i did not know of datsuns till my friend brought home his 1979 datsun 620 and i loved that little truck then my other buddy brought home a 1978 datsun b210 it was kinda ugly but i still liked it one day we were working on the 210 when we looked over a wall and there it sat a 1975 dasun 710 looking all in disrepair we asked the guy what he wanted for it and he said it made his wife so happy that it was leaving that he almost gave it to me for free but he said 25$ so i jumped. it had been sitting for 20 + years my buddy with the 620 had an extra L20 B sitting in a junk 78 620 so he gave it to me and in four days i was driving it on the road i had one hell of a pit crew and i depleted my bank account but it was totaly worth it best car i ever owned been keeping photo logs on the process many things still to happen with it though i just got it running fast because it needed to be my daily driver but now i got a 92 sentra E so thats my daily driver now so VG here i come 5 speed lowered the whole 9 yards great deal

Hi.

Congratulations on your 710 purchase. It is a great car, and one of the least common Datsuns around in our side of the world.

Looks like a nice catch, from what I see, it was kept in the desert, that means dry climate. Damage to easier fixable items like upholstery and dash pad in that dry climate, but that also means less rust, or no rust at all ( that is wht non operational airplanes are parked for years at the south west desert areas, mostly Arizona, but also New Mexico and California.)

I also have a Datsun 710. Nice car!!!
