skunk Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 didnt know were to post this, didnt want to post in for sell, thought it would get more trafic this way Iv seen this 510 on CL for some time now, its on the portland CL. i dont know portland well at all. but anyway, has anyone seen this car, know anything about it? or know anything about the dealer selling it. Iv called but all i really get is "come up and talk to us to see what we can do" they dont really want to talk on the phone.(most car dealers dont like talking anykind of deals over the phone) http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/ctd/1631350027.html Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 With a phone you can always hang up. A flim flam man can sell ice to an Eskimo and sand to an Arab (no offense intended) and once you are there YOU are at the disadvantage. That car was on here a while back.I think where was some small damage on the driver's side, no interior and hokey wiring. Quote Link to comment
skunk Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 yeah, im dieing to get a 510. but i really dont want to drive all the way to portland to look at a car.Theres no way i would pay the asking price, no bumpers no seats other then the driver, and i dont think it has a dash. i would think 1500ish would be a fair price.All that nice paint does it hide rust.

INDY510 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 And paint hides bondo. Here is the thread about that car: ,,,,.. ... last post sounds like 3 tons of bondo under the headlights: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/19306-someone-jump-on-this/page__p__268447__hl__'portland__fromsearch__1entry268447 Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 how much you looking to pay for a 510? Quote Link to comment
skunk Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 thanks for the link, none of that sounds to bad tho, rust holes, big deal its a datsun. bondo sucks, but its not like im planing on restoring this thing all that just help me make them lower the price. Quote Link to comment
skunk Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 how much you looking to pay for a 510? well it depends, i dont have alot saved up, but im good at coming up with cash. i would rather find a clean roller that just needs an engine. but would love to find a runner. i dont really want to spend over 2000 but if some kind of a deal fell my way i can always find a way to make the money if its worth it.

INDY510 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 It makes me question the body work that was done before paint It must have been in a front end crash....... not the original grill..... 70's car with a 69 grill If you get a 3 ton battery on the passenger side it will be balanced: Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 if you don't mind a project then this might be worth a look, depends how much "putting together" it needs. http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/1632226809.html I don't know if this is still available but I could get you the guys number. He's been asking 1000 for a while but I bet he could be talked down. He's closer to you too, downtown Salem. Comes with fiberglass front fenders, mirrors, and a grant steering wheel. From what I know it hasn't run for around a year, he says it spung bearing ~200 miles after top end rebuild and header. Parked ever since. I was going to get it but got a runner instead, never did go look at it. Quote Link to comment
skunk Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 some one should go look at it for me and just rag on the car to the dealer, and just low ball the shit out of him. then when i go and make an offer ill have a better chance of taking it. Quote Link to comment

The Dat-side Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 the 4 door isn't on CL now, but has been for a while. PM me for his number. that fact that it's a 68 was what drew me to it, and the fiberglass fenders. I'd love to see it in person, it's been for sale for probably 7-9 months, might be a reason. The CL add I have no info on. but might be worth a look. Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Just look at the blue 510's wiring job. the engine bay theres wires everywhere. i was going to look at it, but its not worth over 1200. It was probally bought at a auction after being found in a field or back yard. Quote Link to comment
