Proud New owner of a great orange 72' 510

Post by Dave Link »

Proud new owner of Randy York's Orange Datsun 510. Had 510's when young and my father Robert O Link ran sales for Datsun from mid 60's to 1985 when he retired as VP and GM of Nissan USA. He died 6 years ago and I miss him dearly. Used to go to the races with him at Riverside. Mr K was at the track once in a while. I look forward to picking your brains for advice!

Nice! That looked like a great buy on BaT. Congrats! Hard to peg the market on BaT in relation to 510s. Some go for huge money and some seem to languish for whatever reason. Well bought imo

Nice! Saw it on bat and thought it was essentially the "perfect " 510.

Hello Dave, welcome to The Realm. Definitely well-bought. And probably the only CARB-legal 510 in CA. If you could put in your general location in your profile, that'll help us know where you are and where locals might look out for you.
