1979 Datsun 510 2-door sedan review from North America
"A quick yet economical sedan"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Muffler has gone bad.
Carb replaced at 106,000.
Starting to rust around the wheel-wells.
General comments?
This car is surprisingly quick and responsive; a real sleeper.
The seats, however, are really uncomfortable.
With rebuilt carb, excellent gas mileage!
