My little "hot rod" has 195/75/14s on it right now. I really wanted that "stock" old rod look. My dad put some stripes on it and I thought that the tall skinny little white walls would look about right. I think that if I were not "going" for that particular look, I would run more like a 185 or 195...something with a more aggresive profile.

Cool! My truck is lowered 3 inches and has no rubbing problems at all. It carries the "stock" look pretty well. I hope that I get to see your truck up here soon!

The old CL125A in the background is a 1968. I had to sell it a while back to help finance a move...sweet bike though. I kept my 1977 CT125. Thanks for asking.

ratsun, I thought it looked like a late  60's bike. My 2-wheeler is a '67 CL77, 305 Scrambler; I didn't get much chance to ride last year, working on my 521, but this year it will be different. They are sweet bikes. John

ratsun, These trucks look good with wide tires; on my first 521 Pick-up, I ran 15" Chevy Blazer wheels with E70-15 Polyglas tires, with the Chevy dog-dish hubcaps. The wheels were painted to match the truck color, and they looked great, and handling was greatly improved. John

I agree with Jade:D I like the photoshop action on Ratsun as well. I like the faded paint look...my Simca will most likely never be painted, just because of the cool patina! Nice lookin 320s guys.

Hello, I just joined the forum and I I just bought a 520 last saturday for $300.00. It is all there with a froze J13.I can email pictures to you. Not sure how to insert a picture here yet.

I had a 1970 521 with a 1600 in it. Did a swap to a Z20 5 speed and then I could pass cars on the freeway.

Great forum Thank you,Charlie69

How did you get that combo to line up? The mounting area on a Z20 trans is tilted to match the tilt of the NapsZ engine. Didn't that make the L16 lean to the passenger side?

I really like your 521! The time and $$ you must have put into it has got to be unreal.
