konig209 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 So this is my 71 corolla 2 door wagon. With a 13b streetport swap with racing beat header, intake, and holley 460 tuned by racingbeat. I picked it up yesterday and have already cleaned it out and got it started. Its been sitting ten years. Hopefully should be drive able by next monday. :) Well here she is. I like to post many pics. Hopefully you guys don't mind. 3 Quote Link to comment

flatcat19 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 You're in for some work. Watching. Too cool. Quote Link to comment
datsunrides Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Looks better than what I started with. Hopefully it's pretty complete because if you think Datsun parts are pricey or hard to find, welcome to a whole new reality. You can still find stuff reasonable, but most times you think the stuff is gold plated! Try a heat gun on the stickers. If your looking for a hood, let me know. Mark 1 Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Lol thanks man. First one i put on there :D gotta get the old bumper stickers off somehow :/ peel off what you can by hand and use acetone for the goop left. I use an eraser wheel at work for removing stickers, emblem foam tape, vinyl pinstipe, ect. works awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment

Mark Definitely learned that already man. Bumpers $900 front or rear lol. Nuts! Luckily i have them both. I got 2 extra doors an extra hatch 2 grills Lots of emblems extra and a trunk full of crap. Lol. Not going to sell any of this stuff only because how stupidly expensive it all seems to be. I missing the hood. And i'm shit outta luck finding that. :/ Quote Link to comment

Cant believe ten yrs and nobody loved it He did. But he also had another project. Then 1 kid. Then twins. Well you know the drill priorities. I've been wanting to buy this car from him for about idk 3 years. And well now its mine. Ill try some of the options for the stickers. Really doesn't matter. Sadly the car will need to be repainted. The hatch is rusted and will be replaced. My extra hatch is blue. So later when the time comes ill send it in for paint and install the better hatch and doors. Quote Link to comment
datsunrides Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Here is mine, before and after. If you are interested I do have an extra hood. Needs some work, but not rusted or crash damaged and already blasted and epoxy primed. Was going to use it but found a near pristine one (and paid for it!). Shoot me a offer, worse I can say is no.

konig209 Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Need help bleeding the brakes. With the line disconnected the reservoir half way no fluid comes out. If i pour fluid down where the line goes into it sucks it into the reservoir. The brake master is new btw Quote Link to comment
konig209 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Figured it out. I guess getting the rear portion to bleed takes a long ass time. Quote Link to comment
konig209 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 False alarm. Still dont work. Quote Link to comment
datsunrides Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Probably a bad master. Happens sometimes with new stuff that sits on a shelf for years. Sometimes you can take it apart and hone it out and it will work. I'm not too far away, Hollister. I'll shoot you a text this weekend with a pic or 2. If you want it, I could possibly bring it up to the Datsloco swap next month. Mark Quote Link to comment
konig209 Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I found the issues. Tons of garbage in the lines and the rear wheel cylinders were clogged and seized 100% Quote Link to comment
TENDRIL Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 i blow out all hydro lines on any car new to me older than 20 years, most people do not keep up with flushing once every 1-2 years. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 I rarely flush every 1-2 days. 2 Quote Link to comment
