1970/71 Datsun 510 Race Car - Looking for history.
Jan 2^nd, 2015 at 3:27pm

I've recently purchased a 1970/71 Datsun 510 Race Car. I'm looking to find out if anyone recognizes it. I've been in contact with many in the community and they've all mentioned that this is worth a shot.

I've determined so far that is was in a 7hr endurance race on Oct 7, 1989. Not 100% sure who the driver was (guessing it was the owner at the time, Rod Stacey).

I really curious if it's heritage goes back further.

Here a picture. When I'm allowed I'll link to more.

Currently, I'm compiling a todo list of repairs.

Cheers,

Wade

So, we need somebody who's been around for a while to have a look.

Reply #4 - Jan 6^th, 2015 at 9:36am I've made contact last evening with the Driver/Constructor of the car last night. I made some phone calls on Friday, and I received a call back last night. I'll be hopefully getting more information soon, that I may need verification from the community on. Wade

Reply #5 - Jan 7^th, 2015 at 6:43pm Some of the long term members of the SCCBC must remember this car. I issued the log book for it in 1989. 25+ years and too many cars to remember them all. Wade could maybe jog my memory if he posted the original driver/owner name.
