zerow Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 did some work on the plate today to removed most of the old stickers but left these 2 :D I thought I was going to be the only one with both the '73 and the '74 stickers on the front. Now, I'm jealous... Talk about "droppin' that ass", you took it to a whole other extreme. I'm going to be doing the same, just to get new bushings in all around. And disc brakes...:D Looks good, now to try to find one rim to make all four match up. Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) I thought I was going to be the only one with both the '73 and the '74 stickers on the front. Now, I'm jealous... yeah i took it down to the 74 then took a closer look at the month one and bam there was the 73 sticker :P Talk about "droppin' that ass", you took it to a whole other extreme. I'm going to be doing the same, just to get new bushings in all around. And disc brakes...:D i had similar reasons for doing this like i had already replaced the diff the u joints wheel cylinders brakes shocks and wheel studs it was just alot easier to swap the whole subframe then take it all apart individually Looks good, now to try to find one rim to make all four match up. im just getting a different set of rims finding one of these discontinued rims is not somthing im in the mood for that and i would rather have a nice set of slot mags :D Edited April 5, 2009 by bonvo Quote Link to comment

Guest jaimesix Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 Cool you have a second rear cross member. You can get it sloted and the exhaust pipe hole enlarged with ease,when ready, you can swap it in the car w/o having to disable your ride. Slowly but steady your 610 is getting closer to being roadworthy. Jaime._______________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment

Guest jaimesix Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Dang! Great find....Pick your parts in what city??? I would like to get a few parts ( suspension ) and others. I need as second pair of tension rod brackets so I can frankenstein large stronger sway bar brackets. I do not know if you know 160J, but there was a 710 at Pick your Parts ( Stanton) , I got some parts from it. Mostly parts for friends in need, not many stuff for me. It was a sedan 2 door , so most of the stuff I was looking after for my ride was slightly different, like the fresh air ducts.:( The fenders were toasted...I did not need them, but I would had gotten them in case they were good, not this time though. Let's keep the 610/710 alert on!!!!! Jaime.___________________________________________________- Quote Link to comment
