsun gods. I would rather spend time and pain on somthing old and I did vws when iwas young.I am burned out on air cooled too. so Datsun it is . its realy cool too take somthing bound for salvageand make somthing people strait up trip on and covet . thanks for support . in need it .
