I felt hesitant about putting this in the 510 section. And I don't want to ever call it a 510.
I actually found proper Stanza badges on eBay in AU.
Haven't pulled the trigger though.
I posted it in "Other" over on the other sight...but I posted here first!

For the most part. There is bubbling in a few areas and 2 or 3 small cancerous spots.
The cancer is in difficult to work locations. Rear window edge, door opening. Nothing extreme-but still work.
She has an electrical ghost which I think I believe is related to the brake switch and/or the trailer harness I found wired in.
Combo switch assy is goofy. Clamshell missing. Electrical clusterfuck in the radio opening.
Meh. I will survey it better tomorrow or Sunday.
Stoked to be home. Stoked to have a Datsun to stare at that isn't a 620 shell.

And dealing with the crap the hack/owner between Banner and myself has done to it.
Overall...good shape.
The desert has not been nice to this car.
Oh boi!

Yeah,But it is repairable.
Wait and try a wet coast car(hence, my stuff is always in a garage for 10 months a year)

I do want to take a second to thank Banner for making this happen.
It was cool hanging out with you yesterday and today!
(Adam stayed in Idaho Togetaho.)
And to Ni10/Kim.
It was great meeting you and hanging out.
Keep an eye on this thread. I will make that A10 hatch in your yard disappear, piece by piece.
And most importantly, to Gladys, Ni10's wife.
We called Gladys when we stalled out and couldn't get this thing started.
If she had not have shown up-this blue turn may have been stuck in Hell's Canyon.
Car fired right up when she pulled into the parking lot. Wouldn't you know it?!?

Yeah. Rad guy.
He has more 510s in his yard than you own.
And 521s.
And 620s.
It has definitely been a good day.

BanMan was supposed to bring me one. Some other member said to pass one off.
And what did Adam leave at home?
No. I don't.
Do want.
Like 3 of them!
