biffanyus Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 (edited) I thinking of getting this 78 Datsun B210 here in FL.. I spoke to the seller and Im trying to arrange a way to pick it up. What do you guys think. Has a weber on it and has all the a/c parts but non functional as of now. It is an Automatic though but I dont mind that.

NorthWet Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I personally preferred the 1200, but the B210 was a pretty reliable beast. It is certainly not a speed demon, especially with an auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxy Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) Hey very easy conversion to drop an L series engine in with a 610 front cross-member as the B210 was also sold as a PB210 in Japan this one was like mine the ex Sheka Mehta works Datsun PB210 they are talking about in the link. Search on the topic of L series into 120Y or B210 and you will find all the information you need using mostly stock Nissan parts, there is a dedicated section on Datsun1200.com for B210's and most members are from either Australia or the US they are a fun toy when done well. http://datsun1200.com/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=1921 Edited September 1, 2013 by coxy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 It would be great with an L20 in it. I sure don't miss setting up the timing chain on those however Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nipper Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I had a 210 and a 310, nice reliable little cars for the time. Keep them away from salt, dont even let them see a salt shaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scole665 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I had a B210 in college, but it looked different than yours (it was light blue tho). I think it might have been a newer model. As I recall, it was a great car. I don't remember what I did with it though. I like the honeycomb hubcaps. So Koool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
