fisch Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I love that is it $45,'510' lol. I know many have caught wind of this, but I didn't see it here (Did I miss it?). THis is impressive on many levels. As far as I know it is a record for a 2-door sedan? Unless maybe it was a BRE or Newman car? Someone will know. Has a 510 Coupe even hit this mark yet? This build is stellar. A well engineered machine indeed. Congrats all around. http://bringatrailer.com/listing/1969-datsun-510/ 1 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I like 510s but not that much. 3 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Like I said before....give me the $45k, I'll build it....or them... Quote Link to comment
fisch Posted April 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I like 510s but not that much. Understandable. There are a lot of other options at that price point for sure. I'd like to think that if I were a zillionaire, I'd still rock a 510. But I've never been tempted, so I don't know. Would be nice to have a 911 someday. That was my first favorite car as a kid.

q-tip Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I'm betting that that car could be built for less than 45k 2 Quote Link to comment

bilzbobaggins Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I don't know much about that site. Do you have to be a registered member ? Financial proof needed? I would be curious to find out if the seller gets paid Edit: went to site. Quite interesting Quote Link to comment

fisch Posted April 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I created the thread and I say spam away with super high end builds. Your dads build seems on par for sure. Did your dad put in a rack and pinion? Thought that was a nice touch on the BAT one. My guess is that this is an anomaly at 45K, but time will tell. 1 Quote Link to comment
fisch Posted April 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Grab what you can now Makes me even more happy I picked up that 73 last week. Not so I can flip it but because I don't think I will be able to afford a 2-door soon enough! Even an empty shell basket case missing a tailpanel. I mean this this is already in Hako Skyline range, right? 1 Quote Link to comment

My guess is that this is an anomaly at 45K, but time will tell. yes its has rack and pinion, upgraded subie r180 lsd, willwoods all-around, s15 SR20 built by Rebello here in CA, its the cleanest 510 I've seen.... But I'm a little biased 2 Quote Link to comment
russaroll Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 knowing that it sold for such a high amount, i don't feel as bad when i spend a pile of money putting mine together. 1 Quote Link to comment

Colbino Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Here are a couple. I Don't want to spam the thread I've seen this one in person and it's next to flawless! If Brad can get $45 for his then I'd think this one would fetch a smidgen more. 2 Quote Link to comment
edekalil Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Beautiful car but a lot of money, I'll keep my three 2door sedans and one goon. Quote Link to comment
r0p0doe Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 It's nice to see a 510 cash that kind of sell, I know ppl want to keep them cheap and affordable but for the folks who dump a load of cash into theirs there's hope to possibly cash out 1 Quote Link to comment
scooter stuff Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Has anyone seen the detailed pics of the car that sold for $45? The body has rust bubbles and stress cracks, the dash pad is poorly repaired, the rear seat looks like it has a dirty JC whitney cover, the under carraige is dirty, rusty & poorly detailed. I get that has a lot of cool & unique parts.. But $45k? With that logic, the gray car in this thread would be worth $80-$100k 1 Quote Link to comment
