parrot45 Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Cool 510. It looks pretty straight. Welcome to Ratsun :) thanks. over all it is except for the driver quarter panel, but it came with a good one tho :) Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Nice. Is this that one that was for sale on craigslist down in corvallis/albany/eugene for awhile? Unless it's worse than what I'm seeing, those dents in that quarter shouldn't be that hard to pop out. Good score, man. Quote Link to comment

Good score, man. no i found it at this guys shop in town, the pics dont really show the quarter panel very much, but the bottom of it is missing some of the quarter panel like if some one cut it Quote Link to comment
SoCal Rotarito Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Welcome! I found mine in Palm Springs, CA. Mine looks a lot worst than yours, but the frame is straight. Quote Link to comment
parrot45 Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thanks! Well a straight frame is all that matters right? Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Thanks! Well a straight frame is all that matters right? (Psst! It's a unibody; there's no frame ;) ) Quote Link to comment

parrot45 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 yeah so far they are not , but also i really dont know how to work on carbs, so i might be doing something wrong Quote Link to comment
parrot45 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 so today Dave aka (dvboth) came to my house and helped me get my dime running :) Turns out that my timing was off and my choke wasn't working right, but Dave got it to work. so i paid for the car $400, and couple free carbs, and now its running. what a deal, right? ps. also today i found out that the at one point in time Dave used to own my dime lol Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Thanks! Well a straight frame is all that matters right? (Psst! It's a unibody; there's no frame ;) ) Uni-body = monocoque, sounds like mono cock: no frame, the body supports drive train and suspension ... insert sex joke here. Quote Link to comment

elmerfudpucker Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 i like yours too, but i only have two of them :( im looking to see if i can find two more Well I will keep my eyes open, I have another complete set but they are 6 lug, got a truck? Also if you find another set out of state and you have a Les Shwabe near both of you, use them to ship them. I had my rear rims shipped from Montana to Washington for $1 each! I know I seen a set of 4 lug on the web around here somewhere... :unsure: Quote Link to comment
