I got J.C's 1974 620 parts truck and I pretty much just need the engine. It has good glass, a good bed with tailgate, I think most of the body panels are good. I will be getting it on Saturday and then I will post pics. I also have tons of other parts, so hit me up with you needs. I am in socal near San Bernardino.

 

Dave

I'm still in need of a Dash insert minus the gauges, can you help me out??:)

Sure. Why not. Are you going to buy one?

 

Here is the special deal for February

 

$45 Shipped for one.

 

$80 shipped for two.

 

$115 shipped for three.

 

$150 shipped for four.

 

Prices are for shipping in the USA only. Other areas, please ask for a shipping quote.

I'll take one! PM sent.:cool:

YEA! it worked, Here is the rest of what I've got done.

Read the instructions posted above. Your link is to a page, not to the image itself like outlined in the instructions for posting pictures. I even put images up of what it looks like on Photobucket.

I'm still unsure how anyone could be confused unless they just refuse to carefully read the instructions provided.

 

 

 

Thanks Bleach, I'll try again. It sucks getting old and not remembering how you did something a week ago!

copy and paste the xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

That is what I have been doing, and I still get that message.:(

I am thinking about putting together a "Ratsun Extravaganza" at Pikes Peak International Raceway. PPIR is just south of Colorado Springs, Colorado.

 

"Datsun Cruz In"

 

featuring:

 

Car Show / Auto Cross / Time Trial

 

 

What do you guys think? If there is some interest I will get my guys on planning it. Perhaps we could team up with another event already scheduled at the track and have a "challenge"?

 

 

Sounds like fun to me, as long as we get plenty of notice to get ready.

I still can't get it to work, every time I try to post a pic from photo bucket I get an error message; YOU MUST ENTER A POST. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong, it worked fine when I posted my first project photos.:(

Since a couple of dash deals fell through, all I need now is the dash insert! someone please help!:sweat:

I'm trying again. Still can't get pics to post????

I've finally made some progress, Installed DGEV and passed smog, Installed shorter poly bump stops and lowered 3 inches, Got the front end aligned, and cut off the ugly tail pipe end and installed a polished stainless tip. Then I installed a window regulator in the drivers door (nice to be able to roll the window down finally) and installed sound deadener/insulation. If I can get it to work this time, I'll post pics of progress.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but when I load the pics, everything looks good. Then when I hit post, they disappear?

How much for a pair of fenders shipped to 80013? Mine are very rusty!:(

 

I will have to check on shipping

It is probably going to be alot but I will check

 

it looks like it would run about $100.00 to $125.00 just in shipping plus the price of the fenders

OK, I will have to see what is left Friday after I get paid and pay bills.

Thanks:cool:

Thanks, I just wish I was making more progress!:D

Now I'm down to just in need of an early (non smog) intake manifold, anyone?:hyper:

What parts do you make for 620s?:D

Thanks for the reply, The 76 is going to get sold, it's the KC I'm worried about. I have the same wheels already purchased for the KC that I have on the 76. I can't afford tires bigger than 16s, so I want to stick with what I had before, so I may have to go to the boneyard and get an earlier rear axle if they will not clear after rolling the lips. I didn't have to do it on the 76, so maybe they will fit. I had to do it on my 57 Chevy to get the 8" Corvette ralley wheels to clear.:cool:

Tom, you didn't read my post too well, I gave the site address for the company in OR, which is Route 66 Restorations, and there seals have a life time warranty, it's quality stuff.:D

OK, now for ZTRAIN, your 5 to 1 doesn't hold up with Route 66 either, their price for the KC rear widow seal is the same as the price for a standard cab $35.99 explain that. What I don't understand is why his supplier doesn't make the seals for the side windows too. You would think that if there is demand enough for the KC rear window seal, then there would be equal demand for the side windows as well. I never had a problem with what Tom is doing, he is doing a great service for us all. I just gave my opinion that I thought the company that is making them might be a little greedy, based on what the pricing is for the other seals. There are others selling Datsun rubber for higher prices than what RT 66 gets, and they don't offer the life time warranty, so there are greedy people out there. I work for one of the many companies that the upper management are getting huge money to run the company into the ground, while screwing their customers, and employees. So I'm sorry that I ruffled feathers, but I'm sick of the rich getting richer on the backs of the blue collar working class in this country. Ilove my country, but I hate where we are headed, if the silent majority don't do something soon we will be just like a 3rd world country, no middle class, just rich and poor. Our children and grandchildren are going to suffer while greedy oil and other exec's are sitting laughing at how we just silently let them bend us over. My .02:wacko:

Bummer, if there is that much difference, I will have to get an early one for my KC to get my wheels to fit. There is only about 1/2 inch of clearance between the tires and inner fenders on my 76. Thanks for the info.:cool:

I bought some front and rear seals off of eBay, I don't remember the seller. When I installed the front windshield gasket it fit like crap. The whole windshield was loose and when I put a sprinkler on it to check for leaks and it leaked on the outer part of the gasket between the body and seal AND the inner around the glass. Aesthetically it isn't too bad even after sealing the hell out of it but I still have to install the headliner and it would be easier and cleaner with a quality seal. I'm not going to be able to get the windshield out without destroying the seal. If I had known I wouldn't have removed the old broken windshield and having water leaking all over the interior was not an option.

 

A quality seal with an actual warranty sounds like a hell of a deal. Price wise, the quarter windows are more than I was hoping for but about what I was expecting. If there were a decent discount for more than one gasket set I would be far more inclined to buy two... money is very tight right now but Ive got a funny feeling that this wont be the last KC I have.

 

As for wanting pics of the final installed product... no offense to anybody, but I want to see what I'm getting before I pay for it. I'm keeping my fingers crossed hoping that these things are as nice as I'm hoping for.

Some how some one got the idea that I was talking about the import seals. that is not the case, the seals I bought came from a restoration shop in Oregon, and he even has how to pages on his site. The windshield install shows them doing one on an early Mustang, and anyone planning on doing their own install should look it over to get an idea of what they need to do the job right and not break glass or scratch their paint. All his rubber is excelent quallity, I purchased new door seals and rear window seal from him, and have gotten very good product and service from him. Aso if you think about it, some company that supplied the glass shops with seals back in the 70s and 80s, maybe even the 90s might have the original molds laying around, if someone did some research. I'm going to step up and pay the price for the seals, but it still rubs me the wrong way paying double what I paid for my rear window seal. If anyone wants to see the guide on how to install glass, here is his site; http://www.route66re...s.com/Info.html

Later:cool:

I didn't say anything about his standards, or the quality of the product, I just brought up the thought that compared to what we can buy front and rear seals for, the price seems a little high, and the company that is making them for him may be taking advantage of us because we have no other option. If they had a competitor, then the would be dropping the price to something more reasonable, compared to what other glass seals go for. I have no problem with him, he is doing something good for all of us, I just don't like the Idea of the manufacturer taking us just because we have no other options. Just my rant for the week.:rolleyes:

I would be interested in the spindles, if they are still available?:)

What ever you do, don't part it out!! That is too nice of a truck to part out, I've seen a lot worse get rebuilt, and at $600, it was a steal. I know you need the cash, but it would be criminal to part out such a good truck, if I didn't already have 2, I would be knockin' at your door. Someone please step up and save this truck!!!

Would like a complete set of working 620 gauges and a good dash.

Good luck, I've been trying for over a month for just the gauge panel and no luck, I might be able to come up with a good set of gauges though.:cool:
