paradoxx Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 So, as some of you knew, I throwing away my latest 510 because the metal is really messed up. Yesterday I went to pick up another 510 that Ive found sitting under the sun and rain......he was overhauled but then some vandals shot the car and broke all the windows. The owner got dissapointed and leave it there. He gave it to me for $250. it has a L18 with w53 head...i dont know it it is a peanut, single downdraft carb, it has the interior A/C fan unit.....and a partialy destroyed personal steering wheel. The plans are just the same ones that I had for the other one, to race it eventually. I will throw away, seats and everything, I cant keep them because I already have all the stuff of the last one. Maybe next week it goes to the shop to get some metal implants on the lower part of the rear window. Some pics for you. There it is! Quote Link to comment
paradoxx Posted August 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I will be stripping it off today and washing it.......I found a place for sandblast here, so this way i can take a look for rust. And then take it to the shop. Quote Link to comment

paradoxx Posted August 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 BTW, the seats are going, I already have a spare set and I dont have space where to put them. Quote Link to comment
paradoxx Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I've found my thread! haha this is the car that went to the shop for metal work, because as its going to be an autoXer, i felt that glass wouldn't be safe enough for the track. Also, I reconditioned the heater box so I can install it on my DD. Pics? I know you like pics! They came out in disorder but you'll find out the proper order. :D Quote Link to comment

pl521sss Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Hey man My lady is there now in Guatemala for a emergency family matter to take care of. That's why I couldn't make it. Short trip and not worth it. So you're getting that 510 ready for me to sell in about a few months, right? I'll need one to go around when I get there. Her father will keep it for me there. I think that heater box is from a 68 car Have the rear glass and rear door glass Hell, I have most of the parts needed to put it together. If you're interested Not sure the parts availability there so.... Edited October 31, 2009 by pl521sss err Quote Link to comment
pl521sss Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 That front marker is dual bulb It's the clearamber or Euro style front marker. Is that common there? Quote Link to comment
