Homage to the old 1972 BRE Datsun 510.

You’ll either love it or hate it. All paint, no decals and you can’t feel one line on this. Buried under 8 coats of clear.

Left a little hint of the carbon fiber hood and trunk just because it would have been a shame to cover it completely. 🙂

You really have to see it in person to see the quality of the work here.

the BRE NISSAN is taken from BRE DATSUN. Google it to find the whole story about the car.

I like it!!! But I still believe that Nissan Racing history is mostly based on RWD cars… But its different none the less.

Yeah, unfortunately, I only had the option of going so far with this replica. A RWD conversion wasn’t in the cards. 😉 Glad you like it though just the same.

AWD Sentra would be the shit. And then to have enough power to require slicks on all 4 corners, well now you’re talking. 🙂

Wheel spacers are for homo’s… buy the right size wheels in the first place

and this car is pretty awesome and a decent 1/4 mile time… bould it would look hot with some nice jdm rims

Someone needs to search for some AWD Sunny and Bluebird parts. If you see some Bluebird parts let me know.

Otherwise that looks damn nice. Props! :yeah:

Very cool, and a very nice job done on the vehicle.

I’m curious, so I have one question: What was the point of doing that? Do you have some form of ties to Bre-nissan/datsun, or are you road racing that car and needed a theme? Shop car? Show car? Just bored? Not knocking, just curious.

Nicely done though.
