For Sale: 1970 Datsun 1600 in Lavergne, Tennessee

The Sora Blue paint on this 1970 Datsun 1600 Sports Roadster pulls you in-it's factory-correct and laid down in base/clear for a smooth, proper finish. From the sharp body lines to the contrast of the black vinyl convertible top, this drop-top nails the look with subtle confidence. It rides on 14" 280Z Black Pearl alloy wheels wrapped in 185/70R14 tires from General, giving it a clean, period-right stance with a bit more attitude. The fresh chrome and trim help bring everything together with tight, tidy execution.

Inside, the black vinyl bucket seats keep it simple and classic, with just enough comfort for a fun weekend run. A clean gauge cluster anchors the dash, while new black carpets and fresh seals dial back the years. A center console frames the manual shifter and gives everything a factory-correct feel. You'll also find an AM/FM stereo tucked into the dash, and the cabin benefits from good airflow with the top down-or seal it up with the newer vinyl roof and plastic rear window.

The 1600cc inline-4 is backed by a 4-speed manual transmission and breathes through dual SU carburetors. It's been given plenty of attention with a ceramic-coated header, gear reduction starter, new gaskets, hoses, thermostat, fuel pump, and even a GM single-wire alternator. A rebuilt clutch and throwout bearing transfer power, while fresh transmission and pinion seals help keep things dry. Up front, stainless-relined brake calipers with new pads grip disc brakes, and out back it's all rebuilt too-wheel cylinders, shoes, lines, and master cylinder. Suspension rides on coils up front and leafs in the rear, all tied together with new shocks and bearings.
