datsunfreak Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 If you get the Velocity Channel, there's a 510 on today's episode of "Restoration Garage". Episode title is "Instant Replay". Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I was not really impressed with the job they did on it, ive seen guys on here do better work lol. Still was very cool seeing a 510 get partially cased on the show. Quote Link to comment
shacks510 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Some body work and a paint job. Nothing special really. It did have dual Hitachi's. Quote Link to comment

qwik510 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Not too much air time on the 510. Just a few clips here and there. Not much of what they actually did to it either. They did show it being driven a bit.They also did a bit of the history with shots of Laguna Seca and Morton tearing it up to beat the Alfa's. And the owner said he paid $5K for it and his budget was $20K. I hope they didn't charge him $20K for just a paint job. Glad to see a 510 on a car show at all. This and Leno. Wow. Maybe the 510 will go up in value another $5K Quote Link to comment
Nuclear Water Boy Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Agreeded Dave because it still had shitty interior. From what I saw the headliner still looked old not to mention the hood was missing it's stainless trim that blends with the headlight surrounds. I'd a painted it for him for 1k and did small bits of body work,,,I said small bits not fixing that 1/4 panel mash. Quote Link to comment
shacks510 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I saw the Velocity version. NatGeo version has a different view on it. A little more air time. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Glad to see a 510 on a car show at all. Exactly why I posted this. ;) Only the second time I've seen one of the car resto shows feature a Datsun... Here's the other one: http://www.velocity.com/tv-shows/garage-squad/videos/a-parked-datsun-402.htm Quote Link to comment
