The 510 was reintroduced for 1978-’79 with a new chassis and body and the overhead-valve, L20B four-cylinder, 97-hp four-cylinder engine that displaced 1952ccs. The unit-body 510s had independent front suspension and four-link coil rear suspensions, except the wagon, which had leaf springs in back. Sedans and hatchbacks had reclining front bucket seats, and all models had fold-down rear seats, carpeted cargo areas, tinted glass, electric rear defrosters, side window defoggers, transistorized ignition, and all-vinyl or cloth-and-vinyl upholstery.
The wagons measured 172.6 inches from tip to tip and weighed in at 2,365 lbs. with the four-speed manual. Four- and five-speed manual transmissions were available, along with a three-speed automatic.
Phased out and replaced by the 81 Datsun / Nissan Stanza
Exceptional build quality, striking low-slung design, and loaded list of standard gear-including a 150-hp DOHC inline-six, independent suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes. Unmatched attention to detail. The stitching - The woodworking - The depth of the gloss on that dash and console... And that glorious steering wheel. This is from a time when cars had soul.
I’m bringing back my 1993 Honda Accord SE automatic with a Bose factory head unit and 6 disc changer in the trunk. (I’m not sure if I love just the car or am i also in love with how simple my life was while I had it?)
what exact year and trim am I looking at? And does anyone know what one of these would have cost new?
Design by Claes Feder and Eric Christiansson. I haven’t seen hull lines this graceful since the Olympic class.
For me in the earlier seasons it’s the Act Of God (smog) episode. And later, the episode MouMou is nearly unwatchable for me.
The YouTube video said $4500 which seems ludicrous unless there is something I missed.
Seriously considering this house, but the exterior curb appeal is minimal. I have absolutely no design sense here - but wondering if I should bring the original faux-tudor style back out with a contrasting dark paint for the beams? Or rip off the brick? Or add more brick? Is the problem the lawn? To my eye, everything looks stale. Or am I way off base? Help!
I have two USB ports upfront in my 2020 ES 350. Currently I use them to connect my phone to CarPlay. Are there any other creative uses for these ports such as uploading or downloading information or updating navigation or anything else that anyone has discovered?
With the advent of toll passes and coins no longer being used, I store my cleaning cloth for my sunglasses here. It’s a safe dry and easily accessible place. If you have one, what do you store in yours?
Sciorocco - Not sure of the year! I could do without the rear mudflaps. Beautiful!
