the510keeper Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 So many over priced 2 doors. Story starts Jean and I picked this 2 door up after Canby in Beaverton. Jean took on the project, then fell in love with a different Datsunville project. So a trade was done. I got the car back with a few new goodies and new look. Lowered it put it up for sale with everything to make run. No takers. Now we are building a Kmart Special Simple and cheap. People love a running car. After a year on MIA Tim and Sam showed up at the shop and a deal to make run was struck. L18/4 speed, new clutch ( pressure plate, clutch, throw out bearing, and pilot bushing). new masters (break and clutch, and clutch slave cylinder) Weber down draft black box dizzy, 4 wheels and breaks we r good. then find a home. Lowered it first Found some funky rust And then In the new shop Parts 4 Quote Link to comment

Shanep71 Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 Nice work as usual James Quote Link to comment
Rex Otto Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 James looks like another deal to be made. I love the 71 two door "runner" you sold me! . Best thing I have done for some time. the only problem is that "runner" has sparked a 510 fever that we will have to fix. Work to begin after the shop is 100%, See you soon, another Happy, Happy customer. 2 Quote Link to comment

banzai510(hainz) Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 the SUPER accell coil might need a .85 ballast. I dont think it runs on the staright 12/14 volts like a EI coil. as they come with a ballast resisitor in the box. and used with the stock ballast in a point coil Feel if HOT Quote Link to comment
the510keeper Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 We tossed that coil seemed to not be working. Car is gone and already looks better, Metal guy and I managed a trade. He got the Kmart Special with interior parts, Evo recaros, S13 complete new camber plates and coilovers. I think this little die will only get better Quote Link to comment
