My 810 SSS

hello everyone not new to forums but giving them ago again as im excited about my newproject

 

 

 

 

 

 

So I wanted something old again as they are simple to work on mechanically wise always being a fan of old school cars i have recently gained suitable employment to allow me to take one on

 

 

after doing some research i decided on either a Datsun 1600 or a ke55 , both cars i have previously owned and are familiar with though i couldn't find a decent enough ke and the prices for a decent 1600 is ridiculous i stumbled on this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Datsun 200B SSS it was a little rough but if i could snag it for the right price it would be win win so i chucked a bid on it and happily i won it for dirt cheap

 

 

 

 

of course being a datsun there was bound to be rust so i wasnt suprised when i saw this photos

 

 

 

 

 

 

So i will need to get that sorted out when it arrives.

 

 

this will be no race car just a fun cruiser.

 

 

gotta love the brown moldy interior

 

you might notice the lack of Manual I could change this in the future

The 4 cylinder versions were shorter than our 810s. Europe got the Dual SU L18s and long dogleg transmissions.
