My little green 521

Post by Hooligan » Thu Aug 22, 2013 5:19 pm

Well, I'm here. Most of you haven't met me as for I am fairly new to the Datsun world. To start I'm Bryan (aka Hooligan). I'm not here to spread the drama... lets just say that there is another site that I don't much care for as to how things are handled. With that said.... here she is

Picked her up from a buddy of mines father - he was the original owner. Paid $50
Image

Image

Washed her down and removed tha canopy
Image

Image

Got her dropped down a bit and did some trading for some Titans
Image

Image

As she sits I have bought all new brakes. Did some grinding on the hubs and installed new studs. Also picked up and stripped down a L20

Welcome, Hooligan.
I have loved your truck since the day you put it on Ratsun.

I am tickled to see it, and you, here on NWD!

Not a whole lot of an update but did manage to have a somewhat productive weekend.

Managed to get my hands on a damn clean passenger door. This is after I did a little stripping
Image

Also got the L16 and 4 speed yanked out
Image

Picked up some Wagner 4412A fog lights. Using them for that and not just yellow high beams
Image

Also scored some 720 4x4 leafs from a local yard for $50.00
