Re: FS: '72 510 2dr., Seattle area, $3,600

Did you get this car off a guy named Roger from West Seattle ? It sure looks like it may of been his old car, if it is I have even more history on it all the way back to 1981 or so.

Re: FS: Black Racing Rims x4

I see he found the realm...I seen these on Hachiroku.net and thought they would work much better for a 510 owner. And yes these will work on a 510. Here is a pic of my old 510 with 15x6 Watts with +20 offset. I had room for days. I also had 15x6.5 +18 front and 15x7 +27 rear on my car. Black racing ...

Re: Tim's 69

Proof Tim...we need pics. haha. You have spent alot time thinking about this build. Curious, since your going to track the car, are you planning on running 13 inch wheels ? I know at least 14 inch rims would make for a much more friendly car to steer on the track. It made a huge difference on my car...

Re: Opinions on this car...

My opinion for what its worth....you will never ever come close to duplicating that car for anywhere near that amount if trying to build it yourself. Let alone the time it takes just to find NOS parts these days. It is also nicer than all the other cars shown above that sold for more. It may not hav...

Re: conejo valley convertible

My old friends Matt and Dex did that to a four door back in 85 or so. It was awsome for the beach. He had to weld the doors up cuase the car felt like it wanted to bend in half while driving down the road... Wait a minute....Hainz has a convertable Box flared 510 also. His was done by the PO from Se...

Re: wacked retro 510's pics...

I'd roll it....It even has the bubles in the tint. I had that same Kamei air dam on my 1st 510 in 1983. I wish my 510 back then was that nice. It looks like a time capsule....I bet there is some diamond tuck in there also. :wink: I would date that paint scheme in the late 70's...around the time when...

Re: Afraid of heights? WATCH THIS!!

I'll have to pass on that job, those guys are nuts...for some reason I can't stand being on the edge of buildings that are real high. I used to crew helicopters in the Army and stand and sit with my feet dangling off the ramp in the back at any altitude and did not bother me....but put me on a real ...

Re: Gold Coast California Fun Run

Traffic???? In LA???? I am not that familiar with some of those roads up in Ventura, but the weekends in the canyons down here mean cyclists, sport bikes and super car cruises. I generally go for my spirited canyon drives on weekdays when none of those are really a factor, all the more reason for an...

Re: Watanabes 16"

Those are also called SSR RS8's made under license for Watanabe. I had a set of them also.....they are very light for their size. The centers felt like they were possibly made of magnesium when I had them apart for restoration. That is a good price for them form what I can tell in the pics. It took ...

Re: pln scale 510...sept 10

Him and Steve McQueen are two coolest actors to ever live in my opinion.

I notice they are no longer taking ordrers for the cars....I'll take one if someone already ordered several they want to sell when they are released.
