Bob3 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Well I finally found one and it was only 60 miles away! The guy started out at $2500. I got him down to $1500, and he "threw in" a spare hood, both doors, both front fenders, the cowl at the bottom of the windshield, NEW front rotors & pads and a starter! :fu: Here it is :thumbsup: THE SPARES ! ! ! Well - what do you think? Quote Link to comment

Bob3 Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Don't think I'm crazy ! I'm thinking of doing a similar project to the MX520, but with all Honda S2000 suspension, engine & drive train. Quote Link to comment
Madness Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 i hope this isn't the end of the 520 :unsure: Quote Link to comment

I'm thinking of doing a similar project to the MX520, but with all Honda S2000 suspension, engine & drive train. how about a s15 swap...suspension, engine & drive train:D keep'n it in the family. not that your 520 project isnt cool and I also hope that the KC gets put on the back burner until the 520 is done cant wait to see that project on the road...or TRACK:eek::cool: Clayton Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Madness - i hope this isn't the end of the 520 Oh no, in fact it's the opposite. I'm so happy to finally have a Datto for the street that I can't wait to get the MX520 done! I was just going crazy not having one to drive that I just had to get one NOW! Even though the 620 has a L20, webber and a 5 speed, I still need to get the FAST one done!:D When are you comming up to visit? Quote Link to comment
datsun 160J SSS Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 wow you got the center a/c vents IN DASH thats hard to find these days Quote Link to comment
Madness Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 I wish I could tell you. Currently I'm stuck in my area due to a bad pinion bearing in the Toyota. Maybe i could borrow my buddy's Volkswagen cabriolet that he's not driving anymore... Quote Link to comment
tyson Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 if you decide that you have to get rid of the l20 and the 5 speed with related components, I know of a 52o with a j13 that could use a heart transplant, lol Quote Link to comment
mklotz70 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Looks like you got a really sweet deal Bob! Congrats! Quote Link to comment

73dat Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 :drool::drool:........very nice ride..................:cool: Quote Link to comment
LCDC Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Nice truck, but for 1500, it should have been totally clean inside the cab. No tears in the seat. A bench seat in a king cab of all things. Thats the third truck i've seen that way. I hope its got low miles and been well taken care of, but good score none the less. Quote Link to comment
slodat Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Bob you got a good looking rig for a VERY good price, especially when you location is taken into consideration! Quote Link to comment
denveratsun Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Sweet ride man! I was thinkin of you when it came up. I am stoked that you talked the guy down to within a reasonable price range.:D I got some questions so I will be in touch Bob.:cool: The KC needs rims man...you wanna trade me somethin for the 17 inch Yukons I had on when I saw you last time? Let me know what you think. Lower it, put the rims and tires on it and drive it for a while.:blink: EASY! Quote Link to comment

Icehouse Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Don't think I'm crazy ! I'm thinking of doing a similar project to the MX520, but with all Honda S2000 suspension, engine & drive train. Yeah that would be awesome! MMMMHHHH fancy suspension! Can't wait for the cutting to begin :) Quote Link to comment
78kingcab Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 dude that truck is sweet....i wish i could get a starter in that condition......im jealous.....score!!!! Quote Link to comment

Can't wait for the cutting to begin. Icehouse - I don't plan on starting anything on the 620 KC for a year. I just wanted a driver. When the MX520 is done and sorted out I may get the bug to do something then. Thanks for the nice comments guys! :) Quote Link to comment
Edz280zx Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 I heard S2000 setups are a nightmare because of all the electronics and such (drive by wire). Would definitely be cool tho! Nice truck btw! Quote Link to comment
Farmer Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 I think you got a good deal. And I like the way it looks (not lowered) Larry Quote Link to comment
denveratsun Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 I think you got a good deal. And I like the way it looks (not lowered) Larry Yes...for sure on the first part...:cool: Ummmmmmmmm,yeah....only....NO!!!!!!!!!!!!:lol: to the second part.:D I mean 2 hours spent on that thing would bring it right down to where it would be a great daily beast of burden and still bring the dudes from your race track out to oogle at it. Thats what I'm talkin bout!:) Quote Link to comment
Madness Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 re-index t-rods and 3 inch blocks. done. maybe some new tires that weren't intended on an 18 wheeler. Quote Link to comment
