As always, thanks. Everything is dried out from setting so many years and butterflies are rusted from moisture.

Beowulf started following Wheel question on a 620, 720 Crewcab - 4 doors, 4x4, and a huge freaking headache, Carb rebuild and 1 other
-
How do you identify the carb used on 620? Have a 79 L20b need to rebuild carb but can not find manufacturer or numbers.
-
Opening thread again, looking at 2007 Frontier 16” wheels, am I reading these post right that they will not fit because the center bore is smaller. My 79 620 is bigger. thanks
-
Those are nice but jut not the look I want. Plus I’m on a budget (read cheap) lol
-
Thanks for the help. Going to pass on the corvette rims and keep looking at 6 lug that will fit
-
Ok, I understand. Now most everything I find in 6 lug are still 8; 8.5 in wide and 15” is this still a problem?

Hi all, worked some on the truck between chemo. Made some patches for the rusted doglegs on the front fenders and filler panels for the taillight housings. Good friend welded them up for me. Decided on led lights for a change, small and simple. Be glad when it warms up so I can get back on it. Chemo takes so much energy out of you, can’t deal with the cold.

Looked at the wheel topics but seems that thread is not used. So that being said, like some input. Have access to some mid 80’s corvette rims that I like, which are high positive offset. But by the time I use the 6 to 5 lug 2” thick adapters I’m back to almost zero offset. Question being has anyone used a similar set up and and problems with using 8.5 wide rims on the front of their 620?

afternoon all. first week of chemo kicked my butt. first days not so bad but 4,5, and 6 thought I was going to die. moving around some today so thought I'd ask a question. Has anybody here relocated brake lights to their tailgate? I have a set of round C4 corvette tail lights and was thinking of using them low in the tailgate. one each side with a smaller round to the inside. Kind of like the Nissan Skyline had. Thanks all
-
Hi all, first chemotherapy today, so far so good. No nausea but next few day will tell. Hope to work on small things as I feel like it. thanks for the wishes and prayers. Having inserts I made tig welded into place want different look on the rear for tail lights and center exhaust. Want to build a front spoiler also not sure of look yet. Thinking rally look with large center lights.
