    Cleaning out the garage to fit in the next project (70 Datsun roadster) and found the 50# bucket of rust I cut out of her. I had always intended to take a picture of it but then lost it in my garage

haha yeah they wanted to trade me for a payment on a new car.. i told them no i wouldnt trade it for any of those new cars.

Cleaned up the push bar and mounted my NOS fog lights... will mount in Spring.

Awesome thread.  I just read it start to finish.  You're making me ache for a BRAT of my own.  You did an epic job on yours.

Have a Weber and front struts ordered and enroute, picked up rear shocks locally... All go on this week along with wiring the third eye and my NOS fog lights and hope to have it completed this weekend or early next week... (I won't hold my breath)

what's the little brass thing to the left of the crank then?

That would be a block heater for cold climates.

Do you know if the connection is on all ea81 harnesses? I have a couple of those but never have found the plug.

It always assumed those were dealer added options. It's just 3 wires to a 120 volt outdoor plug. Napa should have a replacement cord I would think, it looks like the same style I have seen on many engines.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about in the picture of the brush guard... yes, that "brass thing" is a block heater. All the EA81 motors I have, have them.
