    RIP Sean. We had fun with that car, we would go racing on Friday nights and drifting on Sundays in West Miramar before it was developed. I had the yellow Datsun 510 with the 240 engine.

      Great memories for sure. That yellow 510 was my inspiration.

    That sound brings back memories of my 1981 Toyota Corolla 1.8 with side draft headers and the gas/exhaust smell in the cabin 😂😂😂
