Earlier this year ZCarGarage found a very special 510 known as Turbo6. This dime is far from ordinary with its turbocharged inline-6 powerplant and extensive roll cage…all from the mind of 510-fanatic Bryan Feldman. It had changed ownership over the years and needed some ZCG love.
Rob’s plan for the restoration is simple: bring it back to the way it was when Feldman created it. It will be re-sprayed in the exact same paint by Williams. Drivetrain and interior will be thoroughly cleaned and restored, while staying true to the original build with details like gold-spoked Panasports and a Turbo Tom’s manifold.
Let the tear down begin!
With the engine out an interesting thing was discovered…the secondaries on the carb were rusted shut! As quick as it felt when we first drove it there is probably another 40-50hp when those secondaries are functioning.
Here is the drivetrain in all its glory…a Z-car straight-6 in a 510…wicked
Turbo6 is now off to Williams for paint and bodywork, stay tuned for more updates
