It is lower than the truck sides. Looks out of place in my opinion. If you like it then rock it and enjoy you 620!!! How is it running? I've had the air damm on since 2006 & your just now saying something haha. She's running fine I do need to install the other 3 valve seals & adjust the valves. The new carb is amazing !! 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 I think the reasun I noticed it is because the hood and the air dam are not sanded back to look weathered. It is amazing what a new Weber will do for drivability. 1 Quote Link to comment

yoloSun Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Dude, sweet. I'm feelin' that vintage vibe, the wooden box tossed in really adds a layer of vintageness. The spoiler is out of place though. Maybe replace it with old barnyard junk. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thanks..I'm going for a Tiki / Pirate ship / Rust Rod look. All of the wood I used is either from pallets & old Ikea furniture. A wooden air damm...maybe 😎 2 Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 Since my last post I've completed my back window mod & have been starting the truck once a week & letting it run for awhile. I'll be prepping it for a 220 Mile (each way) trip to Fontana CA for our SWDP bbq. It'll get a new thermostat..a minor detail & loaded for the trip😎 3 Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted January 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 Long time coming update. I had to replace the HEI ignition module now it runs again. I also had to pour gas down the main barrel to get it to fire up. Im seeing that Weber carbs don't like to sit for long periods HaHa 3 Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted April 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2020 I've recently replaced the accelerator pump on the Weber due to non starting issue / AZ gas has 10% ethanol that dries out rubber parts. I also now have to use the choke to get it to fire up & need to fab up a lever (manual choke) ..I tried using a cable with no success. The fun never ends 😎🌵🌴 2 Quote Link to comment

Found 2 stations local to me whare I can get it. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 I think there is ethanol free up here, but mostly up to 10% mix but I've never heard of any problems with separation or fouling from it sitting. I bought a 620 box from the wrecking yard. It had the attached fuel tank and the cap was off because I stole it 2 years before. The box was there at least 5 years. I dumped out about 4 gallons and ran it through a filter, it was the brightest piss yellow color. Put it in my 620 and it drove perfectly fine and I was watching for problems. I don't know why the US has so much problems with their fuel when stored. $50 for the box and over $20 back from the gas in it. 2 Quote Link to comment
