Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Thanks guys! I'm glad i was lucky enough to get these bumpers for a steal. Well today i had another improvement planned... but it wasn't going well. So I'll just return to that another day. So instead I installed the correct shackles in the rear. Ace was nice enough to give me shackles and leafs off...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Haha I’ll post as I go. I haven’t done allot yet, but I did install a correct ignition and interior light... I also do a little something to the front. The bumper!! I had to polish it up a little and do some fitting. Overall I’m really happy and looking forward to getting more done. But for now eye ...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

So I’ve been working 12 hour day for 3 months straight and after a couple weeks back to normal... I am on “stand down” basically laid off till August. Which is very good news for the Datsun. I have a shelving unit of parts I haven’t had the time to install and a hole in the floor needing a new panel...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Finally figured out the perfect rear hatch seal! I got one out of a Kia Optima and it fits absolutely perfectly. Doesn’t need cut and looks factory

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Thanks dude, this is the second set I’ve had and I love them.
Yep, it’s all greased up and mounted. I didn’t have it on there good enough before, a shorted coil is an expensive lesson tho lol

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Today I was able to go out and do a little work to the B. I put in a new blaster 2 and an alstar performance hei. I added another screw to mount the hei and cleaned the metal underneath for a better connection. Then I pulled out the blue retractable seat belts I installed last year and replaced them...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Well my car had some more fun in the snow. The screw holding my hei backed out and lost ground on the back... then this shorted my coil out. It started up for a few min and died after I pulled out of my space. By the time I got it fixed there was 2” more snow. But in the process of figuring out the ...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Gotta be dedicated to a daily. Hell today I put a new battery in there... but the bearings are noisy on my new alt... so maybe warranty? Or maybe find bearings if it isn’t covered. It snowed the other night too, so I had to get some snow pics But I did find some awesome non retractable shoulder belt...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Well that was fun... I thought my water pump was leaking. Turns out it was the pass through the timing cover. Got the gaskets in the mail yesterday and started on it at 12am after I got home. Everything went smoothly... but it started snowing around 2:30 and I quit by 3:30. Ended up getting up and h...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Damn, you got pretty into it. The gas powered ones look like allot of fun. That glider looks insane haha did it climb the currents pretty well? This is only the second I’ve built. The first was when I was 15 and I’d do nothing but wreck it and fix it and try again haha I also have another in progres...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

It’s kinda rebuildable, but not in the easy way. I already pulled it apart and rebuilt the simple way. Not it needs some creative addition of a recess cut for a boring around the rod. I have a slightly more ratty way of dealing with it till I get something that’s going to work. Hose straight into th...

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Turns out the leak I have is from the heater valve I re did. The shaft is worn too much so it’s spraying out from there. Only one I can find for sale anywhere online is $100... expensive for what it is. I’m going to hit up a couple different guys I know, but I don’t expect to find a valve anywhere. ...

The heat is way better, but turns out I’m not done... there’s a leak and I think it’s the heater core.

Re: Converted is back 74 b210

Haha I actually didn’t notice the number change after they painted the lot a couple months ago. People keep making jokes about 69 haha till now I was confused. Next up will be some drilling and grinding to fit the Japanese from bumper. The u.s. housings are in the way. But today I had a major coolan...
