Project 720 #2

Ok, so back to work. Yesterday on Tuesday, 13 August 2013 I went to my friend's place with my cousin to observe. It was a big shock when he saw the engine in bad condition and rear suspension halfway (yes my friend is quite lazy) My cousin said that the engine oil has put too much (overfill) caused the filter to surface with some black oil. Well sorry I'm not pro on engines especially this old engine as some of the things this SD23 used was no longer used on today's cars. Added on they shouldn't install the engine before the suspension is done (my friend problem again) which means this engine needs to be overhauled again for price of RM1k - RM3k. That's what I heard.


Rusted out crank pulley, timing belt need to be replaced, fan removed by me as I look for a new one, open head etc


I had measured the Datsun 720 rear light, it is not replaceable by big trucks LED lights as they are 2x longer than 720. So Plan B, replace LED bulbs.


A screw from the rear light housing (damn I lost it somewhere again) nut is 8


More treasures to be found


Classic aircond panel. Imperial III? I don't get it...


It was a best thing when you have a CD player in those days.


Datsun 720 exhaust


Fuel tank, together with classic snail horn.


Haunted mirror (just kidding)


Horn collections


A part of a tank's wheel chain found from Tanjong Lobang Beach in Miri. Believed it was back then to WWII.


"Wegaco Wearner Made In Malaysia"


Honda CG125


Waiting for bus home after salvaging some parts.

I didn't took a photo of what I salvaged so I picked up some stuffs such as BMW horns (save money from buying a new one) 2 car number plates, left Datsun 720 signal lights (finally found it at rear cabin) and rear light lenses (screw replacement and lens cleaning)

Thats all from me. Thx for reading!
