fisch Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Duuuuude Pac... You are gonna give some of those customs we've seen lately from over in Japan a run for their money. And I haven't said it, but kudos for getting the beast that low w/o cutting a big hole in your bed. You can actually still put stuff back there! Quote Link to comment

Steroid Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Mark. You cann't believe how much it pleases Me to see that truck once again in show condition. You have done an awesome job!!! Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted December 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Thank you guys.. i really enjoy sharing my progress w/ pix. I wouldnt say she's in "show" condition yet but i hope to turn a few heads. What id really love to do is track down the owner during the trucks "show condition" days..Mike, how kool would that be to compare old & new pics? Quote Link to comment
djmoreron Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 once again that is amazing. once i start my new job ill prob have 1000 ?s for ya about how to bag the truck without hacking up the entire bed. i showed the video you made to my girlfriend and she loved the music.... the last song was the best!!!! al naafiysh... got it on vinyl Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Damn dood...movin right along :D Quote Link to comment
pope_face Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Pac, looks good... If I didn't know what to look for, I wouldn't be able to tell... And I was going to ask about the low too... Did you body-drop the bed? It looks like you did, but I can't really tell... Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted December 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 No bed drop to speak of. Rear suspension is a simple 2 link w/ the bags behind the axle. Front is re-key'd torsions w/ the shock towers raised 2 inches..running new stock shocks w/ an ok amount of travel. Eventually i plan on running a 3 link w/ wishbone & bigger notches & ill also raise the gas tank above the frame. The front MAY get bagged soon after depending on the $$$ flow...i have a guy who'll do it for free as long as i buy the metal & a few beverages :D. 1 Quote Link to comment
