Dad's 1969 Datsun 510 build

[69datsun510]

Finally have the correct size tires, 4 wheel alignment,  exhaust system done, and engine running.  Off to the A/C shop to get the A/C lines and A/C system working. Still lots to do, windows, trim, bumpers, grill, spook spoiler, and interior stuff.

That is or those art some very fine builds, I may have to write you for some advise on things when I get to my 2 door that's all apart. Simply beautiful.

Wow! Looks great!! If I can get mine to look 1/10th as good as yours I will be over the moon. It will be a couple of months before I get back to working on my 510 wagon and VG33 project since I am doing construction on the other half of the garage now. I am looking for new wheels in 14" or 15" since I decided to use the 280ZX struts and brakes and the 13" wheels I had will not fit.

 

What size wheels and tires did you use? Are you open to having more people PM you? My project page is '72 510 Goon - Provo. Stock rear springs with 2" lowering blocks and front techno toys tuning coilover kit. Probably will not be quite as low as yours but looking for the same front rake.

 

Fabulous job and I look forward to seeing more.

I finally got my car on the road!  Now I’ve decided to sell, something I thought I’d never do. However, it’s happening, currently on auction at Bring A Trailer
