Dude! Sick! I’m jealous of your editing skills right out the gate and your thumbnails. Hell yeah! I’m stoked i subscribed! Looks like you got a lot of old JDM rust to deal with. My advice, keep in mind it’s a lot of flat surfaces and the floor plans love to pull and become poppy and noisy.
man thanks a ton for the kind words, thats super encouraging to hear and I really appreciate it! I will definitely keep that advice in mind, Im planning on tackling the floors and rockers this weekend, hopefully it goes smoothly!
Thanks dude, 300 is a huge milestone and I glad you were here for it! And yeah, if you can look past the mismatch paint it's actually a very solid candidate for a project! Now I just need to decide which direction to go with it
@LooseFab do you have an Instagram? I think a drag or a drift truck would be cool. I think I am going to try and make mine like a 13 second truck that I can use for drag and drives.
@@jeepingneatus I don't have one yet, but I probably should make one! I was never opposed to it I just wasn't sure if it would help. I'd love to see some pictures of yours, when I make an insta you'll have to send some my way! That sounds like a super solid, fun build plan to me!
@@LooseFab I have not, yet. However, I do plan on watching them! I have only one request, please please keep it as clean and OEM as you can. I think it was some spare door panels that were laying in the passenger side, those are probably worth a bit to the right person. A lot of those interior pieces are very hard to come by. I do plan on watching what you do with this little one, I love that generation of trucks. Keep up the good work!
@@Silencer051thank you, I really appreciate the kind words and support! I've always been a fan of these trucks so I'll try to do right by it! You think it should just be a resto and not a race/drift truck?
@@LooseFab you're welcome! It ultimately is up to you, but I would for sure turn it into a sleeper, I don't remember what the term is for it, but I believe it's called a "restomod" if you find another one that is in a bit rougher shape, I would turn that one into a dirt/drift truck :) You're welcome! It costs nothing to be nice and give words of encouragement to people :D
I hope so too! I have been letting it soak for a good week or two now so I'm hoping It breaks. I'm nervous of snapping off the crank bolt so I might try to get a pry bar on the flywheel. Thanks for watching!
HAHA when I heard your foot turning the fucking adjustable wrench I knew it was more of a bucket of shit than what mine is XDDDDD. I fucking LOVE those door mirrors what will you sell them to me for, if the glass parts are in good condition, and I will pay for shipping because I need door mirrors. Mine has the Weber carb conversion thing kind of going on for it. Also this guy I love on YT called Mustie1 loves to make these kinds of videos, he’s a super cool dude.
WHERE DO I FIND ONE? It bolts onto the bell housing and is comparable with the stock clutch and everything? I wouldn’t have to worry about any power steering, only coolant hoses, and a radiator and electric fan, engine mounts, the Goped Jesus only knows what else too lol.
I love and prefer the 521 series Datsun/Nissan trucks however also like the 620 series Datsun/Nissan trucks to. This one looks in semi decent shape here. With a little working over and a little welding to do, and sanding her down, priming it and repaintjing her, she should be a nice little truck to have and run. However PLEASE DON'T lower it to the ground, and PLEASE DON'T put thise ugly wagon wheels and thin tires on it either. You'll ruin the looks of this truck completely.

I love the old Datsun trucks, I could've had one a few years ago, I'm pissed that I didn't buy it, very cool.
Thanks man, I've wanted one for ages so had to hop on it when I had the chance! Thanks for checking out the channel!
I'm your 300th subscriber! Cool truck, it actually looks to be in great condition.

Can’t wait to see that thing drift!!!
I had a kingcab 620 miss it 😢 I also put miata seats in it and I used the miata rails just drilled new holes
i bet those seats looked right at home in one of these trucks!
@LooseFab you can us the part of the center console too so you have cup holders and arm pad
Keep it. They are hard to find these days.
They're cool little trucks and definitely getting rare.
Any Datsun around here are nothing but rust, I'd find a like year Z and swap it. I love these little trucks!
Did you check out the z Im building in my other videos?

@@Silencer051 we need more people like you out there! Thanks dude!
nice truck was looking for one but they are to far for me to pick up. would love to have one in my collection truck is not to bad,good luck
Thanks man! Excited to build this thing into a real ripper
Aw man unlucky ! I say stick with it . I think you can get it free’d up
I hope so too! I have been letting it soak for a good week or two now so I'm hoping It breaks. I'm nervous of snapping off the crank bolt so I might try to get a pry bar on the flywheel. Thanks for watching!

I’d put a spoiler on it, and paint some wicked sweet racing stripes
Man of taste
Wtf does a pick up truck rear wang even look like
We need to find out
Nice video
Thanks man! You should check out my other ones!
@@LooseFab we should chat, do you have Instagram or something?
Put a KA24DE in it!
That is actually a pretty good idea, I hadn't considered that! Pretty affordable drivetrain too
