Danny gets a new car (Evilness lurks in this thread)

Post by DannyBoy » Wed Jan 24, 2007 3:38 pm

Welp, as some of you know I got my Nissan 200sx as a project car but realized I was WAY in over my head with it. Especially since it is damn near impossible to find parts for this car.

So I've been looking around and I found this jem. a 1972 Datsun 510 with a 5.0 in it. That's right, a 302 out of a mustang. It's got so many mods done it would take me forever to list them all out. This thing is faster than all hell and gets no traction in any gear. It's also a 5 speed too :)

I got it for $2200 too :)

Here are the pictures:

You can see the neon in the background too haha

And heres the money shot:

I don't know yet. I still have to fix some things with it.

Roars is an understatement

It's still a sleeper.....


Until I start it. :lol:

But if you were just looking at it from afar, it looks just like a normal datsun 510.
