jeff the front looks too tall your not even tucking tire LOL

 

 

 

DUDE!!!!! I know, a fucked up thing happened when I was shortening the struts. I measured the first one cut it 2 inches then cut the second one 2 inches. Who would have thought to check to make sure both were 68 struts....... Fuck the drivers side was a later one :( So I have 1" less travel on that side and with my hodge podge top hat setup that took more of my travel another loose.... So right there I have about 1" of travel on the drivers side.... So later when I get some parts that are worth it I will lower it more. Need some S13 coilovers :)

 

 

 

 

 

The driver's low beam has me wondering......hinos_68_09202010_2_.jpgwolfman.jpg

 

The core support is kinda smashed in the headlight region. The headlight needs to be "fit" :) Just wanted to drive it so Dillon shoved that air horn in there haha :)

Do you recall the length of the coils? They don't look as long as the ground controls....2010-09-18%2021.52.02.jpgWhat size/offset you running?

 

 

 

Dave the Pull A Part King scored them for me. I'm not sure the length or rate... A little on the soft side though.

Hey Wolfman, I sat in your car today. :P

 

 

I LOVE this car, fits me like a glove too!! ;)

 

Story.......

 

I was on my way home from work in Lynnwood, jumped off the freeway to avoid the awful traffic on I-5 and thought I'd drive by that house I saw all the datsuns at one day. Well, there was a group of guys standing outside next to the teal car. Cool! Stopped and said Hi, met Frank the Datusn guy.

 

Since I have never sat in a 510 I thought I'd ask, and Frank let me sit in the 68. DANG 510's are cool. Felt great to finally sit in one and felt right at home in it!

Felt like I was stting right on the pavement. Too cool.

 

And BTW the headliner looks great.

 

Thanks wolfman! :D

Hey Jeff, it was good to see you again! Juliette didn't recognize you without the beard man! I showed her your picture and that's what she remembers from you! Drive over a 510 next time man, I'd love to see it!

A few updates:

 

I drove her for about a week and couldn't stand the 4k + RPM's on the freeway (due to the 4 speed and 165 45 15's) added with the unwillingness to start in the morning.... Carbs!!! Dave said since I helped him on his car he would assemble my car with some turbo goodies I had been saving (Thanks Rob!!!)if I brought them to him. Carter also gave me a 5 speed and driveline! So Dave has installed almost everything, I just need to get over there and wire it. O and he also put a subi diff in it for me, yeah!

Soooooo, what happened to the 4-speed? I happen to be looking for one. ;)

 

Also, what was the paint code of that car? The 510 I just bought has a code of 562, which is a light blue. Wondering if I should paint it the orig color. I sure do like yours. Just curious what the paint code was of your 68.
