There was a mechanic who used to do some work for Parts Plus in Berkeley before who had a lot of Datsun hybrids. Fairlady roadster, 510s etc... He had a 510 with a v6 300zx turbo motor (don't know how it fit) but it flipped on the freeway.
After the accident, he started a Mini project with Fortech flares and a Honda B16a motor.

I love a good 510.
My buddy has or maybe had.....haven't seen him or it lately. But it's flat black. Gutted. Aluminum dash...thing is sick as hell.
I'd like to get one as a pure track car. My first car was a 71 240z. Damn Government stole it before I could drive it legally. Bastards.

I actually will be in the market for a 71 4 door 510 in the next few months....I wanna do one as a project car. Anyone know any good resources for finding them for sale? I did some searching on Yahoo....and found a few web sites....but not a whole lot, its not as easy to find them as I had thought.

Edit.....did they even make a 71 4 door? I guess a 2 door would work just fine too.
