WTB: 510 Wagon

WagonMaster · Post by **WagonMaster** » 01 Jul 2003 15:58

I really want a 510 wagon, so keep your ears open, and tell me what you have, i'm gonna buy either a 510 wagon or a malibu wagon, whichever i find first, i would prefer the 510, but they're not as common, i'm looking for very minimal rust and an engine that runs without problems, i know it's a lot to ask, but still shout me what you have, and a price you want for it, it'll be dice, thanks a lot, Geoff

i saw you... rather heard you driving past me on 56th today, it sounds amazing now, did you get a new tailgate, or has it always been the gray one?

what'd it cost you to get that engine in...
if you don't mind me asking, i might buy a 510 with only a body and put in a new engine, if it's within reason

you can get an engine install kit deal from http://www.vg30.com (might be hard to get hold of...) which goes for $1000 US. That includes engine mounting brackets, oilpan, headers and trans x member. You can get an engine pretty cheap (I got a complete wrecked 300zx for $400).

My dad and I did everything else and it took quite awhile...So if you're paying someone to do it it may cost a fair bit to get it all right.

And if you're putting in the V6 you need to get stiffer springs and bigger brakes....the list goes on! Might be an idea to just say $3000 bucks[if you do the work yourself it would be cheaper]. If you're under then sweet! If not...well...

Good luck

Don't forget all the other stuff, There's quite a bit of stuff you forget about until you're 3/4 way thru and are like... "Hrrmm... Well that RAD isn't going to work..." and "AAHH!! what am I going to use for a FAN", "EEEKK!! What do I do for a fuel pump?!"

It starts really adding up. I'm sure Spankz0r would agree.
