Datsunway Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Sooo.. Im a noob here. I was at a local yard pulling parts for my E30 and seen this 1979 Datsun 510 sitting there. It's been there awhile and doesn't get much interest. I would hate to see it get scrapped with nothing pulled.. Let me know what you can use and I can get better pics. Thanks Link to comment
hobbes_the_cat Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 It's nice of you to offer to hook us up with parts but this would probably fit better in the "wrecking yard report" in the general section. Another thing to note is that it's not a 1971. Looks like late 70's to me. BTW I would love to see your 510 project. You should start a build thread. :thumbup: Link to comment
CorAce Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I think this is an early 80's model. the engine and trans is about the only useable part on it. Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Look inside door jamb on that plate to find the year ,, does it have round or rectangular head lights,,, If it`s a 79 and has matchbox distributor that would be worth your time to scoop up,, someone is always looking for one of those. As for me; .. does it have a stock tach ?? Link to comment

86 720 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 What does the dash look like? I'd be interested in the tail lights and the fuel door and associated trim. Are the wiper arms and the wipers still there? Could you get a pic. of that to me? Link to comment
Datsunway Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I don't believe the dash is any good..I will get pics of what you asked about tomorrow..Thanks Link to comment
green180 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Im interested in the matchbox distributor, pedestal, and harness from distributor to coil Link to comment

510antihero Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Hey Datsunway I would like to buy the entire clutch/brake pedal assembly, the glove box lock, and the clutch master cylinder (If thats still good). And on the transmission, is it the 5 speed dog leg? If so I would probably want to buy that to if its in good shape and won't cost a fortune to ship. I do have a paypal account and I will pay the shipping cost. I'll pm you my cell number so you can call me if needed. Thanks, Justin Btw here's a pic of what the pedal assembly looks like.

I do have a Thanks, Justin Btw Aintihero if you have an auto the dogleg trans will probably be shorter and you will need a longer driveshaft... Measure your trans from engine to end of output,,it will most likely be 31" inches-ish long and a dog leg will only be around 26" 27" ,,,, A Z , ZX or 620 pickup 5speed might be what you need The trans in the 78 we got for parts had a 4speed in it (which is same lenght as dogleg ) and the driveline was longer..we used the shorter auto one,,,,like you might have already.. maybe,,,, but you need to measure The clutch slave and the rubber hose if it`s still good ,,and cheap,, might be worth getting ,,one less thing ,, you know It`s also to bad sending the prebent clutch line probably isnt feasible because that made it a ton easier for us..

Datsunway Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Thanks for all the help banana... I wish the Tach was there for you but it's not.. I will check on the rest o the items today.. thanks Link to comment
KiroTech Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I need the engine crossmember from it send me a pm urgent Link to comment

Hey thanks for the info. I'll have to measure my drive shaft to see which tranny I'll need. I hope I can use the normal 5 speed vs the dogleg due to it's easier to find. But hey what are you talking about on the prebent clutch line? Should I try and get that part to? Why would you say it isn't feasible to get? Also I just thought do you know if I would need the trans crossmember from that car? Link to comment

Why would you say it isn't feasible to get? Also I just thought do you know if I would need the trans crossmember from that car? The prebent clutch line is just the line that comes stock, that you would take out of a manual. (Line that goes from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder). But having it pre-bent makes it look stock to the car, its cleaner looking and goes in the right spots. But shipping it would take the wierdest shipping box ever. AND my dad (Bananahammuck) and i can't freaking remember what crossmember we used...so you should just get it to play it on the safe side. Sorry if i couldn't help you more, man. Link to comment
Datsunway Posted February 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thanks all for the interest..I am getting the parts requested pulled. We just got dumped on with more snow so please understand any delays.. thanks Link to comment

HOGIE Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm interested in the intake, fuel return lines and fuel pump. Is the distributor gone? How does the carb look? Link to comment
Boom death Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 If it still has the datsun510 fender badges I would be interested also if it has the rear driver side vent cover by passenger door ... And in the center console the cover for the storage compartment right behind the parking brake In between the seats ... I would buy those of u if u can get them thanks In Advance Link to comment

I had the short 4 speed / long DS in it but automatics are longer and the same length as the 71B 5 speed. Litterally dropped in with the auto DS. Bananana do you have the exact lengths between U joints for these drive shafts???? Please? Link to comment

Boom death Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Are you guys intentionally asking for parts that are clearly already missing in the photos? No one asked for ur opinion dib shit... FYI u can clearly see the 510 badge on passenger side fender and other stuff I asked for are not pictured and if datsunway doesn't mind answering questions why should u so MIND UR FUCKING BUISSNESS !!!

datsunaholic Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 OK, the passenger one is there... or what's left of it, but it's crumbled to pieces. I can see in the pics the driver's one is gone. The driver's side pillar vent cover is gone... the entire storage box on the console is gone. But you're right, they could all be thrown in the back seat too. I was trying to be sarcastically humorous. I found it amusing that 2 people would ask about parts that were already gone. But, you had to take it personal. That's fine. Link to comment
