earlyvws Posted November 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Pure luck on this one. I could not afford to buy this if I had to had saved up the cash. I can't save money. Too many things to buy before I die. I was fortunate enough to have a lot of shit to sell to raise the cash. In the end I probably lost money on most everything I sold, but I needed to have things sell quick. For me I am more the happy with this car any real world loss on what I sold to get here has no meaning to me now.4 1 Quote Link to comment

banzai510(hainz) Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 should say Atsugi on the front of water pump. If so thats the best pump. and a good retailor for parts if thats what they sell. I cound not find a link to buy on the internet Most liekly they sell the good parts like oil pumps timming sets ect. Dereck cam over showing me his timming set kit and it was all 2nd grade India/ Taiwain stuff 1 Quote Link to comment
earlyvws Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I'll check tonight on the water pump. All I know is everything that I have bought that was import direct was made in Japan. The timing chain I got was a japanese name and made in Japan. But bought that at a different small parts store. They specialize in quality aftermarket parts for everything but mostly big American muscle. 1 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Well you got good stores by you as alot of the main suppliers the stuff is all going towards the cheap stuff. If they have links to get their parts let us know. Rockauto.com dont have the good stuff anymore either its drying up. 1 Quote Link to comment
earlyvws Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Doing some clean up. Going to scrap this. Offering it free to anyone who wants to pick up. I don't have the time to do much so got take it all. The sheet metal is all shit. The frame is nice. I can load u up with some 620 rims with good roller tires, some fat ugly rims a bench seat some really bad doors. Have vins and title on nonop. If u are interested let me know. Hoping to get this out soon, so if no takers going to try next week to scrap it. 1 Quote Link to comment
skyblue Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Aw man, don't scrap it. Post it on the 521 Facebook page. I'm sure someone will take it. Shoot I would take it if I had a place to keep it. 2 Quote Link to comment

earlyvws Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Could make a total sleeper out of it. The biggest piece of shit with an LS. Show up to all the illegals and place big money against all the American muscle. 2 Quote Link to comment
