DatWifey Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Are you sure you're going to want to drive that thing once you get it running? It's so fucking pretty! :wub: I'd be afraid to own anything that immaculate because I'd be terrified of getting it dirty :lol: Quote Link to comment
carterb Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 More progress! More oics! Looking great!!! Valve covers are fun. I had a whole bunch powder coated different colors. I was going to put them on various cars and/or sell them but now I think I might just bolt them to the wall to decorate my garage! --carter Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 The wagon is super clean, but after all the time and effort that's been put not this truck I wouldn't do anything short of dailying it. Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Oh, trust me, I'm not saying that I WOULDN'T drive it, but I would have a hard time getting over that initial hump of getting it dirty and shit from dailying it. To me it's like getting that brand new (relatively expensive) snowboard and hitting your first rock with it, or having the first douche gouge the topsheet. That first hit is always the hardest. But, I would never expect anyone to put this much time and energy into something that they don't plan to drive the shit out of. What's the point if you can't enjoy it?! I'm just jealous is all, because I know that we'll most likely never have this dilemma ;) Quote Link to comment
greengoon Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 The wagon is looking so nice. I know you want wider wheels but I love the snow flakes in that color. Very classy and unique. I bet they fit much like my Infinity wheels did. The engine accents are perfect too. It all works so well. I feel inspired to start detailing my wagon now. Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 So you guys will have 4 Datsuns tore apart then.?? Are you i a competition with Indy as to who can disassemble the most .?? :poke: There is a ZX in Mcleary with those wheels on it ,,,when you get off the expressway turn toward town ,, then you have to take a left,, and there is a auto shop right on the corner,, you will see car melting into the ground on right side of driveway.. He wanted a crap load of money for that car because he said he is restoring another in a shed somewhere....but maybe he would part with just one cap.. You never know. Quote Link to comment

jrock4224 Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 fuct, i was scared when i seen this at the top of my content page... hoping my proportioning valve that been on ebay back order shows up this week...( i love buy it now... oh sorry out of stock would u like to be back ordered shit...).got bbababababbooster all cleaned up and coated the mounts..... master cleaned up although i may just buy a new one.... i got a dual master cyl..of unknown origin with my goon... its 7/8.....looks salvagable... but was considering putting that one straight on my 521 and its disc swap/ blue lake repair debacle....also coated my troy ermish steering parts and torsion rods to match .... don't know how i missed coating those.....all the rear trailing arms parts are cut and bungs welded, tabs all cut out....need to make my panhard bar.... missing a left hand bung...no homo...need to make front mounts ....they will tie into the lower seat apron and the stock front leaf spring mount...with the intention of being stuffed up in the body out of the way as far as possible... phixius keeps throwing the blocks and leafs suggestion hoping i bite...trust me i thought about it but since i am gonna have to raise the floor anyway i might as well finsih what i started..no stink bug.... I will admit though with out getting into detail... i have done a lot to severely complicate my life in the last 5 month's to justify selling the car ... but that was never a option..i would live in my non running goon before getting rid of it ...or my 521...i have a plan to get soem progress done... i gave up trying to make this or that... i just wanna drive her...or at least be the guy with the shiney turd that runs like crap and has to work on it all the time...shit i would cool with my wheel falling off at this point...sorry lae...j/k.....my boat trailer wheel has passed me in the fast lane twice....damn adapters....that i never tghtened down...musta been defective parts :rofl: i will go all indy and take some pics this weekend if we meet up...
