Immortallol Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Hey whats up Ratsun community! Im new to this so check out my new project. I used to have a 1999 VW Golf 4 door Then i got a 1985 BMW e30 And now i got myself a 1975 Datsun 710 Wagon!! Hella stoked because i love this car and everything about it makes me happy! Its got cut springs in front, leaf springs in the rear with lowering blocks. I got a rebuild l16 engine with ~55k miles or so (body got 75k or so) straight pipe to magna flow muffler. its a 4 speed and i got some 13 inch deep dish steelies. so far i love this car more than anything and will keep working on it until i die hahaha but yeah 2 questions! how do i take off the rear bumper>???? aaaaand are there any fender flares that would fit this fatty ???? if so can anyone post some info ? i would really appreciate it! My name is Andrei and i love ratsuns! 1 Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 theres no flares for it specifically, but you can make Z car or 510 flares fit. Quote Link to comment

RedBanner Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Welcome to RATSUN! To remove the bumpers, climb under neith and look at the rear frame rails, there are 2 bolts that go thru either sides, that hold the mounts to the frame. May be anther 2 bolts on each side behind the bumper to the body. Quote Link to comment
RedBanner Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I would focus on the rust under the rear windows, Quote Link to comment
Immortallol Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Yeah do you think cutting out rust and welding steel plates ( that fit the missing spot ) over the metal and then sanding it down is a good idea? Only until i get more money to get new rear quarter panels ! Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Yeah do you think cutting out rust and welding steel plates ( that fit the missing spot ) over the metal and then sanding it down is a good idea?Only until i get more money to get new rear quarter panels ! find someone to help you that knows what their doing (ie: NOT your "buddy that can weld" or that friend thats "used bondo before") its not necessarily hard, but if you dont know what your doing youl do it wrong. and it sucks having to try and undo things lol if you where in the PDX area Id offer some a hand.

Immortallol Posted December 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Hanging out with my buddy (240z owner) in some parking garage and playing with the drifter RC car haha Quote Link to comment
RedBanner Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Oh no... What happened to your hood? On second thought, I don't imagine the rust is going to be a big issue. Portland washington??!... I'm going to go grab some smokes..... I'll be right back... Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 PDX like Portland WA?? No, he's in Portland, Oregon. PDX is the airport in Portland. ;) Quote Link to comment
Immortallol Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Jessee's 240z The view from the inside the car. Its just an idea that one of my friends had, the other kid from my town has a e21 and he rusted his hood too. I really like how it looks with the orange. Planning to garage the 710 after i get a little more rust on it haha Quote Link to comment
