GOOD CHANCE TO MAKE A LATE SEASON INVESTMENT IN RISING VALUE VINTAGE AUTOMOBILE.
Runs and drives. solid car. Not a Ferrari. it's a Datsun but still fun to drive. This one is an estate find I have the privilege of selling. Good overall condition and running project candidate. clean title. Original numbers match car. Pros and cons just like any good old car you can wrench on.
 One real positive aspect is that the car has. in the past. been coated head to toe and undercarriage with Tuff-Kote-Dinol and can be identified by the white tabs in the threshold areas of the car. That's fantastic considering these cars are known rust monkeys. The quality of the body can largely be credited to that I'm sure. Original color but not original paint.  Other than that it hasn't been messed with much at all. original honest car- very minor dents. dings. scratches. touch-ups. Not a trailer show car but fun to drive.  
This is what the car would need to be a top motor: upper windshield chrome strip. door latch bezel. stereo. heater core. brakes are squishy for an old car but newer brakes. feel like they need to be bled. tune-up. cleaning and basic maintenance. Also. exhaust sounds loud in my opinion so may benefit from some work. Slight squeak when it starts up because of an old belt. but we have the new replacement belt. and the sounds subsides to nothing after running for a few moments. The up-close picture of the windshield is to show the small crack in the glass. Small dent (most significant one) to very rear driver side. pictured. Interior seats are in good condition. new rear cargo carpet to cover solid frame- photoed. Needs plastic hatch paneling. Arm rest console is detached and the material has worn. not as in good of condition as seats. Dash has a couple of cracks as pictured and common for this vehicle. Dash acrylic is faded and foggy-ish. Driver door has slight rip by driver door handle that will be covered by proper handle bezel. Lights and signals work. Manual windows in working condition. Temp gauge not working. New wiper blades in original wipers working. Needs new rubber door weatherstripping. and the whole car could benefit. Will build up condensation interior. Floors are in cleaner condition than photos show. Very solid overall with only rust spots in the old spare tire reservoir. someone never removed the plug- this is pictured and appears to be the only rust on the vehicle. but doesn't effect structural integrity. decent tires on original ITP hurricane wheels. Pretty cool old find to tweak in the fall and winter and play with next season.
