5/10 Days of the Past

 

We have plenty of 510 content for you to enjoy, starting with the most famous Dime of all time…when the Brock Racing Enterprises (BRE) Datsun 510 #46 race car arrived at Z Car Garage.

 

Despite being against all odds, our hero John Morton drove this 510 to SCCA Trans-Am series championship victories in 1971 and 1972, putting Nissan on the map and fueling every Datsun enthusiast’s passion. In preparation for the Velocity Invitational at Laguna Seca we dyno tested this legendary race car. Turn those speakers up and enjoy the video!

Enjoy some of our favorite 510s at the shop:
