Dad's Datsun 310 First Start 2

We fire up the Datsun the same day it comes home. Dad's happy.

I had one just like this... white with light blue interior(doors). I put 164,000 trouble free miles. Then it lost compression in one cylinder. gave it to my roommate, and over the weekend, he pulled the head, fixed the valve. He then sold his Datsun B210 and kept the 310. As my first car, I loved it.

I had a 1981 310 GX as a first car in 1988. I was 16. beat the heck out of that car, never complained. Never left me stranded. Loved it.

I had a 1979 Datsun 310 and I loved it.

I have a 1981 Datsun Cherry (the European name of the 310) 5 door hatchback in blue color! Sure, it has a little bit of rust but nothing unfixable. I'm in love with this car ;)

Kudos to Ben's gas can skills! It's great to see your Dad's car running. Did you try lighting the old gas to see how flammable it was??

[@dwhollrah]

Some of it went in my pickup...the rest in the M Farmall...seemed to run fine.

[@Tguin]

Any further plans with this vehicle?🤔

[@ingressodellaruahkennel7773]
