Well guys i am new to Ratsun, not THAT new to Datsuns in general, but am to the cars, i grew up in high school playing around with 720 series trucks,Z engines,etc(still got 3 in a bush haha)
I have never stepped back into the L series much, nor knew much about them
Well i acquired my first datsun car the other week from a fellow member here(Radio,im sure you all know him hahah judging by some of the posts ive read and ive seen his posts around)
Anyways i purchased a 1970 510 Sedan, 4 Spd Manual, has 50,000 miles on it.
The cars in medicore to rough shape, i am just happy it runs and drives right now so its fun to putt around in.
Was pretty dirty when i got it, but i am cleaning it up as i can, take a look at the pics.
As for plans right now, just get a weber on it, (buddy has one with plate yey!)runninging right, fix some squeaks, then start with things like, wheel bearings,brakes,balljoints,sway bar endlinks,other bushings that wear with age,etc
Then i want to drop it, throw on some old wheels, and maybe in the very distant future put a shitty turbo on just for fun, This is more of a side project as my main car is a 09' Mustang GT that i am dropping a boosted CHP 298 stroker into(hoping for around 500whp) I Also have a 77' Honda CJ360T that i am wanting to go Cafe' style with, so as you can see i got lots on my plate haha.
Anyways everyone likes pics! so here they are, i threw in some of the stang and bike for good measure.
Some shots after a little paint correction, full pics to come at a later date!
Let me know what you all think!
Thanks.
Dustin
