Ole Dusty Datsun

[mooserilius]

I'm new to the forum and figured a good introduction would be a few of pics of my little old truck I picked up a couple of months ago. It can finally get some attention so I will keep pictures coming as I do things. I bought it to haul parts around. The more I research the more I would like to do, so this thing could take a turn for something completely different from my original plans.

 

 

Just not feeling the mirrors at all...

 

The cat looks like he's up to something.

This was all from the day I got it, even the BK ketchup packets.

 

It has the old factory L20 which runs amazingly well. Since it's a 77 it has drums all around so the very first order of business is going to be some stopping power. More to come.

I've got her twin! Same ugly mirrors! Yours is in better shape though. Mine barely runs. Good luck!

Lovin the 77's!! My longbox is the best datsun i have ever owned to date (#23) and love it to death, and definately recommend doing a 4 wheel disc conversion, much stopping power! Good Luck! Nice truck! Bill

Hey did you ever fix the electrical gremlins this truck had? I owned it for about 30 minutes and the throttle cable snapped on me. Looked under the hood and it was glowing red and melting through a hose.
