Here's some pics from an all datsun show this last weekend, and some pics of me mobbin' down the freeway. I'm rockin' some 215/40-16 Nitto Neo-Gens on in now so it can lay out again finally. Threw down some flat black to hide all the shitty body work, and almost finished putting diamond plate in the bed.

I like how you kept the Datsun on the gate keeps it more original.

very cool 620 project you got going, i gotta couple of questions ...

1) you said you used a 720 spindle, is it a drop spindle, and was there anything you had to modify to make the spindle work or was it straight bolt on.

2) what all is envolved for the rear disc conversion

very nice
