Default very first project.. 71 n600

I finally got around to find pictures of my 71 n600,, I bought it back in october
couple pictures are for org owner from who I bought it from, from when he org bought it..

barn kept, was clean up by from the owner I got it from.


looking for org steering wheel..lol.. look at that red carpet..lol


being of nov..after some trial and error buying different wheels, I finally got what I like


mid nov. started to wrk on cleaning/rebuilding the calipers

totally rebuilt, soon to have brakes

for better stoping power I went with ss brake lines.. believe it or not these n600 have only 3 rubber brake lines. and yes I did have the third brake line made in ss


jan came around
my buddy and I got 80 70% of electrical stuff working.
as of right now im in process of looking for motor parts.. I met a friend that came down to dallas on work business and took a look at my car and gave me great pointers.. on what to do next..

that's the end of it so far.. yes ill keep posting up pictures as I go.. wish me luck as its my first restore.. and if any of you n600 guys still have yours please chim in and give me more pointers

Wow. 12" tires ! who knew? These are golf cart tires not designed for the street, no DOT stamp, bias, and hard to balance. Have you driven them yet?

No not yet.. im in process of swaping out the bad cam on my red 600.. I also ordered timing chains for each car.. I have to post up more pics this week..
im not really worried about them not being DOT, which every car I get running they will be just ride around town nothing major except to car shows..

I have to find out why the fuel pump isnt pumping gas to the carb.. I hear it clicking, possibly clog some where

Started looking at the cam and found out from a friend that it was f*#kup so I bought another cam..


Then I had bad luck because the cam holder broke due to messed up cam.. so needless to say the cam was going to put up a fight..
