datsunfreak Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Mouth looks much better now. :thumbup: Did you notice the hood scoop is on the wrong side, though? ^_^ Not the best pic, but the body and interior of the 510 Street Fighter are pretty much done- next it's a matter of finding the right wheels and tires and messing around with the ride height. 2 Quote Link to comment
Chuck Most Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Mouth looks much better now. :thumbup: Did you notice the hood scoop is on the wrong side, though? ^_^ Or is it...? On mine, I just put the scoop on the driver's side, because that's the side the carbs are on. :D 4 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Or is it...? My bad. :rofl: The one on the header at the top of the page is a mirror image of the original. That's what I was looking at. ^_^ On mine, I just put the scoop on the driver's side, because that's the side the carbs are on. :D Which I'm sure is why the original version did also. :thumbup: 1 Quote Link to comment

That's what I was looking at. ^_^ Which I'm sure is why the original version did also. :thumbup: That it is- if you look closely you'll see the "driver' side" view on the header shows the fuel filler flap, which is on the passenger side of the real car. Didn't notice that myself at first. :) Quote Link to comment
Chuck Most Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Here's one I did years back. First, I drew a picture of a crazy-assed Model T rat rod... Then I wanted to see how close I could get a model... 3 Quote Link to comment

Chuck Most Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Did you put the engine in yet? my hood doesn't fit properly now Everything is together on mine, less the suspension and rolling stock. I didn't have any problems with the hood fitting, but I did not use the kit-supplied hinge. 1 Quote Link to comment
rsxse240 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Ok, one of you guys with extra money laying around need to buy this. It's a 1980 Datsun A10 Auster/510/stanza model kit. I REALLY want to get it, but just can't. It looks to be a fairly simple early 80s Fujimi kit curb side Here's an EBAY link for it Quote Link to comment
Chuck Most Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 $158 bucks, plus 21 for shipping? Fuck. That. Noise. :angel: 3 Quote Link to comment
rsxse240 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I know! I really wish I could afford it, I'd make resin copies and sell them for half the price. 1 Quote Link to comment

Chuck Most Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I also used one on my wedding cake a few weeks ago, the cake girl set it up wrong tho, the idea was the bride pulling me away from the hakosuka Just saw this today- the guy built a model of his real truck, and they displayed it by the wedding cake, with the bride dragging him away. :D 3 Quote Link to comment
