Ehhhh just another truck

[metalmonkey47]

Yes, a Datsun!

I picked up the truck about 8 months ago now. This is her as she sat a few days before I drove her home. She ran like a champ. Got her home, and she sat dead for a few days before I diagnosed a stupid bitchass-ness problem she had.








Fast forward a few weeks. She sat like a truck still. A clean truck, but STILL a truck.







More coming...

[metalmonkey47]

On to the truckness.

She sat like this for a month or so. Clean and comfy. Almost too comfy so i had to ruin it...



SOOOO torsion bars are great. She rubbed the flares like a dirty girl.







The truck rims got boring, so I bought some stockers. Because everyone knows stock rims are sexy when the car/trucks 30+ years old.

[metalmonkey47]

Just some random bullshit, because a build thread is no good without random bullshit.








Back on track now, I picked up some 15x8's from a friend for $50. Rusty as hell, but I loved them.

[metalmonkey47]

Cool, so now this thread has bitchin rims!!! Couldn't get much better then that right??



Right.







Bitch in a scion cut across my lane in a last ditch effort to make a light and slammed on her brakes entering my lane from the far left lane. Less then 1/2 car length to stop. BITCH THE LINE WAS SOLID WHITE. Now that I've gotten that out, on with the story.

The truck was daily driven for about 3 months until I could fix it. (Dealing with legal/insurance bullshit)






Now that she's fixed, on with the cool stuff.

[metalmonkey47]

This is how she rode to Import Alliance last month. Gotta say, I'm lovin the harlequin.







Am I doing it right??






Randomness

[metalmonkey47]

haha man, it's weird having 8's at the back with like.... 4.5's on the front? Far from the norm.

what size tyres are you running on the 8's?

Playing around at an abandoned gas station. Like a BAWSE.
