Re: My 66 520 Resto Mod

Thank you Rob. My design and measurements and my brother's metal fab and installation. I can not weld more than spot welds.

Re: My 85 720 Parts Truck

This truck had a severely bent frame that also twisted the cab so Tom and I pulled all the the usable parts and I scrapped the rest of the truck.

Re: Wiring harness

The problem you run into with the aftemarket harnesses is with the way the turnsignal, brake, tail and emergency flasher are wired. When you want to to a trailer with a Datsun you have to run a converter box because of the way these lights are wired. Datsun wiring harnesses switch the gound instead ...
