New World Datsuns...

I am going to be parting out a 1985 Nissan 720 cab and box, I am keeping the frame, engine, drivetrain, column/wheel, and wiring harness.
I don't need any of the cab or box, from the windshield forward is wasted, the doors back are good/fair, depending on what it is, the box is not that bad, passenger side fender well has a ripple, and a couple small dents, but it's not terrible, it also has a bed liner, it is a short box.
The doors, pass side has a couple small dents, driver side is good.
Here are some photos of it, contact me if your interested in anything.

That has a nice seat... someone should snag that...

It looks good, but when I sit in it I sink a long way down, but it looks good.

Also that steering wheel hub... Looks like it has a momo pattern. Save that. Everyone wants those things.

I am keeping the column, it's going in the new cab, wiring harness, everything electrical is going in a 1970 521 cab.

Brings a tear to my eye..

Well then you need to avoid the next few posts.


Starting on the interior

Wiring harness out

the interior gutted


The seat

More cutting, can you say convertible?

The bare frame

In my driveway ready to go away


Sorry Justin, it just wasn't worth fixing.

I still have the doors, the box liner, but in a few days it will all be gone.

But Wayne, if you ever need help Id love to come help and learn how you do all this cool shit..

We need to talk about how you lower a 720 truck, you have to re-index the torsion bars if you really want to be low like you were.
If you were to come over while the frame is bare, I can show you every step for your next 720, it's easy to explain when I can just point.

Well, all the sheet metal is gone now, I did keep the seat, I figured out what was wrong with it, and can likely fix the issue.

Justinberni you should take wayno up on the offer on how to re index etc.
It will prove very valuable knowledge in the long run,hands on is always the best

I actually do want to learn how. I know the basic idea of how, but not how to actually do it, so that'd be sweet Wayno, thanks!

I am going to be working on the frame this weekend, once it is back to stock configuration, I will be dropping a cab onto it, maybe Sunday for that.
I might go up to Tacoma Saturday to pick up some parts.
Do you still have my number, call me if you want to come over.

i like that curved shifter. Mine is straight up and down. It works great in the short cabs, kinda sucks in the king cabs lol. Gotta reach sometimes cuz i have the seat back.
