Hah! A Tbucket 1919 Datsun. That's funny. Could be rad though! Thanks for all the info! I'm pretty sure it's worth a bit more than 20 bones but I'm not really sure I'll be selling it, as it's part of the history of my home. I've found a plethora of odd things on this property. Including, believe it or not. A baby grave from 1907 covered in dirt in the back corner of the lot. Thanks for the links DatWifey! I'll try and check them out.

HRH, That's a good idea! Would love to be able to actually use this plate. Although I'd be worried about someone stealing it if it was a daily driver. I'm going to try and contact the DMV and see if they can dig any info up on it.

Yeah, going to leave it how I found it. I guess Washington plates for that year were black on yellow.

I've been doing some work on the cabin I live in here in Seattle. I was under the house using a bottle jack to raise a corner of the foundation that has been sinking, as to level the house out. This license plate was used as a shim on top of the pier that was supporting an entire corner of the house! At first I thought it was a motorcycle plate because it's tiny. Turns out it's a Washington state passenger vehicle plate from 1919 with the plate number 777. How random is that! I found it funny because not only i it 777. But my 620 was manufactured 7/77. Pretty crazy. It's the only plate I've found with that low of a number from 1919. The metal guage is thick. It didn't even dent with the weight of the house. Anyone know anything about vintage auto plates?! I read that 3 years prior they used leather license plates.

I see this truck in Ballard daily now. It's nearly identical to mine. Aside from mine being satin black. Sweet truck!

The U joint is solid. Doesn't wiggle at all. Let me know if you want it! Cheers!

This drive line came out of a 620 long bed. Carrier bearing is in good shape. It's only the front half. I used the back half. Hit me up if you're in need of it. I'm in Seattle. $40 obo or trade for some 620 0r 720 leaf springs. Cheers!

Believe it or not. My passenger side leaf spring snapped clean in half. Not really sure how or why but it sure is busted.

Oops, you're right. Any admins able to move this thread?

Hey all, I'm looking for some rear leaf springs for my '77 620 short bed. I live in Seattle so hopefully there's some foating around close by. PM me if you have some!

Got a 620 rear axle and brake guts. Need to get rid of it. The wheel cylinder's look good. Spindles are straight. Only have one drum cover. Differential is no longer in it. Need any of this stuff? I'm in Seattle. $40

Cool, A french-bo sounds pretty sweet! I'll post some pics of my schwinn when I get a chance here. It still has the original Springville City, Utah licensing tabs on it from where I grew up. Haha. I dig the custom Telsco guitars. Have you been to that newish shop in Ballard that specializes in old japanese guitars? Edit: I just realized you're not in washington. So I'm guessing you've never been to that shop..

Cool bike, I like the double brake caliper. And the sissy bar turned out sweet! Not to mention you have good taste in guitars. Post more pix with the progress! I build bikes as well and still rock my first Schwinn that I actually learned to ride on when I was a kid. I use it as a bar crawler now. Haha. I recently cleaned it up and got some new whitewalls for it. There's a pic of me on it with my pup. Viva la banana seat! I also build sweet BMX bikes.

lower it and put a hot tub in the back. Hah hah!

Back on the road and terrorizing the neighbos. Thanks moparvwfreak for the new diff. It's working great!
