[brianglawson]

ok well heres the deal, the sx is coming close to finished well enough for it to be my daily ride. So im looking for a famous race car to do a semi accurate replica of, My father wants to do BRE, and build him an Autox, so i dont wanna do BRE, not to mention after the z, i plan to make a 510 to AutoX, and it will probably boast a 1971 BRE trans am scheme haha, but i would like to do some sort of racecar to mine, im just not to knowledgable on what all was out there so throw me some ideas please, plus i would like to see all the beautiful raccers anyway:)

"Big Sam" would be my replication of choice. You can read all about this famous Z race car on zhome.com

Ditto, that car is awesome!! :devious:

I am also partial to the first Bob Sharp 240Z that was if I recall a solid darker color like black or blue. Picture is in the book "How to Hotrod and Race your Datsun".

I do like the tri color BSR cars better than the BRE cars.

Do them both in nissan Works rally style and have a matching pair.

Any factory works car does it for me. Old friend of mine Rob Gibson had a 510, looked like a saloon car, sucker had SSS parts all over it. He had a late 69 Z also looked like a rally car without the graphics or aux lamps. Moved away, wish I knew where.
