about to start changing up my 76 gonna be a great project.

 

the Inside

 

You find a valance or grill yet?

 

you have a very clean truck!! i wish mine was that clean oh and i like the exhaust. im totally jealous

 

go put them wheels on!

 

i still have yet to find the valance or grill. but I'm looking intently on buying one. my grill now has two very small cracks thanks to my father... he decided to push it out of his garage by the grill We were rebuilding the carb so it obviously wouldnt start and he said "take the brake off" next thing i hear is..."well that was already there." grrr. but i need a 76 grill and valance then its on to a custom tonneau cover that hooks around the hooks on the bed. then lowering 2 maybe 3 inches. tint HiDs then paint it will take a while but be worth it.

 

im anxiously awaiting spring so i can put them on... but for now i matte blacked the steelies so the rims didnt look so bad.

 

here's my grille

im bummed it has two cracks on it and i need a grille from 76 if anyone knows of a seller.

 

additional photos

a few more pics i love how the last owner mounted this thing.

 

ziptie tech!

 

okay so im on the market again for a 76 grille seller had a change of mind so does anyone know of a seller or have any idea of where to get one?

 

got my new plates.

here they are waited 2 months for em.

 

got the 18's on for now...

waiting on my year appropriate grille to come from toy boy. already sent him mine.

 

nice plate man

 

you need some major drop with rims like that. lol. just trade me wheels and everything should be good.

 

new grille

new grille for the truck.

 

okay.

so i know it will take a lot of coin and a lot of fab work but which would you choose to go in your truck? ( i dont want to pay a $hit load of $ to buy the car then pay a lot for insurance so this is an easy less expensive alternative)

 

I like the idea, but it may not be worth the effort. If you're wanting to do something along those lines why don't you look into a nissan sr20 or someting. That would be much cheaper and the engine puts down tons of power. And it would fit great on top of everything. Or even a KA-t would work good. I'm working on putting a 2rz in my 80 right now from a tacoma that i'll turbo.

 

i thought about that too but the whole idea is to get it AWD i live in utah and RWD trucks are no good here. it snows too much. and by the time i get one of these two motors i will have a different daily driver anyways. ive just always wanted the sti or evo but in utah the first version sti goes for around 18k

 

Oooooh ok i see. Well sounds like a fun/interesting project then. Good luck.

Oh and don't forget about awd skyline powertrains, rb20-26 motors. Insane power
