BIG POWAH Datsun 510




Thanks to Watchtower for this /Drive link.  It makes me nostalgic for my own 510.  But I'm not sure why: it has track-day-worthy running gear and suspension, a full cross-braced roll cage, and 400 h.p. Mine had 96 h.p. and positive camber in its near-stock rear suspension.  And it was a 4-door, often with kiddies in the back seat.  No comparison--different planets.  This car would be a hoot at Willow Springs.  Or on any other road course.  Note that it is street-legal (licensed in California).  Click on the link, and then click again on the video:
