UPDATES for Saturday 12 / 06 / 25
Greetings to all the new and returning visitors -
I have been digging into the C10 and the Z car and you can scroll through and see whats happening !
I will make it a point to insert the newest images first so you dont have to scroll through some you may have already seen - Remember though if you want to see where I started you will need to scroll through to the end which is really the start - go figure !
Cheers Tony
1964 Big Window Short Bed Wideside C10
Hello to all you car guys and girls around the world and welcome to the Projects section and my 64 C10 progress !
Well guys and girls - As I mentioned on the home page I have my new Vintage Air HVAC system in and it is the new Gen 5 series which has some improvements - we shall see as I progress with the install .
I also got in my new FlowKooler water pump with HP thermostat and will be installing that as well . I want the truck to run as cool as possible with the usual 100 degree Summer temps down here and the A/C system blasting away !
Stay tuned for the craziness and some new pics next week / Tony
Z Car is below for you to scope out !
1970 Datsun 240Z / Series 1
Hello again to al the new and returning visitors - glad to have you stop by for a visit / You can scroll through to see the progress and latest images !
So one of the challenges with this Z car is that most of the important parts for the steering and suspension have to be painstakingly cleaned and of course the rust removed so as to be able to repaint and install new ball joints and bushings etc .
The next phase will be the rear control arms , strut tubes and rear wheel bearings and of course the pin kit required for the arms to the tubes .
As I continue to patiently progress I will add more pics and details for you to check out !
Talk to you soon Tony
Check out my KZ1000 LTD below
1978 KAWASAKI KZ1000 LTD
This is the bike right off of the trailer in the first 2 pics with 20k original miles and as you can see it is a real cherry unit !.
So as you scroll through you can see the bike with my personal mods done. My goal was a cleaner more streamlined look for the LTD .
I did the Sport bike handle bar conversion with correct clutch and throttle cables and grips / front turn signal swap to headlight bucket with F/R shorter signal stems / 1 inch front drop with new adjustable kick stand / My custom leather seat / removal of grab bar / redo all red stripe on body / new reverse megaphone muffler / oil and filter change / chain adjustment and more of course !
The bike is super clean top to bottom and runs rally nicely - Smooooth and powerful !
Lets see what bike I get next - stay tuned !
Tony
