Rockatansky620 Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Hi all, i'm new tot he forum, and i have a 1973 Datsun 620 pickup. I've had a lot of vehicles, maybe close to 50 or more as i used to do some buying and reselling. A buddy of mine needed to liquidate this thing while he's over in the desert, so i gave him $100 for it and now just have to go scoop it. I'm located in middle Georgia, so if there are any more locals, post up! Quote Link to comment

Rockatansky620 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 I plan to try and go pick it up Saturday or Sunday. It has a little rust here and there, but it was due to sitting in a field. Not sure where i want to go with the truck. First thing will be getting it running obviously. Going to try and rebuild the carb and get rid of that old school distributor. Quote Link to comment
Rockatansky620 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Also anyone have any idea of factory style offset and backspacing? I'm more than likely going to put black cragar soft 8s in 15x7 on the truck with some raised white letter tires. I like the stock car look, as you can tell by old wagon. 1 Quote Link to comment

This is one fine looking wagon! Love the Southern look, don't get that much out in the PNW. Welcome to ratsun lots of help available, just keep asking and searching. Quote Link to comment
CharlieBucket Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Welcome man, There are alot of GA members. Also a decent size community of old Japanese car lovers. Lots of toyota/mazda etc. Check out this site www.oldsoullife.com It's not as active a forum as this one, but will have info on local meets from time to time. Quote Link to comment
Rockatansky620 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Yeah, i assume there are some Atlanta members on here from over at importatlanta. That site just has a bit too much of stuff i don't care for going on these days. If anyone is curious, i'm Midlifecrisis over there. So anyone on that backspacing? Im thinking going 15x8s in front and 15x10s out back with those sweet flares in the for sale section. Quote Link to comment

Rockatansky620 Posted October 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 w00t! Going to pick this thing up this afternoon, then going to come home, drink some Milwaukee Best Lights and start tearing into it. Anyone have a part number for the Pertronix kit needed for our trucks?
