  1. PM'd.. interested in the complete strut towers... need to roll my chassis around!! get back to me please!!
  2. This is a pretty good price if you ask me! FREE BUMP :thumbup:
  3. is that original paint!?!? MAN.. get this car to SOCAL!!.. i'd buy this so fast
  4. Definitely will post up pics when I get a chance. Yes I have driven it, cant really notice anything since I'm not making any serious power.. The front end looks like it was hit straight on, over on the driver side. The previous "repair" is at the front, behind the passenger strut tower, where the front end meets the firewall. The seam looks like it has been re welded. Also the left rail that comes up from the bottom to the core support look molested, the seam definitely isn't factory anymore. Thanks for sharing. I've given those things a lot of consideration and it seems money and time are always the question. I'm no welder and I don't plan on learning cause I don't have the time to practice. I rather it be done right by a professional with experience. Shells are always on craigslist in my area but good ones are rare to come by. Yeah, Cali makes you pay for non-operational vehicles. Sucks, but i'm in no rush. Appreciate the responses guys. Its always hard to answer something like this cause it totally depends on me. I am not looking for you guys to answer this question for me. I'm just looking for some insight from anyone who's been in the same position. thanks again
  5. Whats up guys, I was hoping to get some general advice as to when you call it quits on a chassis. It's no surprise that most unmolested Datsuns out there have some kind of rust or wear going on. It's common to see floors, quarter panels, rockers, etc. replaced and remade but when exactly do you guys say the car is a loss. I'm currently building a 510 and have replaced the floors and straightened out the core support. I recently noticed that the entire front end was re welded on and they did a shitty job. Its even slightly crooked. :poop: Anyways, I'm in debate about whether or not to ditch the chassis and hunt down another one with a better history. I just wanted to see how some of you experts on here make the decision. Thanks for reading. - Jason
  6. Sup guys. I'm located here in Southern California and was looking for someone local who could help me put together the pieces for my project. I'm doing a SR20DET swap into my 72 dime and can't seem to find a one-stop shop like Datsport or Maddat here in California -- or even the states! I've heard of Mario at TSR but I don't know how to get in contact with him. I've seen craigslist ad's about a shop in Downey that does a full swap for around 4K but the shop's reputation is garbage and is known for scouting and stealing cars. It sucks cause I definitely don't have the tools or expertise to do a lot of the fab work myself and I DON'T want to spend an arm and a leg to ship a swap kit from AUS to the US. I'd much rather spend that shipping money on a resource local to me with the knowledge and experience to help me do this right. Aaannny information you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated.
  7. Cool thanks guys. Im alao looking for the hood trim in good condition. Its the last piece i need for a straight front again!!
  8. I'm looking for a straight '70-'73 front grill if anyone has one. Doesn't need to be immaculate but as long as its straight! Located in the Southern California area. Willing to pay from $50-$100. I will pay for shipping at a reasonable price :cool: :cool:
  9. Hey guys, Anyone in the SoCal area selling a front valance? Mines is all bent up!! Willing to pay for shipping at a decent overall price :cool:
  10. let me know how this "sell" is going.. im located in Los Angeles.. I'll pick it up this weekend as long as you have something to help me put this in the back of my truck. keep me updated!
  11. L20B build! not mine http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/pts/1772102111.html
