And, recent hot topic - is this 918?  71 with a 289Z 5 speed.  Looks nice, but, is it just me, or have the quarters seen some work?  They seem bulbous.  Might be a new record for pictures - 316, not counting the videos and the first few.

More Datsuns.  A 1978 Black Pearl, very shiny, with good bumper rubber.  But, they forgot to ask for the 5 speed.

That was a much better looking car then this ugly silvia!  My first car was a datsun (sunny) 140Y coupe..  looks alot like your B210 coupe! 😉 

That silvia.. what a design... i find it ugly .. seen from any angle..

Canada's version of that car wasn't called the Silvia, I think maybe the sx180  but for sure not very pleasing to look at.

The owner values it.  It didn't sell.

Another 510.  Looks pretty clean, only one license plate (see the blue 510 above).  I'm going to say it get's within $1000 of 40K.  Very original, minor mods.

$31,000 was not enough for the yellow 510.

$30,000 for the crusty silver 71 240Z.

But a silver 77 takes its place.  5 speed.  Looks survivorish.
