1972 Datsun 510 GL review from North America
"The best I've ever driven"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well first the transmission droped then the thermostat blew and finally the radiator.
General comments?
My car has new Honda prelude seats, they are the best seats you'll find in any Datsun I've ever seen and comfortable to. I've also installed a much better engine a boss 302 in stead of the 1800 I had for the first 700,000mi. The car has great handling and a great two door frame and body. my car runs the quarter in 10.7 and Max's out at about 150mph.
