This has been a fun car to have. It is reliable and runs well. It has some cosmetic issues. but still looks great.

MECHANICAL

I bought the car in April 2012. I had the points and thermostat replaced early on. and since then I've had no problems mechanically. It starts easily. shifts smoothly. and does fine at highway speeds. The engine has not been modified. but someone put a five-speed (manual) transmission in it at some point. The carburetor has also been upgraded. It does not smoke or leak oil.

EXTERIOR

The biggest issue is that the liftgate and rear bumper were significantly damaged in a rear-end collision (see pictures). although the liftgate glass and adjacent body sections. lights. and reflectors were not damaged. The damage doesn't affect driving in any way. The liftgate doesn't open.

The rest of the exterior is in pretty good shape. The robin's-egg blue paint is shiny. and it's a great color for this car. The vinyl top is intact. with only minor fading. There are a few places where the paint is chipped and there is some rust behind the front left wheel well. which you can see in the pictures.

I don't know how old the tires are. They're not new. but there is no visible dry rot in the sidewalls. The wheel covers match.

The exterior handle for the driver's door is broken and that door has to be opened from the inside.

INTERIOR

• The vinyl door panels. back seat. and cargo area are all intact with no stains.
• The front seats are in rough shape. which is why they both have seat covers.
• I installed new shoulder belts so that I could drive my kids around with a clear conscience. They are non-retractable. but they're a cool color that matches the interior vinyl.
• The carpet has obvious wear. but no holes. Someone (not me) spilled blue paint on the carpet behind the driver's seat. so there's that.
• The headliner is intact. but has some holes. especially at the columns. and some discoloration.
• The dash pad has a split in the center.
• The instrument panel and dashboard are all original and look good.
• The vinyl/foam covering of the center portion of the steering wheel has pulled away from the steering-wheel assembly at the edges.

The odometer shows something over 39. 00 miles. but both the odometer and speedometer stopped working before I got the car. Whether that odometer reading means 139. 00 or 239. 00 is anybody's guess. As I said. however. the car runs well.

The original AM radio turns on and lights up. and some sounds come out of the speakers. but it doesn't tune in any stations. I never looked into what the issue is. The heater works. There's no A/C.

Thanks for looking and feel free to ask questions if I've omitted anything.

Very interested in your Datsun for sale. I had a 1971 (it was my first car), and I'd like to know what range of price you are looking for. Also, where is the car located.

Thank you, and EXTREMELY nice car from memory lane
