x280zracer

Just Googled my buddie's name "Jerry Cox and Datsun 510". Wow! I can't find any pictures of my 280z, but this brought back memories. I was the one who actually painted this car. Jerry wanted it painted like the BRE 510's and the first time we painted it Porsche Guards Red on top and my 280 was identical, except it wias Camaro IROC Z28 blue on top. After a repair we did on the 510, we painted his the same as mine. Jerry was a STALLION/ PITBULL. He lived and breathed 510's and forgot more than most of us will ever know. I was lucky to know him. That picture was from Hallett and was 1987 or 1988. He won Driver of the Year in SCCA MidAm once in that car. That was his first 510 and the grandaddy of any street 510's he built later. He actually suffered a mild heart attack racing that car and later lived a very long time with a transplanted heart Godspeed Jerry
