The 510 Realm

I found updating the alternator does wonders for such electrical accessories, like the windshield wiper motor. Oh, and also cleaning out the 50+ year old grease and re-greasing it up.

My dad gave me a different perspective on the topic of fly wheels. For context, he's an old drag racer (mid-70's). He advised me to look at the powerband to determine whether to go with lightweight or stock; noting that fly wheels play a part in momentum of the engine. A heavier fly wheel holds the ...

Looking great! I've gone back and forth with the Dapper lights, due to the modern look they provide. What's not debatable though is how the modern lights outshine the vintage lights. (See what I did there?) I updated all bulbs and lighting sources to LED at this point, except for my fog lights and ...

Great work!

Consider utilizing a remote oil filter kit. Makes changing oil so, so, so much easier on L engines. And, you can actually fill up the oil filter all the way so there is no starvation on that first startup after the change. (Stock filters hold like an entire quart!!)

I think your 510 is the only one that can actually pull off an oil cooler mounted outside the grill.

How much is the fuel cell going to run ya?

Good looking throttle body. Visited the webpage and my antivirus blocked it, saying "this is a known dangerous webpage..." Oh well. Remind me, is this for an SR or a KA?

"The best part of all - I still have room for speakers and a sub! " Noooooooooooooo!

I think you are making a mistake with insisting upon an in-person showing. But, the choice is yours. It may not sell as quickly as you might like and your car looks like it could get some positive attention on BringATrailer. Here's the Datsun 510 page, in case you might want to see how it compares w...

I would definitely give BringATrailer a try. There has been only a handful of 510s in 2022 for sale there. Put the reserve where you want it and be an ACTIVE participant in the discussion board.

This may be a long shot, but I thought I would give it a try. Wanting to buy 1, yeah only 1, radio knob for the factory AM radio. Somehow, the Datsun gods decided to take back one of my radio knobs while I was disassembling the dash a few months ago. After looking everywhere for it, I can't find it....

Because that's the way we've always done it!

About $4/gal here in CO.
Really, not bad still. Just high enough to encourage folks to combine trips and be mindful of their consumption (aka pollution).

Can you convert this discussion to Imperial measures? My brain doesn't compute Metric. lol
