chris67 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Here are some photos of my 510 I picked up awhile back i traded my 64 320 for it. It was on craigslist and I think he posted up some photos on here. I know some of you will like it other will hate and its all good. :rolleyes: Its has been chopped and has a wide body body kit. It also has a 5 speed and L20 motor. It need some work the interior is gutted and some of the glass is plexi which i have to change and it needs a new paint job but I think is a pretty cool little car and it runs and drives great. I also picked up some 18" but I still need some 1.5" adapters/spacers to push them out far enough to fill up the fenders. Anybody got some interior parts they want to sell me? Quote Link to comment
Radim Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Rear looks odd, but it's unique and i like it! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Any 2 or 3 things would have clashed with the 510 shape. Everything together with most of the 510 lines erased, sort of .... works. Maybe the lowered roof? I like these rims better, the others are too bling for the color. Maybe if painted Yelllow? It has everything that I hate on a car, but not hating it. Feels weird saying that. Quote Link to comment
az_rat210 Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Eye See's It and I Likes it. S'cuse the word pun, could not help it. Unique look to it. I only worry about your safety with no bumpers on it. Quote Link to comment
datsunrides Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Front shot kinda looks like a Datsun version of a new Dodge Challenger. Weird how the chop top makes the trunk look longer. Mark Quote Link to comment
jun Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 I love it! The chopped roof is really cool. Meanest looking 510 I've seen. :thumbup: I am definitely feeling the deep dish Centerlines though. The chrome wheels, not so much, but it's your car. Quote Link to comment
Pumpkn210 Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 NICE! Loving the chop, gives it a much sleeker look. Would never think to chop it, that cars done well! Quote Link to comment
fastdadd Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 look very mobster/hit squad Quote Link to comment
chris67 Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 Thanks all I have heard the Challenger thing a couple of time my oldest daughter said the same thing. I know many wont like it becuse it doesnt really look like a 510 anymore. And before anyone blasts me :D I didnt build it and I know it has a history in Oregon (much of it on craigslist). But I will finish it and make it mine I already got started on building all the interior panels. I also dont plan on keeping it the same color since it needs a paint job any way. I was thinking bright yellow maybe burnt orange something that stands out.......... Anybody got any ideas? As for the centerline's I am really not a big fan I never liked the solid wheel look. I got a good deal on the 18" but would really perfer some 16" or 17" wheels and lower it a bit more. Quote Link to comment
Pumpkn210 Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 With the low roof line, I would be careful with much bigger wheels making it look cartoony. But thats just my opinion! I would think you could find some wheels that arent too plain, yet not overdoing it. But who knows, it may be screaming for them biggies when its all Bright orange on the bottom and Shiny yellow on the top? ;) Quote Link to comment

turboHLS30 Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 I think some 15x10 Diamond Racing wheels would look sick. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 I seen this car today, looked like someone started something and never finished it, it was a really good start, the top/chop looked good, but it needs a good paint scheme to balance it out. I think it found a good home, and will get completed, can't wait to see it at canby next year. wayno Quote Link to comment
