A question to the forum's pro

[guaro]

Is the 510 in the two door variant catching the Z in value , 1971 Datsun 510 2dr frame up restoraton :bulb:

[zKars]

Yes, or damn near!

Silly little homely bricks are shockingly popular. Every home should have at least one Z and one 510 for balance. Agreed?

I don't know why people insist on calling a Custom Car or Street Mod Car - fully restored. Custom, he'd be lucky to get anything near $10K. An actual bone stock - properly restored 73 510 2dr.... I don't think it would take long to sell one for $16K. A 71...perhaps, but the people I know seem to want one of the more limited production 73's.

FWIW,

On the other hand... you could perhaps buy this for $17.5K...

An SLK32 AMG - with 60K original miles - one owner car. Only about 4000 produced between 2001 and 2004..

OR

Lots of alternatives in that $16K to $18K range... competing for the buyers.
