mutiny

well been awhile since update, got a shit load done. 2litres in an running as is the 5 speed, got brand new clutch on teh sucker too. purchased me a nice woodgrain gear knob from trade me for 10 bucks too, money well spent. had to weld tabs onto the gearbox crossmember to ge the floor change in, but apart form that everything pretty much went straight in. brought another complete b1600 for the wellside, is primered now. looks fuckin scum. i love it big hole in engine bay parts ute ute looks fuckin tough with no tray will have pics up tommorow of tray etc, couple interior shots and what not

prob rather pay a bit less, not after anything fancy as its jsut gonna have bikes thrown in under it etc if you get what i mean

whre can i get a Tonneau cover made up for my b1600 in chch?

haha wats cracking dylan ya scum bag, skinner here, thought i saw this thing driving round black. looking good cheif

is about 75mm at corssmember sitting on bumps, rears going lower

pretty much just getting it mint and reliable before i sell it aye, need a van

not using that deck any more, gonna keep flatdeck for awhile. mates lined me up a proper 77 wellside for it. yeah thats me, you wanna edit out our street name for obvious reasons, cheers bud

not quite as low as i wanted so will be going lower, much lower. started putting motor in today, chanigng jets round carbs as original carb was shot so using the b1600 carb with the 626 jets, all should be swell had to hone out the altenator brackets as the 626 one had to go becuase it was internal reg and cant be botehred fucking around. sealed up sump too. all should be go for tommorow, have some decent pics soon

he speaks the truth bro, give me a pm if u want another one

and cheers to danger for being a good cunt and sorting the shipping out for the motor

well thought it was about tiem for a bit of a update. old 1600 isnt happy, time for 626 2l and 5 speed floor change time. scored motor and box for a steal at $110 off trade me. also got a radiator from good old mazfarm for 20 bucks in mint condition. also lowering time. got my leaves reset 3 inchs lower. lowering tommorow so expect pics. finally got me a warrant today too, only failed on lh idler arm bush, 14 bucks later and some flash red bits of nolathane and im warranted. stoked

did ya have a look dude?

have you still got it? can you look underneath at gearbox corssmember and see if tehres a plate wleded out one side, would be much appreciated

anyone put a 2l 626 motor and box into a b1600, did u need to mod the drive shaft and gearbox crossmember? cheers

theyre not as good as they used to be

needs hotwires

saw this the other day at tuning place, looks fuckin sharp dude

off to super cheap for some stop smoke then is it

and make sure u can sort out the immobiliser if it ahs one

well awhile ago i scored a nice tidy wee 1977 mazda b1600 so thought it was new time for a nice daily driver/project. its done a genuine 114thousand ks and not in bad nick for a old farm ute. here what it looked like when i first got it at this stage i hadnt decided what to do with the deck as i didnt want this hick looking piece of crap, so i picked up a piece of shit 1980 wellside for a hundred bucks(well the mrs paid for it anyway). thought id spray it up, and will chuck it on while i make a nice tidy flat deck or find a tidy 77 wellside for it i then picked up some new wheels for it, rims cost me 200 and tyres were 90 a corner, couldnt really complain, 195/50/15s. i think they do the job mint. was kinda semi thinking about getting white walls put on the tyres but not too sure yet, what you guys think? thats about it for now, over the next week it will be getting slammed with reset leaves in rear and 2 inch blocks, and a coil in the front, see how that comes out, wanna try and get it as level as possible sitting at 100mm. and as for the sounds, ive got a sony mp3 player running into a set of boschmann 6.5 components and a 1200 watt sony 12 under the bench seat getting fed by a 1400watt amp, sounds go mint, couldnt ask for much better Discussion: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/21567-mutinys-b1600/?hl=b1600

should have left it connected for awhile so you could ring it, they mayt have turned it on at some stage

lol ever tried taking a close up pic on chrome?

mmm its just the rust sorta sits below the chrome in pits if you get what i mean, so would more or less have to sand it right back, could be my imagniation, will try tommorow, these are the whels

anyone know how to get rid of teh real small rust pitting in chrome wheels, tried autosol and ive tried steel wool and had no luck

wonder how wide it is in teh car, could get away with some fwd offset rims mabye
