Bagged620bulletside Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Hello all this is my first Datsun project and I'm pretty stoked about it i have alot of good ideas and plans i have come across just being on this forum for the last couple weeks. Little story on the truck. So i traded my 1983 Chevy s10 for it after getting bored of s10s. (it was my 5th one) I have built several bagged s10s and i currently own a 03 with a LM7 5.3 in it. My plans for this thing is tinker around with it for a bit till i can drive it back to Michigan when i get out of the service next october (then it will be cut up stockfloored and bagged), being that it has no rust at all. The datsun has 110,xxx on it and runs pretty good has a few issues but what 30 year old vehicle doesn't? Z22s, 5 speed with a weber carb. So far i have dropped it some and cleaned it up a little i am currently working on getting the stereo install finished, i am also getting a set of titans off egay along with some tires. Wanna get some little things done this weekend like honda hatch hydraulics on the hood new shift boot new shift knob little odd and ends then start getting the interior painted. On with some pics. the day i got her LOL AT EXHAUST ( that has been fixed) Currently for sale in great shape no tears chunks missing or anything Lowered with the stock 14s on torsion bars uncranked in the front and 3" block out back. wipers gone Quote Link to comment
