Zito249 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Does anyone have tips or thoughts on bucket seats? I read that some people spent a bunch of money on some that don't even fit or are comfortable. Anyone know some or have some that fit comfortable in a 1974 standard cab 620? Quote Link to comment
Zito249 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Also, places I can buy new stock grill, hood, piece behind the hood where the wipers attach and front bumper? Anyone selling? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Beware thick seats in a standard cab. You can't move then back enough and tilt is impossible. 1 Quote Link to comment
Zito249 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I was thinking of going a classic bucket seat. They seem small enough to fit and be comfortable. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Regardless, watch the thickness. Remember that high maintenance girl friend you had. Don't get a hard on for one and find out later it doesn't fit for comfort. Quote Link to comment
Zito249 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 Yes very true lol. Hoping someone can let me know on their trial and error history on some that didn't work and hopefully some that are working out for a standard cab. Quote Link to comment
GRpufnstuf Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I think JC Whitney and other online joints sell most of the front sheet metal. Probably not the cowl though (windshield wiper piece) I bought the front apron for mine and it fits ok I guess. Better to find original datsun steel if you can. I put porsche 914 seats in mine. They are thin and mostly comfortable depending on whose butt you ask I guess. There are many seat installs written about on Ratsun. A google search find Jaguar, honda, Porsche, Volvo, and many others installed. Quote Link to comment
DatLady620 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I got my bumper off rockauto.com I have seen hoods on their website as well. Quote Link to comment

Zito249 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Does anyone know if Toyota or Chevy 6 lug rims will fit a 74 620? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 About 15 seconds typing what 6 bolt rims fit the 620 into our search function resulted in this... http://community.ratsun.net/topic/42315-rims-for-620/ Time to start learning how to master the search function button.

Most of you questions can be answered there. Quote Link to comment

I only use the mobile version of the site and I always only have this web page open on my phone, just always reload this page and that's about it. Thanks though. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 It's no problem. The rims question and how to lower the ride height and just about everything you can think of have all been asked before and answered. A search will turn up all kinds of answers and you don't have to wait. Quote Link to comment
Zito249 Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Does any one know of any compatible window visors i can use on my 1974 620? I been looking around the forums and all i can find is the stainless steal ones that people are selling. Is there any other car models that will work? Plastic or metal. Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Do the 620 factory bucket seats bolt into a 1974? Quote Link to comment
