Hello.

[NorskeMann82]

Hello. My name is Randall. I'm new to the site, but I've owned a Nissan since I first got my license. Currently I am in posession of a 1986 Nissan 720 pickup. She's in rough shape, but with a little time and money, I can have her looking as good as new. My first car was a 1985 Nissan Pulsar NX.

Hello and welcome to Nico!!!!!

[NorskeMann82]

Thank you. Just a quick question, how do I post pics?

[Razi]

You'll need to host the pictures, I like to use Photobucket or Flickr.
Then you post the direct link to the picture between image tags, which look like this

[NorskeMann82]

Thank you.

[NorskeMann82]

Let's see if I did this right.

Let's see if I did this right.

You'll want to go to this page

Then right click the picture and click on Properties and use the link in the "Location" section.

Like so.


Looks like the truck will need a bit of work!
How's the rust situation on the chassis?

[NorskeMann82]

Thanks. It sucks being new to this. There is very little rust actually. A lot of what looks like rust is actually Oklahoma red dirt. The only rusted spots I could find is on the rear wheel wells and surface rust on the frame. Nothing that can't be taken care of with a little work. I did notice that a lot of the vacuum lines are rotted, plugged, or missing, so it runs a bit rough, but starts and drives with no issues. I bought it 4 years ago for $500.

[Razi]

Haha we all start somewhere.
You'll pick it up quickly, no problem!

[NorskeMann82]

Razi, thanks for the help. I was searching on google for a possible solution to the front right of the truck sagging and was directed to a post on this site about torsion bar adjustment. That's the quick version of how I stumbled into this site. LOL

[Razi]

No problem!

Yes, that's how I found Nico as well.
I was searching for information about the 240sx and our Q45 and Pathfinder.
Always got good results to this site.

Enjoy your stay!

[Razi]

Yes!
I'm about to go to sleep right now infact. :P
Bye bye.

That sucks. Anyway welcome to NICO,this is a good community to hang out in.

To be fair though, the Z series is a pretty tough engine to kill..
