Re: 1971 Nissan Patrol from Mexico

Kyle, where did you send the p40 to be rebuilt? I know there are companies that rebuild the p40 but they are more of a industrial application. Thanks and good luck on yours

Re: Mechanical Fuel Pump Kits

I just sent mine to Now and Then and they did an amazing job. Quick turn around and for $109 I practically have a new pump.

Re: Proud father of a 67 rag top

Thank you! I just picked up two boxes of old parts from the original owner. He kept great care of it and it doesn't hurt that he was a mechanic too. I've been trying to figure out how to upgrade the brake master cylinder to either a double barrel or much more improved single. Upgrade the shoes as we...

Re: Proud father of a 67 rag top

Re: Proud father of a 67 rag top

Thank you RiverPatrol, I would have never figured that out. Like I said I'll eventually paint it. A local mechanic talked me out of adding an electric fuel pump.

I spent the last six months scouring eBay, hemmings, Craigslist, BAT for a FJ40. I need a daily driver so it has to be mechanically sound and in need of little work.
