Hello everyone, I have been lurking for a few weeks in anticipation of bringing this IV home to start its resurection. I wasn't sure which forum to post to but since this alpine doesn't have an original engine I chose modified alpine. The engine is out of a 510 datsun and was running when it was parked in 1988, I'm thinking I'll just try to get it running and deal with the other mechanical and trim problems first. Apparently it has no brakes or they are so bad it wouldn't stop so thats where i'll start. Also I think it is a positive ground although I don't know for sure, what are the ways to tell? Would the datsun engine run with positive ground? Should I change it to negative ground? This is a daunting task I am undertaking and i'm sure this forum will be an invaluable source of info, just don't laugh too loudly at all my stupid questionsWe named our project "Clifford" because although its not that BIG its definately a RED DOG! I tried to upload a pic with this but its not working for some reason, i'll try again next time.
