We're pretty sure that there were no roots style supercharger manufacturers for Datsuns, let alone the 510. Someone went through some pretty amazing fabrication work to stick a blower on this L20B and we like it. Aside from the crazy cool supercharged L20B this car has fenderflares (they look like they're from a MK1 rabbit), a welded diff, 5 speed trans(!), S2000 brake master cylinder, and slicks. There are some other cool parts in this build, but the car still needs to be finished. It looks like this car was being setup to be a drag car so there may need to be some fine tuning if you're looking to do another application. Brake lines, wiring, and new custom rear wheel wells need to be installed. Find it here, in Watsonville, CA, for an amazing $2,400.

Craigslist Find: '73 240Z, GNose, Blown SBC
The GNose is a polarizing look for the 240Z. It completely transforms the look of the car into something that you either love or hate. This car looks great with the BMW Sepang Bronze Metallic contrasting nicely against the bare carbon fiber flares. While the body is purely Japanese, the motor is a roots blown, all american small block Chevy. Seller states that the interior needs work, but makes no mention of brakes or suspension upgrades. The car is also running an automatic TH350 transmission. The seller has not listed a price but judging from the only trade he would like to make, (MKIV Supra) he's looking for a considerable amount for this car. We're not sure how much it's actually worth without seeing more pics of the motor, interior, suspension, and brakes. In this situation, it's best to contact the seller and feel out how much value he places on the car. If you're local go see the car before making an offer. Find it here, in Fresno, CA, make an offer!

Craigslist Find: '05 Mustang Race Car, Supercharged V6
The V6 Mustang has always had a hard time getting recognition from enthusiasts as a performance car. This '05 V6 looks to change that with the addition of a supercharger and some serious racing gear. The biggest advantage of a V6 is that it's lighter, which makes the front of the car feel more nimble. The supercharger does add some weight to the front end, but it does help close the gap in HP between the GT and the standard car. This car also benefits from a roll cage, full suspension, and what looks like a hydraulic hand brake for you drifting fans. It's also worth mentioning that despite all of the racing goodies, the car is street legal as well. Find it here, in Anaheim Hills, CA, for $10,000.

Event: Mopars at the Strip 2012, Part 4
We set off for the final day of Mopars at the Strip with our heads pounding, stomachs emptied, and our jackets smelling of overly sweet perfumes from the night before. This Mod Top Roadrunner is great representation of our memories from the previous night.

Forum Find: Why Get a New ZL1 Camaro?
We're enjoying the current state automotive market, everything is reliable, comfortable, and very fast compared to what was available in the mid to late 90's. Sometimes a deal comes along that makes you reconsider what a car is all about. We like the everything about the new ZL1 on paper, but at the end of the day we feel that it's just a consumable product. It won't be an icon for future generations to look back on with a prideful grin, muttering something about how those were the days when cars were cars. They'll look to the late 60's just as we do. Our point is that for $20,000 less than the base MSRP of a new ZL1 Camaro you can have this 1969 Camaro that's powered by a Kenne Bell supercharged LQ4. That's right, $34,000 is all that's being asked for this car. The old '69 has had a complete suspension upgrade to coilovers, big Willwood brakes, a freshly rebuilt T56, and many other improvements to help this car keep up with the best America has to offer today. We're willing to bet that you would have the time of your life with this car. That being said, this is an old car and it will not be as reliable as new. But for the price you can buy a brand new fuel efficient daily driver and till be under the cost of a new ZL1. With cars like this out there, we just have a hard time seeing the appeal of buying the new watered down version of the original. Find it here Paducah, KY on the pro-touring.com classifieds.
