Will do! I'll start a new thread tonight so we can keep it all organized in it's own event page :)

Yup! Good call, didn't notice when I was posting them. I just pulled the coolest results.

There are millions on google. Tell him to get on here and post pics! Found this cool turbo A series setup someone was doing in NZ for a B110.

First gen meaning out of a '03 to '08? I've seen it in a Z car once. Fit nicely.

That blue looks fantastic!

18. Got my 210, owned it for a year before I drove it.

It's pretty neat! Handle is actually wood with the Heineken logo (aluminum) epoxied on. _DSC0224-2 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr It sits VERY close to the steering wheel, which I don't like. Probably gonna heat it up and bend my shifter. _DSC0228-2 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr It's nice having it right by my hand. There's so much weight on top that it shifts with ease. A slight tug and the it carries momentum into the next gear. :thumbup: You just respond ‎"no ocifer i havent been drinking last night" :rofl:

Found this browsing through an antique mall today. So I made a new shifter out of it. The base has a standard-metric thread adapter, so all I had to do to change from the M10x1.50 in the adapter to the M8x1.25 shifter is insert a heli-coil! :thumbup: I'll post pics mounted tomorrow.

Not bad. Whats that box mounted in front of the brake master?

There are TWO popular options on lowering a 620. One is to use a lowering block between the spring saddle and the leaf that you can buy at Autozone. (Look for lowering blocks) Second is to find a set of leaf springs from an 80's 720 4x4 pickup. They have less of a spring arch and drop you about 1-2 inches.

Same as 510 :P It's the 194 wedge base. You're thinking of the DE3157(??) glass one thingy :P I'll get some pics tomorrow! Thank you sir!! Which one? There are 3 different styles in those pictures :rofl:

Really? That's really your cost? $9.99 is my shelf price :confused: Anyways... in addition I bought an LED from Superbrightleds.com (Click) On to some random pictures... My truck is almost too low for ramps now.. Need moar higher. Finally got a good look at the exhaust. Don't think there's any way to tuck it higher. Got some vinyl from the fabric store and made a new door card.

Yup! Did my engine mounts on my 620 in about 30 minuets, and that included cleaning the mount brackets.

Sounds good to me. Maybe early October? Sometime after its cooled off mid-day would be nice. Bring out the family, and enjoy a Saturday.

Thanks guys! This is for a resto shop commercial account I have at AZ? We've matched so many stupid parts for them. In fact, I've even found a dizzy cap for their forklift which turned out to be a Pinto motor... lolol Sadly, the part number rusted away with time! This thermostat had to be about 30 years old. Summit's actually about 30 minuets from my store :P And of course, were no help. The part they showed was the same thing I showed, and they had about an inch larger diameter then what I needed. Yessir! The in-hose type. It looks similar, but may work. I'll have to get the diameter and call them in the A.M. The guy restoring it mentioned that flathead V8's commonly had cooling problems. Dual water pumps, dual thermostats, etc. LMC truck even had the thermostat listed in 3 different temperatures, from Summer-Regular-Winter selections. My store actually carries little ricey parts :P Autozone doesn't even sell spoilers anymore. Thank GOD... I finally was able to narrow it down after taking some measurements with a micrometer to some I had on the shelf!

I'm trying to track down a 160 degree thermostat for a flat head in a '41 ford F1 with a 239. It's not a conventional thermostat. It's cylindrical with a valve opening on the top. Kind of funky... I'll see if I can get a picture here from Mobil. LMC Truck looks like the only option. Hoping someone here might have dealt with one before.

At work, girl being a bitch.... Being a dick back because she's giving me an attitude for making her wait in line while I help the next customer. "What's your name? I'm gonna call corporate on you." "Bieber.. Justin Bieber." She left without another word.

I'm getting confused by your grammar... Also, this goes back to the FSM. If you had one you wouldn't be asking the question! Wiring diagrams are very useful.

Multimeter > test light. Just sayin. Invest in good tools and it will pay off in the meantime. With that said, good tools aren't worth shit if you don't know how to use them. Learning takes time, so get to learning. Electronics are pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Also, check your lugnuts. Just sayin' :thumbup:

You won't find a coilover without extending the shock mount upwards. Also, you want to maximize wheel travel if you want it to really be as much of a prerunner as possible, so keep that in mind.Just any plain coilover won't do that.

Nice, I like 521's. My $.02, change the oil and never again use a fram filter. What front axle is on this?

I got a spare one I'm sure you could use. Wouldn't mind having an Aussie plate. not many do over here I'm sure ;) Got some vintage US plates if you want.
