Administrators BRAAP Posted July 6, 2007 Administrators Share Posted July 6, 2007 If you were thinking it may be the same as the world famous ’68-’73 Datsun 510, as pictured above, it is not. It only shares the badge and utilizes an L-4 for power plant. http://www.datsuns.com/modelguide/modelguide-hl510.htm Noting special there, it would have to be REAL cheap, like haul it off and its yours kind of cheap. If the engine runs, heater blows hot, wipers work, interior is intact, maybe $150…. Or if you are just really really bored… Alexidways,... Could you please post your pics stacked vertically instead of horizontally? Nice pics by the way. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexideways Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 OK, I posted these pics without noticing that the 510 you were looking at was the later version. I then deleted my post for being so stupid but, I still felt these pics were worth seeing for everyone. Sorry for not being cautious of what I post, I didn't meant to give misleading info... So, the "pics above" that BRAAP mentioned in his post aren't out of his imagination, I just deleted and reposted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlderThanMe Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 hmm... I LOVE the old 510 wagons... Like a skinny Maxima... Saw one a little while ago that was british racing green. Very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexideways Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yup... Can't believe I sold the one I had found but, it was such a good offer, I couldn't refuse. Like 3 times what I paid for it. I still hate myself for doing so though. I'll probably never find another one as clean as that one. I bought the Z shortly after though so, it's not that bad after all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
