I appreciate the kind words! Sadly, I recently bought that car, and those plates belonged to the owner. I found it quite funny myself.

Awesome pics guys. Seeing those is the inspiration I need in order to not give up. I am doing a KA24DE swap on my '71 Estate. I can only hope that it will someday look as clean as KApwr'd510's Estate. I should be done with the swap this week but it has not been easy since I bet a friend I could do it for less than $300. Here is the link to my old pics (before the swap began) http://huntbrothers.kicks-***....state/ and here is a crappy pic of the swap now.Test your knowledge: aside from the motor swap, what doesn't look right in this pic?

Bingo! Guess it wasn't too hard with that pic and the engine taking up 90% of it, lol. The previous owner of the Estate made them that way as a cheap solution to the passenger wiper motor and mount rusting through. So he got the Australian driver's side wiper (U.S. passenger side) and welded the bezel to the stock one. He did a great job, you can't even tell where he welded it. Anywho, I realy like your car and I promise never to compare mine to yours, lol. Only that I hope it can be half as nice.

the "suicide wipers" ( we call them "Mc Donalds wipers" over here ), came factory on all 1968 models of the 510.
in 1969, they changed to the conventional style wipers.But you can tell your wipers were modified like that from original convential style ones.

Yeah a buddy of mine mentioned that the '68 models came like that only after I posted it. My bad. In hindsight I would rather have the traditional style wipers as they can't get stuck on each other. I just hate keeping them far enough apart because they look a bit off.

They get stuck on each other on the way back down if they are not seperated enough. When they ARE seperated enough they look ugly sitting on the windshield 3" apart and the driver side wiper is at an angle.

My '71 510 Estate with the KA24DE swap for $273... not recommended for the faint of heart.
Like my return line over the valve cover? Used an old vent tube line. 
SR20DET fuel pump. It's what was available and it works just the same.

Thanks. Although I must say that even though it's a stock 240SX engine and tranny in a car that weighs 600lbs less AND it's not running P/S P/B A/C EGR or the clutch fan, it doesn't run as fast because the rear end is a 3.70 instead of the stock 240SX 4.08531 AND my O2 sensor is in the old EGR tube port. But it definitely runs a lot faster than the L20b that was in it.Today must be bearings day because I had to replace the LF wheel bearings and seal along with the throwout bearing.

Picky, picky...... just kidding...I learned how to drive stick on my Dad's by taking the wagon on a trip around the neighborhood while he was taking a nap. By the time I "barely" made it back, the clutch was gone. Pops was upset that day,.... I thought I share that with you...I will be keeping tabs with your project, looks good.

A 2000GTX is not a straight six version of the 610 pictured above. The closest thing we got in the US to a straight six version of the 610 would be the 810. And I see 610's (the red, white and blue car pictured above) all the time. One came in second in the 'other Datsun' catagory at the recent Japanese Classic Car Show in Long Beach. You're just not looking in the right places, I guess. But I might suggest visiting some of the more vintage Datsun sites for info, rather than posting bad info about them here.

I agree with MIG.Also the 280Z pictured above is technically a 280ZG. I know I'm being anal but aren't we all.

with anality also comes info.difference between a Z and ZG? when I said I've not seen a 610, I meant in person
if the 2000GT and GTX aren't part of the 610 lineage.....then what are they?
from what I've gathered, they're an L20 powered 610 Bluebird, either with a 2 barrel carb in GT trim or twin SU carb's for a 10 hp increase. the L20 carried over to the 810. trying to catch up with 40 years of history is giving me a hell of a headache, any aspirin and advice?

The 2000GTX has it's own lineage. Skyline. Starting in 1957-1963 with the first generation known as the ALSI 1 which was actually built by Prince Motors. Gen 2, 1963-1966 was known as the S50 and was the frist one they raced. There was no 1967 as the company was in transition. Gen 3, 1968-1972, the C10, was designed still by Prince but funded by Nissan who bought out Prince in 1968. This is the one known as a "Hakouska". Gen 4, 1973-1977, the C110, was exclusively Nissan. The is the one known as the Kenmeri or Ken & Mary. That's the one you pictured. Gen 5, 1977-1981, the C210. Gen 6, 1981-1985 is the R30. Gen 7, 1985-1989, the R31. Gen 8, 1989-1994, the R33. Gen 10, 1999-2002, the R34. No Bluebird anywhere in that lineage. I could go through the Bluebird lineage-310, 410, 411, 510, 610, 810 etc. but you asked about the 2000GTX and it's part of the Skylne lineage posted above. From 2003 up it's based on the Infiniti G35.

I've still found that the 2000GTX title was on the Bluebird as was the 2000GT. The main difference between the two models was the carb option on the L20.I'm assuming Nissan used this designation on both models. this would be the 610 take on the 2000GTX.
 same goes for the 2000GT. true or am I just getting bad info? I DID find the difference between a Z and ZG though  these are ugly, but I still love them  Mig, you're clearly a person with a long history of Datsuns...what've you had?

The 610 series is part of the Bluebird family. I think they actually refered to it as the 180B overseas. Besides the ones in my signature, I've owned a 70 and a 72 240Z, several 510s, other pickups including three 70 PL521s, a 68 520, and a 73 620, a 410 sedan (66 or 67, I cant recall), a 1970 SPL311 1600 roadster, a 1980 200SX, a 1979 HLA10 (510), a 1980 HLA10 (510), a 1974 B210 hatchback, etc. The 280ZX you've pictured is not a ZG but rather a 280ZXR which was a rather limited production car made in the early 80s on the S130 platform. The ZG was based on the S30 series Z. It was introduced in Japan in late 71 to homologate the the 240Z for Group 4 racing. The main differences between it and the export model 240Z are the long nose, the riveted on overfenders, the headlight covers, the rear spoiler, and the fender mounted mirrors.

that's a hell of a list there...I'm aware it's a ZX-R, it was maid for the sole purpose of making that whale tail legal for racing. I'm wanting to say only 300 got made to meet the required amount of production models, it might have been 500 though.... I'd love to have one or a Red and Black 10th anniv car at some point. I've actually seen a black and gold in a junkyard Datsun/Nissan is just so rich in history.... kudos on owning one of the ugliest Silvia's made I got lucky and scored a free turbo S12 200sx. within a few years, I'd like to have a 240Z or a Fairlady Roadster (I'm actually surprised that someone 6'4" would be able to drive one in an almost normal position.)

Only paid 100 bucks for it! Everything on it worked including the a/c. Cleaned it up, put a couple of tires on it and drove it for three years and then sold it to a friend of mine who put another 100K miles on it before it died.
