RatRod25 Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 So my motor in my 84 finally threw the towel in:(. Its been a hard and rought 240k, but she finally let the rings give way:( But good new is she has high hope and i picked her up a g/f!!! Found this on cragslist for $900. So i called the guy and offered $500 and he said lets meet tomarrow . So i just picked her up, she runs, has a/c, brand new A/T tires! Tires have less than 50 miles on them! rad needs to be flushed it got hot driving down the freeway. But all in all way worth 500 bones!! :D Not a datsun but still in the family!!:fu: Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Good score. Fix the motor in the tan one then youll have 2 720's :D Quote Link to comment
RatRod25 Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 '85? Its a 86 last year this body style. 86 1/2 started the hardbodys Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) Only the '85 and '86 had that style box. 50/50 guess and I.... was wrong. Some very late '86s got the D-21's Z24i motors in them. The holy Grail is to find the Nissan Factory Service Manual supplement with the throttle body information for the 720.

RatRod25 Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Good score. Fix the motor in the tan one then youll have 2 720's :D I know!! Feels kinda cool right now! But i think i might turn the 86 into like a prerunner/ desert truck, so i can haul ass threw the desert! Only the '85 and '86 had that style box. 50/50 guess and I.... was wrong. Some very late '86s got the D-21's Z24i motors in them. The holy Grail is to find the Nissan Factory Service Manual supplement with the throttle body information for the 720. Wait.. a 720 came efi from the factory??? Quote Link to comment

RatRod25 Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Did a lil work on black truck this weekend I pocketed a short shifter from the JY outta from a 720.. Before.. After.. Heres a comparison of the shifters.. Top- 86 factory Middle- 84 factory bottom- Modified 84 I found a console at the JY the carpet on it was nasty and i had to modify it to my liking.. Found speaker box carpet at big lots for 2 bucks! Turned out pretty good for my first time doin upholstery.. And here is the console and shifter installed ( Crappy cell pics) Quote Link to comment
