Vehicle Detail
Up for sale is my 50,000 mile pristine '71 Datsun 510 very seldom seen in this rare beautiful white w/blue interior. This car sold new as many did with no radio as most we're installed by the dealer at time of sale. What is rare is the fact that for the past 45 years it still has never had a radio! It still has the original dash blanking plate and rubber plugs for the antenna on the right windshield post. I of course chose to leave it this way. Everything was done in this very thorough restoration with originality being top priority. It's near perfect body with zero rust and faded original paint was given a fresh base-coat/clear-coat paint job in the original (904) Ivory White. Every facet of this car if needed has been rebuilt using new or NOS parts when available. It's even riding on a set of original type NOS bias ply whitewalls that really give it a time-capsule look. For everyday driving or short trips I use another set of original 13" rims with radial whitewalls & full hubcaps(both sets included in sale of car). I drive this car in nice weather only and it runs and drives like a new one. I have only driven it 800 miles in nearly 3 years! It really should be in a museum but could certainly be driven everyday if that is your wish. Most of these vintage '68-'73 Datsun 510's you see for sale have had engine/trans conversions or have rust or are in non-original condition or all of the above. This is as close to bone stock as I've ever seen. The dash pad, tunnel carpet & vinyl floor mats are original too. It's expensive and extremely labor intensive to take a 510 to this level. All that being said, I am offering this one at a 'Buy-it-Now' price of way less than I have invested. Thanks for looking!
