Rustina 510 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Wow bob, I just read the entire build on here, it has changed my build plan, at first I wanted a Steve pepka style super built custom dime " I still want that eventually" but now I want to get my car on the road first and foremost, and once it's actually running I will keep it totally ratsun bob style while I build up the parts I need to make my pepka flared 510. I wish I had your resources but rat rods look better when made cheap. All I really need now is a tranny and floor pans and I'll start putting it together! You can see my build. Google search " rustina 1969 Datsun 510 coup" Thx for the inspiration Quote Link to comment
Abe Froman Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 That stock '73 green color on your son's car is so cool. A set of doors and a dash should be easy to come up with to make that car whole again. There's a lot going on in your garage, this should be fun to watch. Quote Link to comment

Bob3 Posted December 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 . I had some stencils made for my ratsun/BRE stripes. I stuck them, painted them, then removed them. What do you think? Quote Link to comment

Jester Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Ok, so it's Christmas morning, everything is opened. Since Christmas is bigger than Thanksgiving, I figured I would see what Bob and his crew are getting done today on the 510 rat. Or is it Tommys day for upgrades..................

I took apart the spare rear suspension that I'm going to clean up and prep for install on the '68 Rat. Tommy got some work done too . . . ;) 1 Quote Link to comment
Aaron Datsun Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 Bob, I know you hear this a lot here, but you are awesome. I love your updates, but in all honesty, I wish you would do some stuff on the Opposition goon. That being said I love all your updates, so please keep them coming. Quote Link to comment

I have a rough plan bouncing around in my head now for The Opposition. I think my writer's block is going away! We need to finish up Tommy's dime and a few more things on my 68 Rat then I'll get on the goon! :D Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted December 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 . My L20 & 5 speed has been yanked from the 620. The motor is scheduled to be rebuilt the first week of Jan. Should be sweet! 1 Quote Link to comment

Madness Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Seriously!! I dunno how you guys do any of this work without getting the floor dirty. Really! Your shop is always spotless. So what's going to happen to the 620? Quote Link to comment
xvi00 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Great build on the 68 2door ratsun, what sort of numbers do you think the project has cost you so far. Quote Link to comment
