- I finished the prep work on my 1968 Datsun 520 so that I could start the engine after being rebuilt. The engine did fire up and run but I have some good news, and some bad news.

Nooooo....!!!!! This has been a great series. My first vehicle was a 1966 Datsun 520 but with the single headlights... the model just before this one. I hope you can find a solution. That engine is just to pretty and nicely put together to get junked. Thanks for the videos
It's not over yet. I'm pretty sure it can be saved, stay tuned I have a few options to consider.
I'm broken hearted. All that hard work.....At any rate, looking forward to much more that yiur going to do with this truck. Hopefully we all will get to see much more.
More to come for sure!
Dang that sucks! But I like that window in the float bowl too!
Sucks but could have been much worse, several good solutions to fix it.
That’s a downer for sure. All that work. I feel your pain man.
Thanks, it happens, could have been much worse.
Benny, that crack can be welded. I've brazed cracks back in the 60's and 70's but you can stick weld them with nickell rod, too. Area to be weldeded needs to be pre heated. I've never done the stick weld process but I hear it works well. Dave
I have nickel welded cast before and it's quite a process, but I think there might be a better solution. Stay tuned good to hear from you !!
Hey Benny, that sucks but it's better to have the crack on the outside of the block than inside!
My thoughts exactly coulda been much worse
Favorite quote “Great part is, I’m not afraid of failing (which would seem inevitable in this situation) and I do believe a blind pig can find an acorn every now and then”
Love your videos man. You’re so real and genuine and not afraid to try something you haven’t done before and put it out there. I got so excited when she was running! Then… the crack 😢
Nice keep it coming motivation I'm going out to my tent that I call a shop today to mess around with some stuff happy it's up an running now ready to see it on the road 😂😂 👍
Thanks! Enjoy working on your projects, I'm looking forward to getting it on the road too!
Great vid without a doubt 😅
I watch a fair number of you DIY guys on utube
You are unique for me in that you improvise with just about all you do which is why I watch first
Your down home personality is a major plus for this Ohio guy
Just fun
Thank you, means alot and keeps me going!
Thanks for sharing your process. This video might save someone some time. Good content
I learned two new words today. Magnaflux & Benny
Thanks, it's not over yet. There are several good solutions to repair this issue, and I will discuss them in the next video. Stay tuned!
@@kentuckyyankee 👀 I will.
JB WELD
I have a couple solutions
I'm so happy that the radiator modification worked out. It's a bummer about the cracked block. Can you braise cast iron and would it hold if it's under pressure? I appreciate you powering through. I've been defeated by a failed rebuild and priming of a 78 GS1000 front master cylinder lol
Thanks, I have several options to repair the block tune in tomorrow morning. I will be going over them. You're never defeated just stay with it!!
Dude!
Great build.
Gonna JB weld it?
Bin it?
Thanks! I'm deciding what option to take.

That’s some nice welding on that radiator!
What is the welding technique you used called?
I call it "dumb luck" 😂😂 I honestly was lucky that it worked out as good as it did I need more practice to become consistent and better.
@@kentuckyyankee Well your dumb luck is working hell of a lot better than my dumb luck, turned my welder into a plasma cutter instead 😂😂😂
@@99domini99 😂😂 Keep at it you'll get it!
damn click bait for a crack
