1979 datsun deathtrap
14 years ago
So~ I'm not sure how many people know this but I do pizza delivery for my job. I work at the Renton highlands pizza hut. I've been there maybe 5 months now and I've blown the head gasket/valve seals on my 89 acura, seized a smog pump on a 92 caprice and messed up a 87 Buick century so bad i'm not sure whats wrong with it. So because I've done this I'm down to a 1979 datsun 620 pickup truck. Being this old it of course has some issues, like, no power steering, it pulls hard to the left, the fuel gauge doesn't work, the temp gauge might work, it leaks brake fluid making the brakes super touchy or useless depending on the level, its loves to stall, the seats used to be springs my dad have to shove a couch cushion under the driver side so your not sunken a foot into the seat, there's no tach, and the engine is very efficient in turning gas into noise but nothing else. But I gotta admit, I love this truck, its scary as hell but its just not scary enough for me to enjoy it. The fact that the engine is as old as it is and my grandmother drove it everyday and it doesn't leak a drop of oil is just astonishing. Might post pics of it later :3
Although the belt buckle was halfway up my side since i sunk into the seat so far. And i had a metal bar digging into my back. And it turns fuel into noise.
