Rod's '78 Datsun 200SX gets pimped!

[lisamj95]

My Mom got one when I was 5 and it was brand new, she didn't get rid of it till I was 19. It made me so happy to see this. Now she has Honda S2000 convertible. Pay back for having a car that was cool when she got it,then got divorced and had a kid to raise alone, and now is back having a cool car.

why would you ever sell this car lol, i'll post a vid of mine its the 77 200sx

[giz02]

Ahh.. Sweet memories... I had an 'Eggnog' colored 78 200sx... Sinfully ugly.. but it was quite a performer... Durable as hell..

[Seattlecarnut]

While I can't say I care for the music, I do like the car. I like the way it's been fixed up.

[hotrod43]

Folks...it's now for sale

[Seattlecarnut]

Awesome looking car! I've always loved the styling of the '78 Datsun 200SX, more so than the 80s 200SX. Have you anything else regarding the car?

[subzero92MK]

is it a silvia?

[JDMSE3P]

@subzero92MK In Japan, it's known as Silvia S10.

[subzero92MK]

@JDMSE3P ah thx man

[PawlieGR]

That is one hideous car.

[hotrod43]

Guess that's why they sold so many during the 3 years of this body style.

[ducatinova]

I've never seen one that didnt have a big stripe down the side.

[JDMSE3P]

Cool! My parents had a green one. Learned how to drive in that car. Brings back memories!

[hotrod43]

Had to replace the one I had in college. Love it!

[LVS12DAVE]

I was worried you where going to ruin the car when I saw the title. Luckily you just fixed it up nice.

[hotrod43]

Want to drop a 5 speed and a bigger motor in it.

[LVS12DAVE]

A z22e with a 5 speed would be pretty simple and sweet.

[hairblaze]

does it still get 28/40 mpg???

[hotrod43]

Not with that Singer sewing machine motor

[deannadynamite94]
