1981 Datsun 510, 4-speed stick shift, nearly new engine ( 4-cylinder )

The car has 175K miles, but...

 - Nissan factory rebuilt engine, under 16,000 miles
 - Clutch replaced same time as engine
 - Most of the ignition system replaced with engine
 - New front brake pads same time as engine

 - 4 new Michelin radials, only 2500 miles

The body and interior are in good shape.  The car gets 25-30 miles to the
gallon with our suburban driving habits.  It gets about 35 mpg if you drive
longer distances at 55-60 mph.  The 4-cyl (2-liter) engine has lots of power
at any speed.

There are relatively few little things wrong with it, especially for a car
that's twelve years old.  We have owned it for approximately half of its
total mileage, and we have all the service and mileage records since 1985.

We are asking $2650, approximately the cost of the new items above.  The
reason we're selling it is that we just bought a larger vehicle, and we
already have another economy car.  We expect the Datsun to last for many
years, which is why we put the new engine in it, but we just don't need
three cars at this point.

My work phone is 685-3436, our home phone is 692-4777.
