Phixius Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Picked up this 610 from Ted (tdaaj) (that's him "securing" it to the dolly) recently. I say that because the strap popped off a mile down the road.fun... No motor or trans. Plan is to drop an L20 W/5spd and daily the sob. Words are boring, on with the pics... Got it home tho... Bruce approved... Color code 252. Stoopids auto... ted supplied 5spd stuff for manual swap. 6 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Automatics..... are survivors. They are driven much differently than standards and will less abuse. 4 Quote Link to comment
Phixius Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 New to the 610 crowd. Some dropping of the knowledge would be nice. Is this a h190 rear end? 3.7 or 3.889? Build date 10/73 More pics. 2nd day. Had some pretty cool scenery while making a parts list. Sunset and rainbow... was actually double rainbow but camera wouldn't pick up. To faint. 1 Quote Link to comment
Phixius Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I believe the manual swap stuff came from this... 1 Quote Link to comment
Phixius Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Local wrecking yard has this... My junk yard loot... I'm going back today to get the ac stuff... is there anything else I should grab? Is the center consol different for auto vs manual? Are those the stock turn signals butchered into the valance ? Or something else? I 4 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Is this a h190 rear end? 3.7 or 3.889? Build date 10/73 Well unlike the 710 which all had H-165s in them the 610 used H-165 3.889 through July '73.... manual and automatics. H-190 3.889 Aug '73- Aug '74.... manuals H-165 3.889 Aug '73- Aug '74.... automatics H-190 3.700 Sept '74 on.... manuals and automatics. Local wrecking yard has this... Could be L20B engine but has been exposed to the weather with the carb off. It is a standard so get the pedals, master and slave and the 4 speed. and driveshaft. If you plan a 5 speed swap skip the 4 speed. My junk yard loot... I'm going back today to get the ac stuff... is there anything else I should grab? Rear red marker lights... that style only on the goons and easliy cracked and broken. Does it have the tach or clock option? Good for trade or use. Front windshield and rear glass? Door handles break off so keep a spare. Ignition key/lock, and the rear lift lock assy. Hell, get the whole door. Could be good to have if someone 'taps' you from behind...... 3 Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Grab anything and everything you can. If it comes off throw it in the wheel barrow 2 Quote Link to comment
Phixius Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I got the tail lights. And it's a L18. Ted supplied the clutch peddle assembly already. And I thought these had a long tail 4sp? Or am I wrong? Junk yard car has neither tach or clock. Just a blank. Mine has a clock. . Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 The 610 is unique in that it has a long 31.5" F4W63 four speed. Here's a picture of a 610 4 speed from Canada. It was dealer purchased and still has the tag and correct part number on it. Here is a short 510 F4W63 in front and a 610 4 speed in the back. 2 Quote Link to comment

MicroMachinery Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 No. Correct 73 turn signals are in the bumper. You will want that valance, however. 2 Quote Link to comment

Phixius Posted October 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Yeah was wondering if those were in the bumper and just cut into valance? Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Is that the face he makes when you take away his chew toy that was on the seat in the prior pic? 1 Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Yeah was wondering if those were in the bumper and just cut into valance? Yeah. Looks like they were put in there by a hack. 2 Quote Link to comment

Lockleaf Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Seems like that center console might work awesome in 510s as well. Even if you don't need it, might make a good piece to sell. 1 Quote Link to comment
