Rattlsnaks RSR is here!
 

Rattlsnaks 72 RSR arrived last week! Here are some pics in it's new SoCal home next to my 510. Had to fly to Seattle for a wedding this past weekend so haven't had a chance to go for a 'real' ride, but it's ready. Thanks Rattlsnak.

BTW Gold Rush Motorsports did a very professional job communicating and transporting the car.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128482202.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128482230.jpg

Nice!

need more pictures!! girlfriend on my lap likes it too!!!

That is stunning!!! More pics please. :D

Really nice and love the 510 too. A 510 was my first car and hoping to get another one someday.

Go Kermit!!!!

Looks great!
Are you going to track it?
What groups do you run?

Lucky devil...Not the guy with the girl on his lap, the owner of the green 911.

wow what a fantastic car

enjoy it

nice looking car, please post more pics!
what kind of hood is that?

Two of my most favorite cars in the world...Datsun 510 and Porsche 911.

What are the specs on the 510...L18?..L16...twin SUs??

Yasin

WOW !!

I was just thinking of SNACK-MAN'S car last night !! I would have LOVED to have bought that !!!

Sorry he HAD to download it !! (Even more sorry I didn't get it!!)

Looks like it's in good hands though !!

Love the 510 !!


Need pics of the chick on the lap thing !!!

:p

oh man he sold it...wow you are a lucky man to have a car like that! More pics please.

Atlanta is sad to see it go. I've seen the car at local gatherings and it is a jaw-dropper.

Sweet. You got a screaming deal on that beauty.

Next up, we've got to get you out on the big track at Willow in it. I doubt the 510 has ever taken you as far south of 1:30 mark as that RSR will be capable of doing.

more pics...
 

More pics as requested. I plan on a few more upgrades, so I'll keep you all posted.
BTW-the hood is steel and was nicely fabricated by the previous owner, Rattlsnak.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128567551.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128567592.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128567617.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128567650.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128567673.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1128567691.jpg

Eric,
That is truely beautiful. Where did you get that silver fllor board behind the pedals which replaces the wooden one?Isit a one size fit or a custom make?

Sameer-
The floor boards and pedals are a kit from Rennline.

Eric ,
Thanks. Another thing, with the hood modification which I'm assuming from Elephant Racing, does any water get in?

Eric can you give us a hint of what the upgrades will be?

Re: more pics...
 

oh man, it's what my car aspires to be

and for you 510 lovers...
 

Don't worry P car enthusiast's, no more Datsun talk after this.

Had a couple responses about the 510. It's a 1970 with a 1.6L w/twin Mukuni 44's. I built it in 1998 and I'm still making upgrades to it. It's raced with VARA here in SoCal.

Well, you obviously know how to put together an excellent car, so I see good things for the RSR. Not that it isn't pretty damn nice already, but, we all have to make a car "our own."

my buddy has a white 510 here in pasadena thats bound to hit the streets soon. i love those little cars, great starting point. that green rsr is something else, have we seen enough rsr's already? seems like socal is the place to have one. when do the 934/935 reps start showing up, seems like the next logical step. anyone wanna donate money to my car fund? too many ideas not enough time.

that will be the death of me, gordon murray's startup co. here i come!

ryder

Thanks for the pics. That RSR is automotive porn!!! :D

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

I am green with envy.

That is a great looking color and a real nice car :) !

Goldrush...I know those guys !

How about some "seat of the pants" driving impressions.

How does it run??

nice race car... your 510 just made it into my nissan/datsun folder :D

Gorgeous Car! Great color! Best of luck with her!

Well i do miss her, but it defintely went to a good home.

For you others who were asking questions about the car, do a search under my name and keyword "project" and you can see a history of it being built.

Good luck with her Eric! Keep us posted!

The 510 is a BMW 2002 w/o all the expense...

very sanitary!

Hey, I live over in Redondo. When can I come by and see that beastie? Congrats on a beeeeyouteeful car.

Whis is it that San Fran has EASY, Orange County has Crystal Cove and, yet, LA is bigger than both put together and we have nothing like that?

LA has the Malibu Canyons. That trumps all:)

Nice machine Eric, hope to see it at the next Run.

and pics of the engine bay area.....
