thegreg Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Just picked this beauty up... 1972 510 2dr. Guy bought as a project he couldn't handle Has what looks like universal coilovers on the front, and 3 mesh wheels and one 280zx maybe wheel, with a nice bite out of it! Tons of extra parts, glove boxes, instrument clusters, deck lid, hood,door handles, etc. Roof was dented in, only took about 3 seconds to pop that out. Big draw back is it needs new floor pans...anyone know of a supplier for those? Engine is taken apart, and probably will just go up for sale. Sellers original photos.. On its way home Just a mock up at home Start of the clean up Buffed up the cluster lens (1 on 3 extras) Random Honda Accel injectors in the car?! My custom plate from years past Quote Link to comment

Dirttrack510 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Nice save, Welcome to Ratsun. :D From what I can see I bet you can fix those floor pans. I've seen much worse pans fixed. Quote Link to comment
jinx3 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Congrats on the car - that's pretty much how I got mine - partially assembled with parts in the trunk and interior. What are your plans for the car? What are you going to do for engine? Here are the two sources I found for floors. The first I found on another thread, and I was looking at buying from him, but then ended up getting a set from another ratsun member.

thegreg Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 What are your plans for the car? What are you going to do for engine? Mark - I want to get it further stripped and then primed. Then figure out what i'll do for suspension & wheels. Engine wise...either a boosted F20 (Honda S2000), or newer nissan motor boosted. Thanks for the link. Quote Link to comment
Booger Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Congrats on your new 510. I always like when someone starts a new project. I'll be watching this one Quote Link to comment
