Oscar Lemus: 1973 Datsun 510

Oscar Lemus has a deep appreciation for Nissan motorsports heritage, especially the Brock Racing Enterprising history and livery found on iconic Datsuns of years past. When he got his hands on a 1973 Datsun 510, he decided to blend different eras of Nissan and Datsun prowess into one platform, modified with an emphasis on fun driving and good looks.
