Not until you get under there to do a simple task and come out with more oil on you than a bad oil change. My 510 I've never oiled underneath and no rust but then I don't drive on sandy salty winter roads and rarely in the rain except for Summit Point 8>) It's all about modern rust proofing before paint. Oiling is old school I don't care because I don't work on my car DOH!!!Robb wrote:You like rust better ? A lil oily drip for a few weeks wont kill ya ! hahahaha

First stage has begun and is about 60% done. He went over the right side of the hood with a small buffer and it's amazing!!!! He has to do a whole other polish with a finer compound and then hand wax. It feels like glass in the spots he already did.

WOW! That is looking great. I can't wait to see the finished product.

Took some photos early morning before cars and coffee. A good friend of mine spent some time shooting the car as well. I look forward to getting his as he is a much better photographer than I am!

Nicest survivor east of the Mississippi, hands down.

The only non original parts in the bay other than the battery were the upper radiator hose and clamps. Ordered NOS parts from ebay. My hood trim has a kink in it so I ordered that too.

Maybe! A close side to side comparison with Nathan Marshall's 510 would need to be performed first.DonnieDatsun wrote:Nicest survivor east of the Mississippi, hands down.

Hi there!
We have an almost identical 4-dr in this frosty green color in Redwood City, CA. If I see them again, I'll send you a picture. I'm fairly certain the old couple that drives it around are the original owners and it's their daily driver!
Which, of course, is nice to see
Nice find
