  1. Actually, maybe orange with a rising sun on the roof? Jap flag maybe? :rofl: :rofl: That sounds cool as fuuuuu!! I have the rest of my black primer now. Gonna lay it all on, and paint the truck soon. probably gonna rock it flat/primer black for a while until I get ready to paint it. May even toss a rising sun on the hood :thumbup: Dunno, just need to finish with the body first. Floor pans are coming up, as well as battery tray. One of my AZ commercial accounts is a resto shop. Guys cool as hell and offered to do it for me :thumbup: In the mean time, I decided the heater core was too difficult of a task for me to solder it back together, so I took it to a local radiator shop where the soldered it for $65 even. Seamless and beautiful! _DSC0074 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr Until next time.... _DSC0080 by metalmonkey47, on Flickr
  2. My advice: Unless you've got money, don't even think about bagging it. Also, it's probably useless to bag just the front. If you aren't intending on laying frame, why would you want to bag it?
  3. Take a look on JCWhitney, rockauto, and partstrain.com for cheap reproductions.
  4. Nice answers. 72240Z, is there any particular brand that can say is better then the rest?
  5. That's a pretty large bit. I'd say for the cost of shoes, go ahead and do it. FYI, i've found the easiest way to put shoes on a 620 is to attach the springs to the shoe and stretch the shoes over the adjuster/wheel cylinder. More leverage means less effort.
  6. Not necessarily. Probably voltage regulator. It's externally regulated (unless someone's upgraded it to a Z car alternator which isn't likely) Have you looked to see if maybe your fan belt came off? No spinning alternator means no charging. (It's a long shot) Charge the battery, start the car, and check voltage with your volt meter. (I'm assuming you have one? If not it's a good time to invest.)
  7. Pinto shocks = best thing since sliced bread!

      Front :P SOOOOO smooth on my low truck! Rocking air shocks on the back with 120PSI. Smoothest truck I've ever driven. Better then AZ's new 2011 Ford Ranger.

      Diplomat Shocks Are 2" Shorter than Pinto >:D

      For My 6" Drop

  8. Welcome!! Where did you get the eyelids for the headlights?? I like them!
  9. Holllyyyyy crap do these make a difference! I'd like to add that Gabriel Classic shocks are not necessarily the ones to use for this. There quality is great, but the sleeve in the bushing at the eyelet isn't perfectly round making it nearly impossible to drill straight. And that's using a drill press and new bit. I countered this by using a slightly undersized bolt. 7/16-14 is nearly perfect. As long as it's tight, there's absolutely NO bolt play.
  10. Pinto shocks IN. I feel like I'm going to spontaneously combust going over a bump.

    1. Dat Lurka

      Stock shocks IN.

      They like limp dicks holding my truck up.

    2. I'm BLUE

  11. What? Trolling in sightings? Whas goin on here? :rofl: Anyways. Friend called to say he saw a white 620, slammed with a little poke.
  12. I was gonna say, for cherry red, gloss black or white would look neat.
  13. This thread needs more pictures :thumbup: I love your car!
  14. Nice!! looks like you got it back in great shape.
  15. Depends on offset. My 15x8's Cut up in the rear with 205/60's.
  16. Holy headgasket batman. Glad mine works great :rofl:
  17. Been meaning to ask this question for a while. Subscribed
  18. For a 620? Paint them to match the rest of the truck.
  19. Where/how much were those fender mirrors?
  20. USPS screws up pretty bad over here sometimes. I had a harness dissapear for about 2 months. USPS refunded the cost, then the part showed up. Then had a part that shipped from Oregon make it here, then USPS returned it back to the routing center in Oregon before sending it back over here. No clue why and they couldn't give me any answers. Last issue was a block off plate I made someone that just flat out never made it. i made 2 others and shipped. Took a 4th try using UPS to get it there. USPS never located the missing 3.
