Kingman Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 He wanted me to share with y'all because this is a Nissan forum... So here's his Nissan/Datsun/GMC/Ford/Jeep/Auto Parts Store Special. It started out as a '77 Datsun 620, lowered 2WD. Then it was straight axled with a Dana 35 from a Jeep Cherokee with GMC 1-ton disk brakes, rancho springs, a Detroit locked Dana 44 rear end from I don't know what, 4.88 gears, Ford drivelines, motor and tranny out of an '88 Z-car, Jeep transfer case, 25 gallon Bronco fuel cell, old ass 8,000LB Warn winch, home made bumpers, and an UGLY ASS CANOPY that his old man likes. Anyone want a red canopy with 3 doors, 3 locks, and 3 different keys?? Yeehaw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingman Posted April 3, 2010 Author Share Posted April 3, 2010 thing is, it may be, um, different and uglay, but she'll run til the earth ends! Ugly?! That thing is a little cream puff! It is ugly but she's a good ol' truck. Gonna get a camo skin kit for it, it's gonna be sweet! As Nick would say "it goes over stumps like speed bumps." What a clown...

frecklecolouredbrain Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 It's an odd thing when something is SO UGLY that it's beautiful. But for some reason it only works with trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekazgtr1984 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 That's sick. With the canopy/cap off it looks pretty damn good. Some fresh paint is all it needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 Paint? What for? It's just going to be driven into more trees... I get to drive this little creampuff to Vancouver tomorrow from Carson (50 miles). Hopefully the oil pressure gauge line doesn't burst again and spray oil all over the cab again.

Mr.510 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 motor and tranny out of an '88 Z-car So it's a VG30E? If that's the case can you get me some pics of the motor? Most importantly where the steering column/shaft goes past the motor to the steering box. Many people send me inquiries on VG converting 620s but I've never seen one. Just looking it seems the steering shaft to cylinder head/header clearance would be the tightest point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 No, I typed it wrong and forgot to fix it. It's a Nap-Z motor. Z24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
