  1. price me on the driver side rocker, passanger side fender, driverside door panel and window frame (the part that pushes th e window up and down inside the door in which the cranck ataches to), hood and radiator core support. price them seperate ofcourse:p Edit: even a radiator if you got one.
  2. any price is better than partstrain lol. my zip is 70301
  3. get me a quote on the price of shipping. whats the condition of the fender & rocker panel? any pics? its hard to tick me off, i take alot of stuff as a joke anyways.
  4. i would really love to get the driver side rocker from you. maybe even the pas fender depending on prices you want and shipping quotes. just let me know man. and i see some 76-77 rebuilt rabbit rads on ebay, think i'll get one since they're cheap and i need one.
  5. there are places that do metal so i might try that because i dont have any benders to get the shapes, but it looks like just 1 long strip of metel with the slight curve would fit but im not sure untill i get it home.
  6. my driver side rocker is rotted bad on my 73 and im trying to find a solution to it and i came accross this but its for a 80-86 720 im thinking. does anyone know if the rockers are the same or close to the same? http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Product/tf-Browse/s-10101/Pr-p_Product.CATENTRY_ID:2000368/p-2000368/N-111+200732042+600015285/c-10614
  7. well i realized making a rocker panel out of sheet metal wouldnt be TOO hard to do, and some of those dents i can get out, but first thing i'd have to do is straighten the rad support so everything is straight. partstrain.com seems to have ALOT of stuff for these trucks but shipping kills. the green flatbed i first looked at may have something useful. but i heard the rads are different for each year? the show truck bug was killed as soon as i noticed what it would take to get there, so like you said a good clean daily will do. i'll be the only one around here with a bulletside on the road :) bugeye, id like to get some parts but again shipping would kill for the size and weight of a fender and hood. maybe it wouldnt be too bad for the piece of rocker panel i need if yours is in good/deent shape
  8. well i went take more pics of it for more detail and to see all what i have to do. does a company make weld in patch panels for the rocker panel or do i have to make some myself? driver side rocker is rotted bad. heres the pics i took today for you guys, even with all of this, worth $100 to save her? if so i can go look at the first one i spotted to see if what i need is salvagable on it. im from southern louisiana so i dunno how many i can find to use parts. only 2 holes IN the bed dash is a tad cracked, nothing major. pass fender is BAD. grill and rad support. support is bent, fixable? the hood hinges much be tight or something because they open a lil and then the hood just bends. no cracked windows at all! 3 pics of the engine, tell me if im missing something ot what. lol where the hood bends. rad support where its bent :( hope its fixable. no other dents besides the front, pass side is the same way very tiny hole that can easily be repaired. side of bed, only one also. another of the bed. inside the t-gate. one of the latches seem to be loose, anyway to fix it or get another? roof, not rusted through where the spots are. just a very uneven roof. driver side rocker panel is rotted BAD. anyone makes weld in patches? pass side isnt bad
  9. i'll make the lil dip if i have to, im used to custom fabbing stuff, just as long as i get the type of rad i need. seems like the rabbit rad wouldnt be hard. also the first 620 i looked at was in realy bad shape, maybe i can go check it out and see what ywear it is and shit and if the rad would fit with a lil work.
  10. forgot to look for the color code but its the same as yours thats all i know. i would like to keep mine that color or repaint it the same color.
  11. i did find that article you speak of and will do that, seems pretty easy to do. $100 does seem pretty good for its condition and all. i love these trucks, just dont know alot about them, but i'm learning! found this one on summit. would this be fine? http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=PLI%2D433633&N=700+4294925061+4294907729+4294907007+4294810996+115&autoview=sku
  12. when its in my posession and get it all running right and find a radiator i can retro fit, i'll try and see if it does. since its a standard, it does NOT have cooling lines or anything running from the tranny to it right? only the hoses to the engine? if im correct then what would be the best rad to use to retro fit in there? it doesnt heva radiator so i need to figure something out lol. if i can get a rad out of an older Z car that has a standard, couldnt it work? i heard the hights and widths are different and some have 2 & 3 core, but im putting an e-fan so i'll have more room to work with, if i have to i'll drop the rad a lil so it'll still fit under the hood.
  13. the one im getting doesnt have a radiator at all and i've read the pre 73's are diff from others because of dimensions, but would it he hard to retro fit a later model 620 radiator or something? its a standard so is there any lines going to it from the trans or no? my s10 is a 5spd and it doesnt have any cooling lines to the trans so thats why i asked. and if the 620 doesnt, all i need is a rad that i can retro-fit and have the proper size hoses right? which radiator would be the best for this? asking because i basicly have no knowledge of how datsun has their stuff under the hood. maybe someone with a 72/73 620 with a standard can take some pics for me so i can see what the original radiator looks like so i know what its soposed to look like? would greatly appreciate it.
  14. forgot to add the bad dent. also the hood seems to be a lil tweaked so i'mm either get some plates to realign it and weld them in or something.
  15. well guys, i have excelent news. getting it for $100. and it RUNS! sputters/misses but runs! radiator was stolen by some blacks, but ill get another one. its a 4spd standard, 1973 model with the L16. good engine? well heres a link to the other thread so you can check it out. http://forum.ratsun.net/showthread.php?p=59710#post59710
