harlow426@mail.com Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 I suspect that they sold a lot ‘cinnamon girl’ 720s up here in Washington, Charlie. I have seen more than a few in my color- and harlows.. First Brown truck started my lifelong partnership with datsun/nissan p/u's. Looked good b-4 I stuffed it into the back of a volvo. Felt like crap when I upgraded to the next 720 and it got the claw a the scrap yard. Wasn't anything good left on it...parts still live on in my daily. I'll never b with out a datsun p/u or 2 or 3!! 1 Quote Link to comment
harlow426@mail.com Posted February 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 As long as the 521++ transport goes smoothly.....I hope 2 have running by Valentine's Day....like ten days or so. After I take the time to spit polish/detail etc it will look GOOD! Still on a quest 2 find a primo front bumper. May end up buying another truck I spotted just 4 the bumper. Hoping there is one in the pile of 720 stuff I have yet 2 inventory. Gotta get up early and start the 521++ re-homing process. YES I'll have pics of the 521 asap!! 1 Quote Link to comment
harlow426@mail.com Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Yay or Nay on the grille option? 1 Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 It's a 4X4 grill, it's all about personal preference, is that black paint over chrome, if you could get the upper and lower cross beams to look like the side markers, it would look better. 2 Quote Link to comment

harlow426@mail.com Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Still not had a chance 2 get back to this build. It is the cleanest/most-complete non-running truck in the driveway. City can't gripe about it...been focused on eyesores, possible city code concerns. These wheels and tires probably will go onto this truck and the 'dishes back to my black truck. have centers 1 Quote Link to comment

harlow426@msn.com Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 What is this setup? Wheel size? The hub caps look good on there. Early 60's Chev/gmc factory wheel(s). Believe it or not those wheels have been on every 720 I have ever had(miles and miles and TONZ of payload). I have never even balanced them(no add on lead)..my pops' has a old May tire machine. Hubcabs are 70's era universal/aftermarket. 235-60-15" tires. Can't wait to drive B3#.....never had a front swaybar in previous trucks. 1 Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I am looking for a set of the older chevy wheels like that. Let me know if you come across another set please. 1 Quote Link to comment

Nobody but me will ever see it. Couldn't stuff it in dirty....wood of bugged me everytime I thought about it. 1st thing on my agenda today is to get on my back with hot soapy water and scrub the underside of the cab.....follow up with heavy coat of carnuba wax. Some of the suspension stuff needs a scuff and hit with semi-black. Debating whether or not to throw in the power steering 'box' or stick with it the way it is. :hmm: Really heating up outside....gotta get 2 work. :sweat: Wish me luck ya-all......LOTZ 2 do! :unsure: Wish I had a clone of myself, or could get tele-kinesis to work. :thumbup: 1 Quote Link to comment
