I enjoyed it. Did everything myself from pulling the engine/tranny down to the fuel/brake lines. I have 3 little ones(5,2,and 6months) so my wife wasn't too happy with me being outside.

The parts off this car will live happy lives on my other projects. Mainly my 2 door which needs rust repair

Damn bro that looks like it was a lot of work :o

My body is telling me the same!

You should see the car I got from you. I think I just need to drop in an engine/tranny/driveline/connect all wiring and GO GO GO!

Thats good to hear man, I wanted it to have a good owner :)

Is it in the background from the first pic?? Looks like the same color??

[skunk]

:sick: poor little car.

good thats the parts are going to others to keep them going, but that looked like a good 4 door.

Yeah that's it. Here's a few pics.

Believe it or not but the car has a clean title. All this car needed was a hood. It even had a napz engine/5 speed installed! The previous owner never finished it .I figured i'd finish it but along came the 2 door so one had to go.

I was almost mad with how nice it looked, but since you're saving other 510s, that makes me happy! :)

We chopped up a 210 at Pumpkins's place during a Bar-B-Que last summer!! :D

Pretty much everything will be reused. The only thing that might not get used is the roof and front strut towers.

Why didn't you cut from the pillars and saved the roof?

[Gary]

gdamn i gotta get me some of that

 

sawzalls look cool

[jefe de jefes]

I'll be reusing 2 small pillar pieces and also 2 small areas of the roof around the windshield and rear window.

I chopped of the front end at the firewall but I think that piece is intact.

from the fire wall/where the A pillar goes down, forward to the middle of the section is what needed. the entire ssection is fine too.

 

if its NOT rusted AND once the vibrations have ceased, if you could get a pic and let me know what ya want for it shipped... this will be my third attempt at a non-rotted section :angry:

[yellowdatsun]

Can't believe you cut up a good car like that. I've seen people want to save cars in WAY worse shape. I have more than a few people here in the Phoenix area that would have been ecstatic to rebuild a body like that into a driver.

 

I'm all for sacrificing one to make others run, but seems like you should have butchered a less pristine body.

Out of the three 4 doors i have ,that was the car with the less pristine body. My 2 door is in way worse shape so the 4 door became an organ donor. It's time I got the ball rolling with the 2 door. I'm itching to drive it already.....

Might have to start a thread in the project section soon.

[izzo]

so chop up the 2 door!!! lol kidding.. sucks though, i would have save the 4 door or sold it, and found something else that needed to be cut up
