well i hope i dont get banned for postin up the ol' ratsun! lol

this is my 76 620 kingcab. i bought it last halloween from my dad for 500bux.

it got a L20B 2.0l with a 3 speed auto slushbox. its also got a motorcraft weber wanna be carb and an old hooker header with 2 1/4 exhaust. its got dealer AC too...

Image

this is what it looked like the day i bought it...
Image

the luv and the dat...
Image

after i bought it, i drove it for a week or 2 and then parked it cuz the starter took a shit, and i still was more into drivin the luv. finnaly the luv started shittin out on me, so i put a new starter on it in the 20deg weather in january and have been drivin it since.

i did lower it some after drivin it for a while...
Image

Image

... but i didnt like it that tall. so i lowered it some more and put some stocker 720 wheels on it...
Image

Image

i also had painted the frontend so it wasnt so mismatched. after a while though, i wanted it all one color, so messed around with some rattle can colors and finally found one that matched right out of the can. the rustoleum burnt orange was a damn near to-the-tee match...

Image

so now that i had it all one color and looking good, i decided i need to notch the frame. ridin around with a monoleaf and 3in blocks just bangs on the frame. i was tired of that...

Image

here it is as of may. it still looks the same, just that the ass end is lower than the front now...

Image

now ive been havin some problems with it here recently. the header that on it hangs way below the frame. so with how low it is, im always smackin it. ive broke the header twice now.

now ive got myself a non emissions exhaut manifold. ive been startin to build the new headpipe for it now.

heres what ive got so far...

Image

Image

Image

Image

heres what its gonna look like...
Image

so thats it for now. ill keep updated on here as much as possible.

I wish the Chevy Luv had a king cab option. You will have a nice.
