Bleach Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Did they do free work on that car for a "friend" ? Quote Link to comment
datto510 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 It has been marked up $1000 too! Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) Can frank and jeff expect a $500 check in the mail? Hainz, you right. No one heeds free advice because it cost them nothing so it's worth nothing. Same with free parts and labor, no one cares about them later because they have no investment in it. Frank and Jeff worked on this car? Probably for the love of doing it. (bless them) Still, to others... gotta sting a bit. Maybe economic down turn forces sale??? Shit happens and I doubt anyone would want to part with it purely for, (ugh) money! Edited March 19, 2009 by datzenmike Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I'd pay $2500 for that car Quote Link to comment

Zaquel510 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 yea i was thinking about offering him a decent amount for it also but i was kinda leary as i didnt know if it was a known 510 or not . now that i know you guys know about it so it must be a decent swapped car i might have to think harder on getting it .well if you get it for 2500 that would be a deal good luck Quote Link to comment

DISLEXICDIME Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 i wanted that car so bad Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Dude that car is nice!!! We went through everything to get it back on the road!! Well it could use some fancy suspension bits but other than that it's a decent car. I remember laying under it fixing the ebrake because his parents would let him buy it unless it had a working ebrake...... I did drive it once though :D Quote Link to comment

DISLEXICDIME Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 see the problem is if you dont putt in the time to fix your 510 you dont get that feeling of accomplishment when you drive it. then you start looking at it as just another noise old car with out all the bells and whistles.

Icehouse Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I just figure most kinds don't take the cars they buy to the next level. Doing some suspension work makes 510's a blast to drive, I'm sure it still has all the wore our ball joints, no swap bar and old school springs (ST if I remember correctly) If the kid upgraded a few parts here and there he would see the real potential of his car. Instead it still probably drives like an old truck. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Hey now...I like old trucks :fu: How's the 4x? Did you order that shaft yet? Quote Link to comment
sean1978 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I don't know too much about the situation but my take is that if you guys are looking for the "greater good" the car would be better off out of the hands of a high-school kid. A newer and more disposable tuner car would probably suit his or her needs and safety better anyhow. I was a poor kid from a poor family and it still makes me cringe when high school kids wreck cool modified cars that they didn't actually build or work to pay for. If you have invested a lot of time and effort and money that you had to work for into something you generally enjoy it more than you would something that came easy to you. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 When I got my SAS finished and was fairly sure the brakes worked I fired it up and cruised the neighborhood. I was grinnin' so bad I could hardly see out the window. Seemed like everyone was lookin' and pointing at me. :lol: Quote Link to comment
