  1. I have an early 260 door you can have cheap. The outer skin is good but as with most doors the bottom seam is not optimal. Can snap some pics for you, PM me if interested.

  6. View Advert 14x6 Western Turbine Wheels, 0 offset Pulled these off a project car. Wanted to see if anyone is interested in them before I take 'em to the scrapper.

  12. Hello, late to the party but curious if anyone has some second hand info on the Moroso oil pan? This looks VERY close to the Nissan Comp one I had at one time, and it was around the same price circa 2000.... p/n 20976 https://www.moroso.com/oil-pan-datsun-nissan-l24-l26-l28-road-race-baffled20976/ EDIT/UPDATE: I reached out to Moroso, this is currently out of stock but will be available later this month or early the next.
  13. Hello, long time no talk on this forum, dragging up a thread from the dead, even though my original pic is no longer visible, thought I'd post this car is now for sale: can be found here: https://hsrrace.com/classifieds/
  14. Ouch!! Glad you made it out ok, thanks for sharing. Similar experience myself, not going as fast, but LF suspension failure, happened right as I nailed the brakes, tire rolled under the fender and immediately took me off the track driver's left (right hand turn approaching), on dry grass it seemingly did not slow down one bit... the worst feeling knowing you're just a passenger at that point. Didn't go airborne but went into an embankment. I had additional front bracing and the chassis was ok for the most part. Sore shoulders from the belts but that was it. The ego was bruised more than anything. Anyway the experience really cemented that the car could easily be a write off at any time.
  15. Thanks, but just to clarify, some people might look at that link and wonder WTF we're doing, what I was really after is this, p/n 40-4185-075 in particular: http://ubmachine.com/balljointspins.html Which enables the use of a relatively common spherical bearing & housing, like these: http://ubmachine.com/monoballhousings.html May not be worth mentioning, but if there's enough room (depending on the brakes there most likely isn't on the s-30), you can also go with a "screw in" style ball joint with a threaded sleeve: http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Steel-Upper-Ball-Joint-Sleeve-K772-Style,2126.html http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Howe-Racing-22320S-1968-89-Chrysler-K772-Style-Upper-Ball-Joint-Steel,7935.html Also, to further complicate matters, it appears the K6024 ball joints have changed dimensions over the years, now requiring a taper ream to retrofit on an older truck for which it's originally intended. So if someone were to pick up an OEM unit off an old Chevy to compare, or perhaps the one linked above, they'd probably be more confused, see notes: http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Speedway-1963-71-Truck-K6024-Style-Upper-Ball-Joint,2245.html
