As the title suggests.... I no longer have use for my 720. Here is the thread explaining nico-s-autocross-truck-retired-t546514.html

In the meantime... please feel free to use this thread as to some of the parts some of y'all might be looking for. I know for a fact there will a strong Z24... a Weber 38DGES... and of course much more. But leave a few hints here as to some of the parts you guys might want off of this thing. It's getting a hefty makeover and a lot of stuff will be irrelevant :naughty:

Hi,

I'm new to this forum and also recently purchased an '84 720. I'm looking for a little more power and it seems you might have a few parts for sale. Lmk if you've got anything I can use, thanks.

Considering it only has about 3,000 miles on it... it won't be going for dirt cheap. Haven't really come up with any prices yet, though, sorry.

I will let you know... A lot of this stuff will be coming off, though, but I just don't have a timeline yet.

Hey PEZi,[fbvideo][/fbvideo]

Don't know the history of your truck but would be interested in learning more about it and what mods you did that made it more fun to drive. I'm in Colorado Springs, are you also? I'd like to see the truck and hit you up for a few tips.

I am pleasantly surprised at how decently this little truck handles and I haven't really done anything to it other than some different wheels and tires. Desperately needs some additional power though. For a cross-flow 2.4 the motor feels pretty anemic. I'm thinking header and a Weber but want to hear from someone with some experience to help me avoid mistakes or wasted dollars. I'd like to replace not only the carb, but the intake manifold as well.

Any and all ideas and input would be greatly appreciated

Anything you need, let me know. It'll save you money to not have to pay shipping being in the same town, so that is a plus. My mods are somewhat extensive, though, and are a little hard to list. Feel free to send me a PM and maybe drop by sometime to check it out. In the meantime, check out the v. 2011 thread I made here post6039314.html#p6039314

Hey, thanks. I'm very interested in meeting you and seeing your truck. Not familiar with this forum and didn't see how to PM you unless you mean on fb? My email is sfmichaelmurphy@yahoo. Lmk when we can get together and discuss some mods.
Much appreciated.

The PM feature will appear underneath my screen name and car listing on the left. You just have to enable PM's through your user control panel. As far as facebook, my page is directly linked on here, also under my name and car listing on the left (its the one with the planet looking thing).

Tried to PM you but control panel says I'm unauthorized. Maybe I need to be a paying member? Regardless, I sent a friend request on fb, and my email is listed above. Hit me up if you would, I'm looking for parts and advice on mods.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Nope, don't need to pay (we don't have a paying members thing here anyway) you just need to enable them to use them. Here is a guide as to how how-to-enable-the-personal-message-pm-f ... 90214.html

Hey PEZi,
I have a 85 4X4 K-cab and I need some body parts. I have a leaky cowl. I need the plastic sleeve that holds the cowling from vibrating. Also how much for the outer belt strips for the door windows? I have been reading you threads and found some good info there. Thanks!!
Would you know where I can find heavy duty torsion bars for my truck? I'm not having much luck.
Thanks for any help you can provide

Im assuming that at this point, 8 months after the initial post, you have probably sold everything. Got anything left, Pezi? Such as dashboard?
