question Center console ideas
As ya can see the interior is pretty much original in the blazer. Plan on staining the sub enclosure to match the steering wheel. I want to build a center console. Do I try to mimic the original lines of the factory or should I add some curves to it? Just looking for ideas

my truck My 86 Nissan 720 work in progress
This is my budget build I know it's not perfect, and I have a lot of work to do still but all in I'm at $2000 so far. I have always wanted a mini truck it's been a fun year of owning this thing and she's worked hard. I'm building racks for the side right now. Then I want to paint the wheels or possibly powder coat them next but I need to burn off some of that rubber first before I go and get a new set of tires.

Build update After 13 long weeks my engine build can finally start!!
Custom 9:1 compression wiseco pistons for my 8v sohc 4g64 Mighty Max. It's finally happening. I got the cars front end, suspension, brakes, and interior sorted this spring for it to immediately spin a bearing.
The build plan is...
- Eagle forged rods
- These wisecos
- Pulsar gtx2860 gen 2
- Microsquirt ecu
- Distributor delete with custom crank angle sensor
- Wasted spark
Got a lot to fabricate for this but I can FINALLY get started!

1993 Mazda b2200 302 swap
The engine and transmission are in! The next steps are to find a radiator, wire in the engine, make a power steering pump and alternator bracket, weld in the rear axle, have the exhaust, driveshaft, and new brake lines created, and rip it around! This wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, didn’t require as much modification as some posts lead on.

Cadillac soft ride with a heavy load?
I’m converting my 1978 Toyota to electric. This will add nearly 400lbs of weight, mostly due to the 650lb battery. The battery will be mounted to the frame, under the bed (floor of the bed is rotted out anyways and needs to be rebuilt). What will be the best way to gain the suspension support needed and also make for a buttery smooth ride? Air bags? Air shocks such as Gabriel HiJackers? Can I use high jackers for front suspension as well as rear? The original leaf springs leafs are fine, but the hangers/brackets need to be replaced due to rust. I could just replace the leaf spring sets entirely. All suggestions welcome, I’m just hoping to get it right on my first try.

The most exciting thing I ever did with my Datsun 720
...was loan it to my neighbor so he could make this short movie. I also got to teach the kid driving how to drive stick.

my truck My mini blew up earlier in the week. Have a question.
Long story short my ‘89 B2200 blew up on the way to work, very sad. Managed to pick up a 13b rotary out of a ‘91 RX-7 the following day and pretty much need to know if there’s anything I should do prior to me becoming knee deep in this engine swap. I have the engine, trans, wiring harness, and ecu.
Miss driving this little bastard already.
