Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE 2-owner almost all original car. Original engine (rebuilt at least once) and transmission. My father began maintaining this car when he was a mechanic at the Datsun dealership in 1971. He later opened his own shop and the owner continued to trust him for all of the maintenance. He did a partial restoration about 15 years ago. The owner got too old to enjoy the car and gave my father first choice. Since my father had nowhere to store the car, I obtained it, and I'm technically the second owner. I got it in November of 2009 and drove it daily for over a year. I bought a more practical car and since then it hasn't seen many miles. It has ALWAYS been garage kept, but those who know these cars are familiar with the battery acid corrosion problems in the right front floorboard and frame rail. There is pretty severe corrosion in that area. There is also some rust in the rockers and the driver's side floorboard. There is virtually no rust other than that. See photos. Original color is green as can be seen in a few of the pictures. It cranks, runs, and drives great. I hate to sell it, but I'm moving to Chattanooga for work and won't have a garage to store it in. I also don't have the time, money, or expertise to make the repairs to the areas affected by rust. I have receipts for all of the work on this list and more.Walkaround video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVTl-xTYXo0 Good stuff: Black 14" Enkei 92's from the 80's in great shape New tires New Eibach lowering springs New adjustable Tokico Illumina shocks New polyurethane bushings throughout the suspension Custom 6x9 speaker box across the rear panel. It's wired up but the speakers aren't currently installed -- they will go with the car.
