1970 Datsun 510

This Datsun 510 1600 is a rare 1970s saloon which reportedly benefited from some restorative maintenance in 2018. Power comes from the matching-numbers 1.6-litre ‘L16’ inline-four, delivering around 96kW to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. The odometer shows 87,614 miles, however this is not warranted. Build year: 1970 This 510 1600 is finished in white, and it rides on a set of 13-inch wheels with Windforce Catchgre GP100 tyres. The cabin is trimmed in black vinyl, and features a three-spoke steering wheel, as well as heating and ventilation controls. The seller notes that a kill switch and a replacement radiator have been installed. One ignition key will be supplied. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: the car was repainted in 2017; minor rust repairs were carried out; the dashboard was recovered and the headlining has been replaced; there is wear on the glovebox lid. The most recent technical inspection was reportedly completed in 2018. The most recent service was completed in 2023. Prior to this, there was a service in 2021 at around 82,200 miles. This Datsun 510 1600 is a rare 1970s saloon which reportedly benefited from some restorative maintenance in 2018. Resprayed and partially retrimmed, it would make a fine addition to a collection of Japanese classics, and a usable runabout to enjoy as a daily driver or a weekend cruiser.
