I've come to the realization that I'm never going to get around to doing the things I would like to do, so I am interviewing for the next custodian of my 510. It's a 72 2 door that's been extensively autocrossed in the 99s and 2000s. I've ended the car 33 years now, and although somewhat forelimb looking these days, it has some good bits.
Z22 bottom end with Wiseco 12:1 pistons and Mechart SS rods.
Flowed big valve L20B head
Mikuni 44s
7 quart baffled oil pan
5 speed
Lightened steel flywheel with 6 paddle clutch
4:32 Nissan comp clutch type LSD
Coilovers
Wilwood callipers-and rotors
Adjustable TC rods
Camber plates
13"x7" Libre wheels
Z aluminum drums
Front seats are pretty rough but the rest of the interior is good
BRE style body work. It's definitely showing it's age and needs attention.
Very minor corrosion (stored dry for the last 32 years.

Forelimb looking. Super curious as to what that involves.

OK! I just wondered if there was some terminology that I didn't know. I couldn't figure out what the typo was. I actually think autocorrect doesn't help us - because it changes the typo to an actual word, which is more confusing.

Re: Searching for a new caretaker
I just bought a very similar 510 last year, out of Saginaw! Was extensively autocrossed in the SW Michigan region, throughout the 80's into the 90's. Brian Rebney (RIP) had amassed a TON of trophies with this car (along with rallye trophies with a different rallye 510 in the 70's). I am just now diving into getting it back on the road, so other than it having the obvious L16 block, an A87 head (peanut??), dual Mikuni's, header & suspension work, the car is a mystery, waiting to be brought back to life, after being stored inside, likely since the late 90's!
