1978 DATSUN B210 INCREDIBLE SURVIVOR
Just to set the record straight, the "It happened in 1978" website was wrong and I failed to double-check them. Too late to re-script the entire video. So, once and for all... According to Wikipedia and several additional sources it was actually 1976 when the album Hotel California was released NOT 1978

Our 1978 Datsun B210 with 19,600 actual miles. (31,500km) It has been garaged it's entire life. It has never been winter driven, and has seldom seen rain... No smoking ever. This car is not restored, it has never had any paint work of any kind. The body and interior are almost perfect. The engine compartment has not been detailed. The car is kept in climate control and only driven a few times each year to car shows. It has an EPA-mpg rating of 28 city and 41 highway! It is powered by a 1.4 liter 4-cylinder engine with a 4-speed manual transmission.

Cutting the roof off a car (Datsun B210) to make a converted (not convertible)
A bunch of guys decide to do something a bit different this day in June 1990, while at Central Michigan University (CMU) for a graduation party. They decide to chop the roof off of a Datsun B210 that was bought for just $125. It is quite funny, so take a look. This is how to make a convertable car. It is amazing how much structural support is provided by having an intact roof on a car. Driving this was dangerous, and it should not be done at home.
The Defect III (Datsun 120Y) lives!
July 1974 Datsun 120Y 4 door Sedan, which is known in some markets as a B-210 or Honeybee - it started life as a A12/3 speed Auto/H145 diff car - it's now is a B310 (Sunny) A12/ smoothcase four speed and BW68 diff in it as well as late model Australian 120Y sedan front suspension as well
the original A12 engine was seized... so I updated as much of it as I could to Aussie late model 120Y Sedan mechanicals
1978 Datsun B210 GX
A walk around of a surviving 1978 Datsun B-210. This is not my car.
1981 Datsun 210 B310
This is an old B210 Deluxe Exhaust clip that I made. Just a stock Exhaust. The engine has over 200K miles on it and is going to be replaced with an SR20DET instead of another A15.
