Pacific coast Datsun Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Craig it looks like you at where i was when I 1st picked up my 620. Alot of the parts you want can be found at the junkyards / Craigslist & some of them should be bought new. Ill run down the list & give my opinion...be patient & it will happen. Get it running 1st then start having fun with mods... :cool: all cab seals, from the door jam, to all 4 windows*** alt - buy new water pump*** - buy new timing chain*** - buy new some type of mirrors i like the fender ones - junkyard HEADERS - junkyard. An L 16 ex.manifold will work as good as a aftermarket header. aftermarket mufler - CL. & ive found a few at the yards..take your hacksaw 4inch lowering blocks - new. Make sure theyre angled dash pad - replacement covers pop up on Ebay sometimes carpet kit - new. a 720 kit is damm close with some trimming c-notch for rear - can be homemade [i made mine for 2 of my trucks]. also chk www.suicidedoors.com electric cooling fan*** - junkyard. Check old Volvo's or any car with electric fans. shocks - buy new bucket seats - junkyard the center consol around auto shifter - junkyard / Ratsun i think its called a carrier bearing - NEW..from experience used ones dont last. aftermarket wood steering wheel - junkyard if your lucky. CL possibly. Or get one off a Z car. roll pan to smooth out the bed - they can be made at home. fuel cell - CL, Ebay If i had any of the parts you need id give em to you for free :D Link to comment
