bananahamuck Posted December 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 (edited) about a month or some shit ago . Orange car still hanging with Mr. cooper but still moving forward BUT ,, although not everyone likes a big butt ,, here goes............. bro Fat510 1200 had 3rd gear pop out problem so as posted before went to rebuilder .. Apparently was a shifter arm got back put in to make actual mounting point on tranny reach to crossmember without moving crossmember .. Had to bolt new rear housing to block that was made for original tranny swap to find correct height .. Welp the i didn't notice the mounting on tranny had probably been filed flat.. so in tightening down ,, there was a loud cracking sound .. whoopies daisys underneath ,, not so bad ,, maybe some JB weld can cure that mess Top ... not so much ,, and this was after bracket was removed ,,, haha after making new bracket ,,, i switched old bellhousing back onto tranny and now good to go well it was real nice with a couple of assembly tips from WildBill ,, it's back to looking like shit but as good as new kinda... Bracket is so chewed up because bolts had come loose along time before we got it.. Burt itt won't be bolted there anymore anyways. was below freezing a few weeks ago when i did this.. i used this heat gun aimed under car and a couple 300watt halogen lights for warmth worked surprisingly well ,, haha After bolting up as originally done,,,, cut this exactly right height so could take crossmember out and make bracket . It was very cold so only saw about 15 seconds of welds ,, then hood would steam up,,, haha Bracket has since been ground to a pulp ,, and rewelded and painted with ,, thick ass paint so pretty much looks like someone that knows what they were doing ,,, did it We cut out for the speedo cable but never took oics of that, PICS FOR BILL weird dents were made from , Radiators are being stored on seat. .

bananahamuck Posted March 16 Author Report Share Posted March 16 (edited) Have you done any thing to the orange 1200 ?? Nope .. but check this shit out ,, yo Got "The Inspector" 1000 licensed so me and youngest drove the goofy thing around yesterday. Only back shots,, because hauling twins ,, fronts are a bit rustier looking but cool. First stop was neighbors ,, checking out the damage pulling a Datsun 70+ miles, on a rope, does to your sway bar mounts Then we went down to the bay My little dudes are 5'11' 200+ so i'm thinking there may actually be same or more leg room as a 70s Camaro Rest are pics with boys facing camera so no including those. .

bananahamuck Posted March 16 Author Report Share Posted March 16 (edited) Did someone say Datsun 1000??? MY neighbor JJ, you know him , you love him,, you have looked at his projects on his phone,,,, been a very busy SOB Heeeeerrrre's Larry!! naked with all paint sanded off Sealer applied .. extra fenders were prepped and coated for use as wall hanger / in case of emergency use Because of warm spell,, got painted way earlier than planned Newly re-chromed grill and vintage fog lights setup he bought at the swap meet 47-48 Chevy sedan tail lights seem to fit nicely He's still got a ton on sanding/ buffing of paint a huge amount of drivetrain shenanigans but closer .

bananahamuck Posted May 2 Author Report Share Posted May 2 (edited) Spent a day cutting up a 210 wagon for the 5speed and A14 to go in the Orangutan-sedan And it only took a year And yes,, by WA state DOT fine print , that is a legal trailer with no fenders, because mudflaps are as wide as , and as high as, top of tire ,, look it up bitch i thought i was bad ,holy shit Mah paw needs a rearend !! That's enough of that noise It's alot fuller of scrap metal meow , Since this is kinda a 1200 build thread thing ,, i will post a few of my son FAT510s 1200 ,, lol We went to Westport WA on a cruise with a few others ( its about 90miles one way) and afterwards we bolted to Grayland to check if locate had sent a guy out to find power on my cranberry bog. And stopped at my brother in laws place for some pics. Westport jetty type action out in the cranberry bogs \ tracks were removed on this bog so they could run bog buggy instead of happening to upkeep on rails. First year you could drive out there with a car without needing a 200 ft towline to get you out. Whoops how did that sweet 411 get in there?? THEN!! After what seemed like 15 god damn minutes of Austin Powers tunnel parking Riding the rails of justice man. Edited May 2 by bananahamuck 2 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 Looks great! Got enough axles on that utility trailer? 1 Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted May 30 Author Report Share Posted May 30 if it not for the scary trailer brake tongue , you could probably haul 2 F350 crew cabs if you could stand them up, and chain together. 1 Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted July 30 Author Report Share Posted July 30 (edited) Orange 1200 is still in suspended animation at the moment. SO Repacked wheel bearings on 1000 and somehow lost the dust cap .. I looked for it for about 3 days figuring i dropped it in grass of it rolled behind mess by compressor. But needed garage to make sure my 411 was ready to make a family road trip over weekend , so it had to be moved to it's normal residence . Cap is an odd size Not one of these fit A10-1200-510-411-b210-even a roadster one in there.. more than i describe because there's a pile of struts laying behind garage so guessing what the are. so i cut up a tiny bit larger one so it would fit It obviously wouldn't stay in there so i used Gorilla duct tape so i could drive around I drove it into town and all over hell like that last week. A few days later i found,, must have put there after cleaning to keep clean while i packed bearings It was about a foot and a half from door Much success Edited July 30 by bananahamuck 3 Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted July 30 Author Report Share Posted July 30 (edited) and since i post the neighbors 1000 in here ,, here's a couple more of that , it cruises pretty good now he is getting bugs worked out. Switched FAT510s 14" wheels onto 411 for going higher speeds on trip ,, and 205/60/14 in back , fit pretty decent Edited August 2 by bananahamuck 3 Quote Link to comment

So it’s ready Freddy to go . And headed to a location very near you . BUT . And I know we all like big butts .. I am pretty sure a sedan/wagon windshield won’t fit a hatchback Edited August 10 by bananahamuck 1 Quote Link to comment

Most of windshields are oddball 50-60s cars asked him about pricing but he hasn’t gotten back to me I’ll send you the screenshots , he sent , and his ad when I’m on PC .

bananahamuck Posted September 7 Author Report Share Posted September 7 (edited) So the other night Nate Givera-ah-ah ( not sure if exact spelling, haha) sent me a text about a 1200 sedan he was tired of parting.. At the price he sent, I thought he was joking and just venting.. so I kinda ignored . Couple days later he posted on Facebook for twice as much , so I told him I would be up that day.. it has tach , and pretty decent interior . Huge front sway bar and a Datsun performance rear sway bar ( he had documentation to prove) I think it might have NISMO head but didn’t take valve cover off .. other than that it’s a total pile of shit This is from yesterday up in Renton hills . I’ll post a couple more later Edited September 7 by bananahamuck Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted September 7 Author Report Share Posted September 7 (edited) He gave it up to me and FAT510 so cheap because he kept wheels and a ton of cool manuals and some NOS parts , Edited September 7 by bananahamuck Quote Link to comment
