jackedaw11 Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 I picked up this banged-up 510 on a whim, but I don't really know what to do with it. Its got damage on almost every panel, its been rear ended and front ended and it has some serious rust in the drivers side floor. It's never going to be a nice showcar, but I think its still too good to part out. I'm thinking lower it, hammer out some of the dents and fix the rust, and spray it flat black? Maybe do a motor swap? It would be fun to have a little rat rod to bomb around in. Anyways, here's some pics: Caved in passenger door shattered rear quarter and crunched tail light panel Its a mess under the hood, but I drove it home! Quote Link to comment

banzai510(hainz) Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 I tried to get that guy to spend money on a electronic ignition conversion about 5years ago. This guy is cheap/weird ect.. Typical Datsun owner!Ecentric. But has a nice place house w/land. I drive home on that road everyday but rarely seen the car on the road. Hes selling his house. Maybe downsizing or his sick. I was going to give my extra set of windows for him but said Fuck it. He was just to cheap of a guy to make upgrades on this car. I think it needs turnsignal housing. I think it just had soem reflectors or something.Said Hell Im nt helping him out. Ben, If you need a window or maybe Jeff has one he can give you for the back. just fix the major rust spots otherwise rattle can the fucker. slam it down use as a driver. Quote Link to comment
