1970 Datsun 510 Wagon
Located in Edmonds, WA
Asking $5000 OBO
I've owned this car for about 10 years, and for the most part, it has been my daily driver. It's a great car. It's a blast to drive. But I think it's time for me to let it go :(
The current engine is the third engine that's been in the car since I've owned it. (original smokey l16, semi-built l18, and now the KA)
Pics coming tomorrow after I give it a quick wash :D
Details:
ENGINE
-Most swap and engine work (95%) was done by Ray @ Garage Autohero in Woodinville.
-Pretty low mile Single Cam KA24 (I think <60k when I picked it up about 2 years ago), Oil changed regularly w/ Mobile1 or K&N Filters
-Custom Exhaust - Modified OBX Headers to 2.5" stainless all the way back through a nice Magnaflow muffler. Sounds great, lots of power. Fab'd by Ray @ Garage
Autohero
-Custom intake
-Beautiful super-clean wiring
-Shortened and balanced Driveline from DriveLinesNW.
-Recently replaced U-joints on the driveline
-Tranny shifts smoothly (grinds lightly into 3rd on a down-shift)
-Super-secret-fuel-pump-kill-switch!
STEERING & SUSPENSION
-Ground Control Coils on 280zx struts (if I recal...) w/ Tokico Illumina adjsutable inserts
-TechnoToyTuning Bump-steer spacers (RCAs)
-TechnoToyTuning Adjustable Lower Control Arms (LCAs)
-TechnoToyTuning Camber Plates
-Flipped '68 crossmember (sits a little lower than later ones)
-Datsport Steering Box Brace
-Recent Camber/Caster/Toe alignment at Omni Brake and Alignment in Kirkland (Last Summer)
-Fresh (Last Summer) Yokohama S-Drive's on all corners (205/55/15) on 1-year Mitsubishi Starion Wheels (have 2 spare rims as well)
-Custom lowering blocks in the back. Pretty much as low as it can go w/o removing the bump-stops.
INTERIOR
-Matching Red-Needle guages (Tach and Speedo). Speedo has Trip meter (pretty rare)
-Functioning Map Light and switch (Super Rare)
-Full Carpet Kit front to back.
-Early 90's Prelude Si seats (great bolsters, lumbar support yeah!)
-Door cards are in pretty good condition (driver's side is the worst out of the bunch)
-Clean Headliner
-Almost perfect Dashpad (no cracks at all)
-Floors are great.
-Grant Steering wheel
EXTERIOR
-SSS Grille
-Wagon Wing!
-Stock wagon Locking Gas Cap (pretty rare). Was NOS when I put it on about 8 years ago.
-H4 Headlights
-Body is pretty straight. No Rust. Has a few dents and dings here and there.
-Glass is good
-Paint isn't amazing. It's a little ratty.
-Bumpers are pretty straigth as well
THE BAD
-Speedo Cable snapped a while ago, Have another one coming in the mail. Should be here this weekend...
-Tach needs to be hooked up..
-Gas tank was removed atleast once during it's life, and wasn't put back in correctly, so on an empty tank, 8GAL MAX, otherwise it'll spill out a little if you corner
hard left... o.O;
-Could use some new seals. They're not horrible.. They keep the weather out, and the windows don't rattle, but they're 40 years old.
EXTRA GOODIES!
-Extra Set of Tail light housings and lenses (with rubber)
-Extra '69 grille
-Extra '70 (standard) grille
-Sliver and Round marker lights (Car is an early '70, so styled like a 69 originally, but was converted to '70+ before I got it. I've got most of the goodies to
convert it back)
-Extra Ignition and Lock cylinders (I think everything has a key and is functional)
Don't know if I've left anything out... But I think I got most of it...
Super-reliable, parts easy to come by, a blast to drive... New Seals, a little body work and paint, and it'd be amazing. Great little car.. I'm gonna miss it. If it doesn't sell, it must be an omen that I am to keep it forever haha
