Hey everyone, How are all the dato's out there travelin? That may be a start to a good thread! I'd be busting a nut, the left one l think working on my ol Dat. lm glad to say most of the hard work has been done and I've thought about posting a build thread and still might one day. Anyway its a stock car with a few minor upgrades. The running gear is a worked L20 engine with single side draft carb, stumpy 5 speed gear box and standard diff. So stock as in comparison to some of the builds I've seen on here. I have been posting under (newbie) in general discussion, and not sure when i'll become an old-bie as I have only owned my little car for around 22 years. The car was beige up untill a few weeks ago. The whole process and end result has turned out the way I always wanted a P510 to look. I guess over a lot of year's, cars come and go, but how many evolve? Anyway, its been a worth while process after driving the car for the first time in around ten years. I spent most of my time interstate working, and the car just sat like a lawn orniment. I attempted to sell the car seven years ago for $3000 but the best offer i got was 2,700. NO DEAL. I Knew how much money i'd put into the mighty Datsun 1600 and i also know that you never get it back. That was'nt the issue, the car had become part of the family and l always loved driving it. As a driver (truckie) it would of been very hard parting with it even for twice the dollars. Now im so glad that i did'nt cause its old school as in my opinion, abit like me. My name's James but most people call me Jimi. Any feedback or questions would be welcomed as a sh*t load of people have looked at it in the general discussion post but not to many comments. Would love to know what you sr and fj mad bastards think.
