that just hurts to watch

There had better have been a lynching that followed that catastrophe.

[zerow]

If that happened to my car, I would have the hope that the clowns died in it.

 

Then I would find zen in the fact that KARMA GOTCHA FOOLS!

[MicroMachinery]

Looks like they snagged the SU carbs after they violated the poor thing..

[Drive510]

Soundtrack rocks!!! Sad story though =( . Any blood on the interior that the police can trace DNA with?? A face print on the windshield perhaps??!

[610SSS]

Makes me wonder how many are still out there.

 

 

EDIT: Another SSS down.

i swapped out my R160 3.70's for an R180 3.36 on my 610 and to my surprise, its actually quicker and much faster on top end too. the 3.70's were just too steep for the 22" tire dia. what gears are we all running in our cars just wondering?

Thanks Zero! for the donation once again !!!

i beleve my car is running 3.90s in the diff

[SublimeDatsun610]

isn't that thing limited to about 65mph? i was turning 3000+ at 70mph with the 3.70's. now its way better to drive. i am running the .864 OD 5spd.

[bonvo]

that doesnt sound right with a dogleg 5 speed i spin 2900 at 65mph

I can hear the excitement in your post!

 

Now, I need to find me a new (to me) differential...

[datsun 160J SSS]

have R160 with 3.90 gears in my 710 with 5 speed trans .L20B turns 2800 RPMs.at 65 works nice off the line and on the freeway if you shift it down and punch it your gone .overall best gears 3.70 to tall .4.11 would kill your freeway top end speed . :)

My '74 710 sedan came with H165 and 4.11s. It shifts into second after one car length and is hardly noticed. Third is about the the other side of an intersection and more noticeable, and then a long wind up and up and up to highway speed all the time expecting a gear shift that never happens. The goon has 3.70 with 4 speed. I may swap the diffs when I put the 5 speed in it. The auto sedan should still run ok and maybe not whine so much.

I just picked up a Datsun ( i think its a 610 ) all it says is 1800 . I havent seen it close yet and IS a project . My buddy found it over in Oregon and is going to bring it down in a couple weeks . Ive got a couple pics on my I- phone i will try to post but after comparing numerous pics on this thread , its identical to the clean light brown on on page 61 of this thread next to the green slatted chain link fence . What have i got ?? Thanks in advance !!!

This is a 180-B probably from Oz or NZ (built in NZ) where they were called that. In Japan they were called Bluebird Us, but here they were simply the Datsun 610.

 

Check the grill and bumpers likely you have just a 610. :D

 

 

.

[loveoldrice]

Grill looks just like it and i think the bumper too ( kinda tuff to tell in the pics and unforetuneatly both front and rear bumpers are crunched :(

[loveoldrice]

Oz or Nz ??? Excuse my ignorance , please explain . Thanks Mike !!

That pic right there is a bonafide, genuine 610.

[datzenmike]

Oz or Nz ??? Excuse my ignorance , please explain . Thanks Mike !!

 

Oz: Oz-tralia: Australia, also referred to as 'land of Oz'. Known for their insane/radical car builds, getting Datsun models we only dream of but with smaller motors than us and toilets that flush backwards.

 

NZ: New Zealand

[610SSS]

Its LHD, Probably not from OZ or NZ.

[loveoldrice]
