OK, so I've been into Mini Truckin' since the 70's.. yes, I'm an ol' fart. Anyway.. I have been into Datsun 620's for quite some time and have currently restored one that I drive from time to time. I plan on getting more into restoring 70's mini trucks the way we did back when. Back in the 70's the "Van thing" was in. Everybody had one. Same with mini trucks. We'd put the shells on the back and paint and do 'em up just like the vans. Fender flare kits, spoilers, shag carpet, 8 TRACK TAPE, etc. My plan is to do a Chevy Luv next. I've got to admit, it's harder to find clean examples to start with as opposed to the Datsuns. Every thing I've seen so far has been hacked up pretty good. So anyway, I'll keep you guys posted. I'm looking forward to my next project, and I'm happy to have found this website.. it's looks like a keeper! 8)

Toodles..

Butch (73super)
