spudly13 Posted September 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Thanks man! soooo clean cant wait to see it at one of the meets, great job man! always nice to see locals doing it big! Started playing with brake lines, its kinda fun until you mess up a bend. It looks alright for doing it all by hand but im gunna go get a bender and redo it i think. i dont like the passenger side. it looks like shit becasue i made the vertical part to long. 7 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 ill take a look at them tomorrow! Soooo.... Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted September 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Soooo.... I played with the track that's bolted to the door and it got a lot better but i think the wheels are just worn out because itss still really sloppy compared to the other doors, i looked at another door and those wheels have an extra lip on them these are missing. I'm thinking new regulater because it also doesn't have enough tension to hold the window all the way up Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 it also doesn't have enough tension to hold the window all the way up Worn out rollers do that too. But yeah, sounds like you need to replace the whole regulator... :hmm: Quote Link to comment
crewy Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Running hard lines are always a pain in the assignment especially on major bends. Cars is looking sic Quote Link to comment

mrbigtanker Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 In the pictures you can see the difference between the key lock and the door handle, also is the license plate lights not done, it looks different from the side angle shot. Nice car though coming along really nice. Quote Link to comment

Jrock, if you werent a three hour drive away i would have gladly brought them down to you! haha im not really happy with the powdercoat. the color is fine it just kinda looks like shit in a couple spots. mostly the bumpers. and its a 200sx trans 1 Quote Link to comment

Get into the ol round round racin, its a fun hobby and with a Datsun, it will be pretty cheap. Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 He did say 'pretty' cheap :rofl: That thing would be perfect for the hornet races at Evergreen if you have the time. :D 2 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 HAHAHAHA, you said racing was cheap! That's a good one. Having done some going fast and turnin left it can be cheap, as far a racing is considered. Redeye is right, that would be a kick ass hornet car, friend of mine had a first gen celica that was raced at a similar class at spanaway speedway (before it got shut down and turned into a housing development) and it did well Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted December 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yeah, we'll see what happens with it, for now its sitting in its new, dry home until my other car is done then ill take a serious look at what i want to do with it. i just couldnt pass it up for 400 bucks! 2 Quote Link to comment
hobbes_the_cat Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Good negotiating on that one wasn't he asking 1k? Did it come with the old L motor? Maybe some vintage speed parts? I really like the wide steelies too. Quote Link to comment
Spoona_Jay21 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Like the new one! i would just build it as a freeway screamer! Ahem... i mean a complete track car for use at the local circuit..... 1 Quote Link to comment
