Looks similar to my ‘79 Honda Civic, almost same color too.

As I’ve said here before, late 1970’s I had to drive a guest to his private airplane one Sunday morning - he had rented a Datsun B210 Honeybee from the gas station next door

He was the owner of Sterling National Life

The doors on the B210 looked to be about 1.5 inches thick

It was like wearing (driving) a Coca-Cola can on wheels

I actually was not feeling too safe - it was about a 30-35 mile roundtrip - I was glad to get out of it

I had an 82 Datsun truck.

You could not break it. Even had a gas tank drain valve. Yep, had to use it.

Lost a belt in mid-summer on Maricopa Rd. Powered crank shaft. I moved it from water pump to crank shaft.

Pulled over every 1000yds as the temp gauge was hard red.

After 3 stops the water valve opened and Chandler here I come. the gauge started going back down after 3/4 hot.

Didn’t need the pump to get home.

That little truck had 3 belts. I needed 2. Yes it was 110 outside.
