Datsun 510 Drag Car with S/C V8

Hey, this is my Datsun 510. When I got it out of the box I was amazed how little the motor looked under the hood, so I took the supercharged v8 out of my SuperStallion. Then I put the racing seats from a WRX WRC car in it and took out the back seat, with Skyline brakes, front and rear, and steering wheel. I also made custom side pipes. The wheels are Advan RG wheels. The color is Testors Gloss Bright Blue.

Sorry, my pics suck. the paint isnt half as lumpy as the camera makes it.

You'd never be able to get that thing off the line. You'd just breath on the throttle and that thing would jump sideways.

I love it. Big thumbs up.

Can anyone say, "Full tube chassis?"

looks good. I'd've put a chevy in it myself, but it's cool nonetheless. keep up the good work.
