1972 Datsun 510 (56k best of luck)

"1.8L L16 motor bored over to 2.2L"

So is it a l18 or l16 and why would you bore it over to 2.2l and not just go with a l20? IF there is that much work in the car it could be worth it, I just hate the box fender flares.

Good luck getting the car. I'll be passing through N. Cali in July maybe I should stop by and check out the car.
 
I hate box flares too. Bubbles are good, box baaaad..

So the Garage Queen comes home tomorrow. I should have taken a picture of the $4500 cash I got for the 4Runner today. Oh well. Maybe I will.

Man, I wish some of you guys were out here to revel with me......

PICTURES TOMORROW!
 
^^^^
im fereeks older brother.
down here in orange county though.

I knwo there is a nissan place that has datsun swap meets. I have offered for freek to go for him. i also hit the junkyard sonce in a awhile . half price weekend. and usually can find a few nissan 240/280 or what not. Thats where hit front brakes came from!
liek 50 bucks shipped ot him for the calipers.

But im a speed3 and escort driver. No dime.


lance there were 3 dimes at a tuner mee tin cerritos. 1 turbo rotoary. and one sounding liek a built l somethign. Didnt have a newer 4 sound had a sound of an older 4 buitl up. but they looked good!!
 
gbean, can't wait so ee some pics of it in your driveway.

Hj, I keep forgetting about the swap meet, but I don't have any money anyways. lol.

I wish I could go to the tuner meets, I want to see other dimes. Once I get mine running I know I'll get SWAMPED at the meets here because most people out here have NEVER seen a 510. At least I got the rear end on the four door, just need to get one tire one and she can go up for sale.
 
here is a link to my 510 thread. I brought it home last night (26th) it was dark by the time I got home. I dont want to really thread jack, so I decided my own thread would be best.
 
wow that looks really good. I almost when VG30. If I get a wagon in the future it will be a 6 in it.

lance here are some pics of the 510 a few month ago, just relaized i dotn have outside pics of it. or wheel pics.
the color is a stocjk color, and the motor is a stock nissan pickup v6 al stock minus what you see.
 
i think he said they were a bride ro reccaro. bought, brought home and stripped and re upolstered!
 
I need some suggestions for good donor seats for my 510, along with modern seat belts.
 
not that bad compared to other aftermarket seats. I think the brackets are like $65 each not including the seat. Turbo240.com can get them, and they sell the seats. Thats why it will be a while until I get them. I want to get the autopower roll bar the seats and some 5 point harnesses.
 
How goes the project wonder freek?

he has been on vacation since the 18th or so! HE just left cali tonight heading back home! he shoudl be home in a few days. HE ordered soem front end parts so he can finish the 280 front end! Then its working on rear and motor! from waht he said! Might change his mind or so!!! lol


See ya later Brother!
