str8maxn Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Hello all, I am been here for some time and this is my first post... I recently picked up a 69 2 door for my son. It will be his gradution present when he graduates high school. It needs work but its a good base. I have never really restored or customized any car before so I am really looking forward to messing with it. Thank you JM http://www.cardomain.com/ride/4087303/1969-datsun-510/ 1 Quote Link to comment

banzai510(hainz) Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 looks good to me and say Rotary and racing beat on sticker which means most like a Wankel motor in there. Don't know if we can help. most likely car will be wiped out by the time his 21. might be some good australian web site as they have tons of rotarys down there. FAST!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment

str8maxn Posted October 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Thank you all, I was told the car has a 200HP Mazda b13 rotary engine and 5 speed. The car was raced and owned by five friends over the last 10-15 years. The last owner is saving up to get married and I ended up with it. More pictures to come. Quote Link to comment
heywier427 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Cant see the pics on car domain :( There's a few of us rotary owners here, but Rx7club and nopistons are very good informational sites. First thing to find out is when the last rebuild on the engine was done, and what mods. 200whp on a 13b is a large streetport or half Bridgeport. Its loud and fun! He should really know how to drive well before you completely hand this over. I can hit 80 in 2nd gear at 8k, and I only have a 12a, and am not a gutted race car! Just be careful and have fun! :) Quote Link to comment
str8maxn Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 Thanks for the info Heywier247, it will be awhile before he takes it over. I stress that the first time he f's up ... Its gone. Two years ago, I have my oldest a 1976 280z with a V8 in it for his gradutation; so far he's been really good about not doing dumb shit. JM Quote Link to comment
