Beaver Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Not sure if project thread worthy so i'll just stick it in here, the latest addition to my (small) Datsun empire 1983 C20 Super Wagon! 4 speed column shift, a15. Has a fold up back seat so is a legit 6 seater. Has a sweet sunroof too. Plans are summer cruiser so already half way through building a multipiece bed for the back, which will be easy to remove/stack up so can still carry humans and bikes etc. Will also keep an eye out for some cheap jap wheels to spruce it up a bit. Huge thanks to Old Nathan for bringing it down closer to home, was a hoot driving it back from Masterton over the Rima's, dominated them. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 These vans are so boss! My old one would still pull off the clock even with 215/65/15's on it. It needs a turbo though. you could do a whole turbo conversion on it for under $500............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegreatestben Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 my old man daily'd a metallic brown quad rectangle one of these. Fantastic van, have want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 Have been churning away getting it ready for summer. DOnt look too close at my (not so)handy work. They dont make dams out of wood (anymore) base is 3 pieces and the legs screw off so its easy to dismantle and stack up in the back of the van. Can then fit back seat in and still cart people etc. Will also be able to load up the mountain bikes etc when heading away. jeah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 so you have to remove seat to fit bed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 Yeh, vans not long enough to have seat in place haha. Although I can take seat out (only 4 small bolts, as its a fold up seat), set bed up, and remove it all again in probably 10 mins so its not really a drama.

yoeddynz Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Cool. Vans rule. If only one vehicle was allowed it would be a van. Does every thing a car does and then more. Love those lights! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 have pined these vans since high school. So choice. What a combo eh. A15, quad lights, and a place to fornicate. What more could you want? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
