  1. New tires and wheels mounted - photo time! Now that's an A+ fit right there!
  2. Uh oh! It's been a year since I've posted. Except for the last two weeks - I've driven Slowpoke just about every day - and have had to perform a few more maintenance operations as a result... Let's see now - where to start. Did I ever mention I installed a wide band to tune the SU's? No? Well I did. : ) But that's not what I was going to tell you. What I was going to tell you was that I wanted to run some different wheels on Slowpoke. I have a set of Hayashi Techno Racing wheels with new rubber I had ready for my VG33 Wagon I can't seem to make time to work on so I figure'd I'd try those but I was pretty sure they are too wide for the 4dr. Either the wagon rear end is narrower than the sedan or I had this rear end narrowed. I don't remember. Because the wheels fit just about perfectly back here! But if I try them on Slowpoke: They put the emphasis on POKE! So that's a no go... But I had a set of 14" Hero Shuttles in my garage which I thought would look pretty nice. They fit much better Up front as well I think we can work with that... For reference, the Techno Racing are 7" wide -1 offset. Hero Shuttles are 6" wide +10 offset. Now that that's settled. I needed to find some matching rubber. I usually like 185/55R14 but I didn't want to run any negative camber in the back and I still have 510 struts in the front so to avoid fender rubbing, I chose 175/60R14 tires. 14" tires are slim pickin's these days by the way... Time to see my buddy Jeff with the tire machine!

  4. White 1400DX Bluebird 4dr 2,000,000 Yen https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k1171447896 Nissan Bluebird 510 Rare Current car inspection: Possible / Test drive is also possible Delivery: Direct pick-up possible, land transportation arrangements possible Payment amount: Costs not included in the winning bid price I was planning to clean it up and ride it, but I was busy and couldn't do it, so I decided to put it up for sale. [Product condition] Vehicle condition: If you connect the battery, the engine will start and you can drive. There are many paint chips, rust, and holes. There are two keys, one to open the door, trunk, and fuel tank, and the other was the key to start the engine. Notes * Since it is an old car, we recommend that you check the actual car. * There may be scratches that are difficult to see in the image, please understand. * If you would like a detailed explanation, video, or photo, please fill in your contact information in the question column. * After the successful bid, there will be no claims or returns. * Since it will be listed from a car shop, photos and videos will be taken and sent during business hours, and the actual car will be inspected. I will answer any questions you have as far as I can and to the extent that I know. * Land transportation arrangements are possible, but please pay the land transportation fee yourself. Please ask if you have any questions.
  5. Orange 1600 Bluebird Standard Coupe 159,000 Yen https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h1171612340 Nissan Bluebird KP510 Paperwork included Restoration base or parts This is the restoration base vehicle for the Nissan Bluebird 510SSS. It's a rare vehicle and one that I personally like, so I was thinking of doing something about it, but since it would cost a considerable amount of money and I no longer have the space to store it, I decided to put it up for sale. The documents will be a cancellation certificate and a transfer certificate. I don't think the facility has been in operation for about 20 years, and I haven't seen anything, so I don't know. The exterior has a lot of rust as it had been left outdoors for a long time, so I think you'll need to be prepared and spend some money to fix it. Since it rolls, I don't think it will be a problem to load it onto a truck. The interior is dirty as it has not been cleaned. Some parts may be missing. There is no key so the handle is locked. We will inspect the vehicle in person, but since I also rent the land, I will verify your identity and contact details in advance by checking your driver's license. Demolition of the space we are renting will begin in February, so we will not be able to store the items for long periods of time. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us using the questions box and we will answer to the best of our ability. However, please understand that we are not a professional company and may not be able to answer difficult questions. Because this is a vehicle like this, we ask that you inspect the vehicle in person if possible, but if you make a bid without inspecting the vehicle, we will only bid after fully understanding the condition of the vehicle. (note from carterb - this is not a KP510 and it is not a SSS)

Silver 1972 1400GL Bluebird 4dr 102,000 Yen https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v1171630256 Nissan Bluebird N510 L14 Base for restoration or for parts This is a Nissan Bluebird N510 restoration base car. I decided to put it up for sale because restoration would likely cost a considerable amount of money and I no longer have the space to store it. The documents will be a cancellation certificate and a transfer certificate. I don't think the facility has been in operation for about 20 years, and I haven't seen anything, so I don't know. The exterior has a lot of rust as it had been left outdoors for a long time, so I think you'll need to be prepared and spend some money to fix it. Since it rolls, I don't think it will be a problem to load it onto a truck. The interior is in decent condition, but some parts may be missing. The key is attached. We will inspect the vehicle in person, but since I also rent the land, I will verify your identity and contact details in advance by checking your driver's license.

  7. White 1969 1600SSS bluebird coupe 71,000 Yen https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/x1171613515 Nissan Bluebird 510 2-door SSS No paperwork Parts used This is a parts car for the Nissan Bluebird 510SSS. The condition is pretty bad as you can see from the pictures. This is a rare vehicle as it is a twin cab two-door coupe. I was unable to find the vehicle registration certificate so I am listing the car for parts, but I know who the owner was at the time it was cancelled so I think it may be possible to reissue the documents. However, it seems that the documents can only be reissued at the time of obtaining the vehicle inspection, so in practice this may be difficult. The tires and wheels will be replaced with tires for rolling so they are not for sale. In addition to this, I am also offering a Bluebird 2-door coupe with orange papers, so I think it would be more realistic to just replace the engine. I think there are some parts that can be used, so please make a bid if you are interested. You can inspect the vehicle in person, but as it is not on my land I will need a copy of your driver's license. We need to remove them by the end of February, so please pick them up as soon as possible. We will not arrange for a delivery company, but we will arrange a pickup date and time and location with the delivery company. If you have any questions, I will answer them to the best of my ability, but please bear with me as I am not a professional.

    Love for 510

    That was fun, thanks!
  14. White 1972 1600DX Bluebird 4dr Auction starting at only 12,000 Yen https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m1167426996 P510 Datsun Boulevard 4MT in great condition Cooler Thank you for viewing. This is a 510 Bluebird. The exterior and interior are as shown in the photos. Some parts of the exterior are from that time, so there is wear on the paint. However, since it has been used in the Kanto region since it was new, I think that the body, undercarriage, and frame are in very good condition with no rust. The interior is also clean with no cracks, cuts, or cracks on the seats or dashboard. P510, 1600cc, 4-speed manual. It is in very good condition. It comes with a rare genuine cooler. It is hard to say because the temperature outside is low, but it gets really cold, so I think it is working. The vehicle inspection expired in 2019, and after that it was owned by a Nissan dealer and was inherited from the dealer. It is currently temporarily deleted. No modifications have been made. It is in full original condition. The meter is 75,300 km. It is probably actual mileage, but it is unknown because it is a 5-digit meter. If you are looking for a good individual, please let me know. In addition to the winning bid price, please make a recycling deposit of 5,400 yen. Please make payment within 5 days of the auction date by simple settlement or bank transfer. Please bid only if you understand used and classic cars. Pickup will be done directly or by land transport. The contractor is not responsible for non-compliance. As this is a classic car, there may be scratches, dents, rust, etc. associated with normal use. The car will be handed over as is, and as it is a classic car, there will be no claims or returns under any circumstances, and the condition of the car will take precedence, so you are welcome to check the car before bidding and ask any questions. In case of cancellation, please pay a cancellation fee of 100,000 yen.
