mklotz70 RNL320(Melvin)

[mklotz70]

I should.....I have one pole up with a barn looking bird feeder on it......I could leave Melvin in the yard to connect the other end to!!! :)

 

Thanks for the chuckle!

Speaking from recent experience, passing along stuff that you don't have time for generates a tremendous sense of relief and also satisfaction in seeing someone else get a big charge out of it. :)

Amanda and I were just talking about Mend this morning :)

[Phlebmaster]

I love those fender turn signals. Reminds me of the old Chryslers and Plymouths. :D

[mklotz70]

for all we know....they could have come off of one of those.

[mklotz70]

Got the title yesterday :)

[fisch]

Awesome man! That is a relief right there! I have all the info to title my 59 (1. old title, 2. death certificate (in the name of the deceased), 3. estate arbitrator proof (who had to sign the title), 4. bill of sale(signed by arbitrator)) but am scared to go in and have them tell me I am missing something!

[Charlie69]

:cool:Hi Mike, did the title numbers get straightened out? So when doe the official chop begin?

[mklotz70]

they listed it as 4L320**** instead of NL320**** but, it will show up in the records that they did the research on it, so it shouldn't be any prob transferring to someone else now. It really only matters if I sell it or drive it.......at least one of those will probably happen :)

[mklotz70]

Melvin will be sold...my motivation has changed. I would prefer to not part it, but I'm not against it. It's just that there's nothing of any real value on it. The spotlight and fog lights are someone else's already. The turbine wheels on it will not go with it unless I get a great price. I'll put them up separately. I paid $300, + $100 between title transfer and dolly rental. I know I won't get all my money back out of it. My biggest concern is that if it leaves here in one piece, that the title is transferred. I've been screwed a couple of times before, so someone has to want this bad because they're going to have to transfer the title before it goes anywhere. I'd much rather keep a couple of parts and lose my money on it than run the risk of it leaving here in my name. Anyway.....if anyone has any interest in it, please pm me.

this is classic... alot of part saved and alot of parts needing resto..... nice find!

[mklotz70]

I'm sure I'll catch some flack for this, but oh well :) gcmustang and I finally got around to pulling the engine so that his 411 might live. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Probably the best piece on Melvin. $20...local pickup only :) It's far from perfect.

 

[Bob3]

[Pacific coast Datsun]

Tilt front end mod down the road ? :rolleyes:

[jefe de jefes]

You selling any parts now that you cut into it?

 

ie. Taillight bezels , fuel door.......

[yellowdatsun]

Dude, you hacked an NL320!?!?!?!? And here I've been looking for one forever! You guys in Oregon definitely take Datsuns for granted *WAY* than the rest of the country.

[Creepy Cruiser]

If Mike did something like this, I'm sure there was a good reason.

 

How many other 320's can live now, since this 1 is gone?

[DISLEXICDIME]

that must have felt liberating mike! one less thing to worries about

[burrito213]

i hope this isnt the easy way to pull the engine

[Charlie69]

OK Mike now you can reach full redneck status!

 

 

Just put half of the hood on it mount it on the top of a flag pole & fly a Confederate Flag and you will have Full Redneck Status! :rofl:

 

Hell you won't even need to bother with another clothes line! :D

[ppeters914]

No problem. That'll buff right out.

 

i hope this isnt the easy way to pull the engine

I'm guessing a) he didn't want to scratch the fenders, or B) the lift wouldn't lift it high enough. :lol:

 

Seriously, hope it was too trashed to worry about.
