Stoffregen Motorsports Posted July 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I know the price may seem high, but you can buy a real piece of crap for $2500 and dump 5K into it, or just buy this one. And you can't beat the patine this one has with it's original body/paint. Link to comment

fletchmpoon Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hopefully he's doing that 720 front clip conversion..... Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Sorry guys. My life has been crazy trying to get it all done. I have 17 vehicles here right now, half of them being customer's, and I've been burning the midnight oil. Cool is 6 miles south of Auburn. No I don't live in Auburn Lake Trails. I've got some property to the south, hidden back under the trees. I'll post some more pics of it today. I do have one guy interested in it who is willing to pay the extra to get the front clip installed. If I do it I will post it under "320 Balljoint conversion". Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Here are pics of the worst parts of the truck. There's a dent in the right side door and cab and there's a small rust spot on the driver's side rocker panel. And here's a stock dash I have for it too. Some of you guys have asked about the steering wheel. It is a Moto-Lita three spoke wheel on a hub that I found in a wrecking yard. It has a chrome horn button/center trim from Lecarra to replace the plastic one that came with it. These wheels sell for around $300. Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Here's a pic of the motor with the head off. I took it out last year to diagnose a fuel-in-the-oil issue, pulled the head off expecting to find broken rings. Found it all to be ok. The stupid fuel pump was the problem. Broken diaphragm letting fuel into the crankcase. Notice the dollar bill on top of the motor for scale. (The bill is a fake!!!) Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I sold the truck today and the buyer wanted the frame clip so I will be doing that work in the next couple of weeks so look for the write-up here on Ratsun. I have owned the truck for over a decade so I will be sad to see it go, but now I have just made room for my next project... Link to comment
