Wikipedia has gear ratio charts for the various W trannys. I don't know much about the 59.
Just cut a hole in the roof and shift up there. Maybe pay a poor kid to ride on the roof rack and shift for you. Tap the roof the number of times...
And it's only a few holes to drills. Get some big washers on the nuts and bolts. Seat swaps are pretty simple.
You know you're a mini trucker if you scotch brite your head after you shave it. Gotta have that satin look lol. Kinda liking the que ball look...
That's pretty slick. And yeah, it's the big accent ball off the side. Need a 12x1.25mm lug but to epoxy it to then its ready lol
I thought you meant the kind that hides the wiper arms. A contoured bug guard would be cool. I rock a roof rack on my 78 too.
Sounds like a plan. I want bigger back tires too. The 225s don't cut it.
The dual chains came on 81/82. 83/84 had a single. Get a front cover from a 81/82 or a 20r to fit the dual chain. Those wont work on a laser...
Like said the main reason the 20r head is good is it has a smaller chamber than the early 22r head. It raises the comp to around 10:1 on stock...
The blood ball rocks! I am gonna make a similar one from a glass ball that broke off a bong :lol:
Those are deep gears. Must be planning a tall tire. I have 225/45/17 rears.
That's rad. Never thought of a golf ball. Every time I steal a pool ball at a bar we end up losing it or using it for target practice lol. Never...
It's like ultimate frisbee every time you hunt for a gear!! I have rocked lots of different ones and my favorite always seems to be a round top...
I think I love the ratsun style more than the cars lol. If mine wasn't so pretty i would rock it like that. Lol
I have a motor and an engine attached to my trans. The 12 volt motor is for emergencies and starting the gas motor. I just wish I had a third...
It's not a ripoff. Some people wanna pay for a good motor and not build one. I just have a hard time justifying high prices when they are fairly...
If he says it runs but can't prove it bring a spare battery, a distributor, coil and igniter. You can wire it up and gravity feed the carb....
If I hear it run 500-700. Otherwise I wouldn't give more than 350. I spent 300 for all new pistons, bearings, an fluid pumps on my short block....
I am not a huge fan but they deff have their place in the culture. It was a cool find. And it found me :D
Here's that 510. We had the same antenna lol.
