decided just to paint the frame flat black

Post by **laid53** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

heres a pic of the front, I cut off the stock upper arm mounts, notched the frame for the tie rod, c-notched the frame for the bag, and made bag mounts and a-arm mounts, alot of work for the fronts of these trucks

Im glad you decided to keep the truck. Your suspension work is top notch. Sux that the front of the Datsun trucks need so much fab work to fit the bags.

Post by **laid53** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

cant wait to get some paint on this truck and start cruising it again

Post by **Pac. coast Datsun** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Wow very kool! Any rubbing issues up front?

Post by **laid53** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

I dont have tires yet but so far theres no rubbing issues, I tubbed it big enough to fit 19's up front and made able to lay out on 20's in the rear

Are you selling your old wheels? what size are they?

I guess you decided not to sell the truck eh?

Post by **laid53** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

Ya I was only selling it because I needed another work truck, but my dad gave me his s-10 so now im just trying to save up some money and find some time to get it back on the road again, hopefully I can have it painted by forbidden fantasy, and my old wheels are just 15" frontier/pathfinder wheels, but I already told my friend he had first dibs on them, but if he doesnt get them then ill put them up for sale

you said it has the rx7 engine in it, what generation is it and how much did you pay for the engine?

Post by **laid53** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

I got the truck already with the rx7 engine, i was told it is out of a 87 rx7, im not sure how much the engines go for

Post by **dudespencer** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

would you suggest me putting one in my 320? have you had any problems with it?

Post by **laid53** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

I havent had any problems with it, it fits really nice in the engine bay and has plenty of power, it is really fast and reliable power, i have seen a couple older rotary engines go for a couple hundred bucks, you will just have to cut up the firewall alittle and make the trans tunnel bigger

Post by **dudespencer** » Wed Dec 31, 1969 5:00 pm

awsome thanks i think i will go with that
