aintnobiscuit Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 I've looked at sooo many pictures of 510s over the years and never seen these before... thought I'd share in case nobody else has http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3325588/1970-datsun-510 Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 That "was" a nice car RIP: What's left of it, and 2 other coupes: Quote Link to comment
peanutbuttercups Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 ^ Indy what do you mean rip, did something happen to it??? Or you mean the restoration job. I had the orange one on desktop for a while. Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 . I think the orange one was crashed,, and a yellow one was crashed .... and those 2, combined with James' old green coupe, made that .... not 100% shure though Quote Link to comment
peanutbuttercups Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 ^Oh, thanks Indy. It's been a while since I've been on cardomain. I love bluebirds. Quote Link to comment
510T Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I was flipping out when I saw the green coupe driving on the freeway. This was a few years ago. Very nice car. 680 South just past 580 interchange, East Bay. Quote Link to comment
hobbes_the_cat Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Pretty sure the yellow one was sold in Seattle as a very stripped shell about a year ago with part of the front clip cut off so you're probably right about that one being crashed as well. Quote Link to comment
rusty12ver Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 The 510 keeper has the info, maybe he can chime in on it. Quote Link to comment

buster69 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 owner was a chinese guy named Ted. And the mechanical work was done by Mario at TSR racing. He sold that car. The most over the top show car build i've ever seen on these 510's / bluebird. he even had NAVI in it. Quote Link to comment
the510keeper Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 That's a cool pic of Vic's Dad and I driving Commando down the freeway. Green Coupe is now Noah's. He bought the green one and Ted's Lo's Coupe. Wrecked Ted's old Coupe. Then that one and my old Couple made one. The yellow one was Brian Holloway's Sold to John Roper in Texas. John sold it to Chris ?. Chris learned about the restoration on Noah's Coupe and shipped his to the same shop. Shop owner Jim, decided to fix the Ted Lo's Orange Coupe for Chris, and off the yellow one. The yellow one was a shell sold to Skip n Seattle Now Noah's and Chris Coupes are done and look amazing, (Chris' is now blue) All in a nut shell kinda Quote Link to comment
