Jaliya48 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Neat, might have to try that sometime on my waggs... Of course, cluster visibility has improved significantly since I cleaned the whole cluster properly today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Whenever I feel like my office work is a bit too stressful (or boring for that matter), I turn to this thread, and I'm always relieved. Looks like your 510 has been discussed on the forum way before you laid your hands on her Komi. Just came across this while I was reading through some old posts. http://forum.autolanka.com/topic/13954-mitsubishi-a72-1400sl-5fwd/page-2#entry215860 Anyway, some pics of the engine please?

Komisiripala Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 No irage. Closer to hell, a better guess. A little more modern practicality for an old dog. A day more for the auction. Having everything crossed for the tach! Will post done photos soon, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komisiripala Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Thanks man. Tachometer went for 260$ on eBay. That's more than the cost of the L16 :'( Bought a period gear knob as a consolation prize! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaliya48 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Someone wanted that particular tachometer very badly! Show us your gear knob then! Does it have the pattern or a script? Also, are you fitting fender mirrors on your 510? Edited March 6, 2013 by Jaliya48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komisiripala Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Pattern. From a seller in Kuwait. I'll upload a photo. No mate I like door mirrors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JadeyBlitzen Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 So here I was heading home this evening when I peeked into a small used car lot and spotted a very familiar face. It was another Datsun 510! I quickly turned around and came back to investigate. Predictably it was a 4 door, a 10 sri example this time. So deffo recon, considering it had the 60s horizontal speedo. It had most of the parts on it but it had the unloved classic feel to it. The rear quarters must have been turned out of filler. and possibly by hand from the looks of things. Apparently it runs but couldn't check cos there was no battery in it and the owner was out at the time. Seems like all the hidden 510s are resurfacing suddenly.

Komisiripala Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Nice! I honestly didn't believe this car could generate so much interest! Didn't drive it whole day yesterday, and it was so difficult! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
