New World Datsuns...

I didn't sell the truck. Got most of the sas done. Went through a period where I wanted something older and fast so I toyed with selling it but never could go through with it...

Well guys. I redid the shackle hanger but that was about 3 weeks ago. Life's been in the way lately. Things are starting to slow down so I'm hoping I can resume work

All the welds got deep penetration and heat. It'll get a good shakedown run.

Made a lot of progress this weekend! Springs new bushings. All mounts final welded. Painted. Armored axle. http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/804EB506-86F9-49BE-9240-D041E4A44359_zpsblguftbt.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/984C32BF-5352-48EA-B984 ...

Ok I'm exhausted so I'm gonna let the pictures explain themselves http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/7FC88C82-A239-4664-AE13-73FE545B9D4B_zpsviqfz0ld.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/F844F90C-1981-416A-B005-7729B9CC6A9B_zpsmvtmshdu.jpg http://i1026 ...

Been busting ass on it a lot lately! Frame cleaned up. Frame extended 3 inches. Hanger welded on. Goal is to have it on its own weight by the end of the weekend!!! http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/35D0BE42-89E3-458B-AE19-8AB5D09A0E99_zpsoziz9kwd.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com ...

Started working on it again. Nothing picture worthy just some cleanup grinding

Was a very successful weekend. Still a lot of grinding and cleanup work to do but the new front crossmember and axle hanger mocked up! http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/4B8120AA-D1C5-4A01-9CFB-28DC0A094272_zpsdngqqv54.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy ...

That's the plan. Do a little after work each night

Not a whole lotta progress but did get a lot of the mounts cut off and ground down http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/EE979E2F-F37F-4C97-80B2-A83A7BA14890_zpsoeykij0l.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/A14CF4A6-C1FC-4D67-B48B-D238D73C39F7_zpsze506lzd.jpg

So tonight I finished removing all the factory front suspension and steering. Start cutting all the mounts off tomorrow and grinding the frame smooth and clean!!! http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/1768C77B-EAB4-4332-95C9-9562D1F86C96_zpsdlf5cot7.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com ...

They'll be out soon. Need to get the front done. Then turn the truck around and rip out the rear

So I started ripping the ifs out to make way for the Toyota axle!!!! http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/6CBF0255-1FFE-40CD-BD69-D5881240F99F_zps4xexaetn.jpg http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/341DEC4E-A7CC-453F-9952-E3D6DC4513FC_zpss8xlcyon.jpg http://i1026 ...

Way better than driving a hour one way to work on it!

Got a little bit more done. All accessories on front of engine mounted. Radiator in. Fans wired. Hoses made. Plumbing done!!!!

It's a tight fit that's for sure! But I'll take the big tires off and out small ones on for rollers so I can get it out when the suspension work is done

So big day lots of moving. But it's at my new place. Won't be doing to much to it for the next couple weeks because of moving and all but it's here and in the garage and I'm extremely excited!!!! http://i1026.photobucket.com/albums/y329/curtismundy/EDC55A7A-01DF-4DC7-9FED-06400CFBF229_zpsbvtztj7d ...

A duplex off Olympia in Kennewick. Like a block from where I'm at now but way better place

Of course! Once I'm moved in and settled!

Moving into a house this weekend with a garage! No more hour drive one way to work on it. Lots of progress will be made soon!!!!
