510 rocker panels

kevwal · Post by **kevwal** » 26 May 2007 04:22

Hi everyone, I'm a newbee here but I have been in love with the 510 from the time i was a kid. My brothers all had some growing up and I was sure to get one too. I picked one up a few years ago and had it sitting for a while. Now i'm ready to get busy. It has a bit of rust so it's going to be a task. I was wondering If anyone knew if there is someone that makes replacement rocker panel for our cars or if anyone has some sitting that thay cut off a parts car. Right now that's kind off holding me back. I was replacing the floors and realized that the entire front section of the rocker panels are shot.

eBay, I got a set... took me a while to get them but they came and they are shaped right.. they are the length of the back of the door to the front fender I believe. and they were even somewhat cheep.

they don't have rockers? I was pretty sure I saw a piece of a rocker on their list of body parts...

I received this e-mail from Allen Hall at nissanbodypanels.com. He's willing to make those hard to find parts.

Greetings to the Datsun 510 fans; we are interested in providing floor panels, inner and outer sill assembly, lower front fender, and door repair panels for the rusty 510s. Please visit our web site; http://www.nissanbodypanels.com/ Presently we offer the rear 1/4 panel section in one piece door to tail light. Also front/lower & rear/lower sections of the 1/4. We can provide the other panels if someone is kind enough to mail us rusty (but recognizable ! ) samples that we can keep as references. Thank you, Allen Hall
