#datsun #revival #junkyarddigs
Thanks for watching!! Check out our merch at www.junkyarddigs.com/
Early Datsuns were in fact made from dog food cans! I have had 3 early 70's Datsun pick-ups! I would love to have another. I kick myself for selling them!
hay junk yard digs, is the gray 78 Datson for sale?
The 280 looks prime for a widebody transformation
How do you manage to get so many cars after all these years?
Is that a sunbird?!?!
The fact that you have two videos out this week means we get extra Junkyard Digs. Which is fantastic. Thank you Kevin.
Lmao captain obvious. Don't forget mooks video too
@@ericball6894 stfu and let people enjoy things
Puddins Fab shop could maybe use the engines and drive trains.
You're very good at math. One video plus one video equals two videos equals more junkyard digs.
You guys are welcome! I'mma take a nap now ....
To be fair, the most interesting car of those two, is the 200 SX - it's a rare beast. Lots and lots of the Datsun Z-series cars out there, but the 200 SX is like to find a diamond in a mud hole.
Its a shame he doesn't appreciate it...
@@seymoarsalvage Yep.
Exactly! And this one is in pretty nice shape. Not as rusted as 280 and any decent body shop should be able to fix that rear end.
My dad had a 200SX back in the day, it was the first non-American car he ever owned. He always talked highly of it, said it was much more refined than his 442 he drove through college. My mom totaled it during a Seattle winter rain storm 😆
@@basedWisco715 Even Paul Newman liked the car, and so much he built a racing car: " Paul Newman built and raced a 1977 Datsun 200SX in the 1978 IMSA Class C where it won 19 out of 22 races."
That 280Z has a well known problem with the AFM. The spring inside of it loses tension and no longer meters fuel correctly. If you carefully pop/cut the plastic cover off of it, take the spring out of the center of it and find a replacement for that spring. Once replaced, the car will produce up to an extra 30 hp than what it is doing now. I have a 77 280z that I purchased in 1985. It is still in my garage today.
Good to know!!
Wouldn't the parameters of that spring be critical to getting good A/F ratio? Coefficient (spring rate) and length being the two most important. If the coefficient is not right it might only be good at one particular airflow and lean or rich at other airflows
@@brainndamageyou are correct
I guess now we know why it’s in his garage😂
@@ishamhammer7320 _"I guess now we know why it’s in his garage"_ Where else would it be genius? Is it parked next to the Dodge Viper.
I’m a 57 yr old woman. My mom had a Datsun 200sx when I was a kid. That was the car I drove on when I got my license. I drove it all over town before I even got licenses too. This video seeing that car brought back a lot of memories. My mom hauled 3 kids around on that little 2 door car. Her car was 5 speed just like that. It was yellow with black interior.
That 200SX is in crazy good shape considering Iowa winters and salt. That's definitely a project you should keep and continue working on! So many auto shows have Z-cars, but very few have 200s.
Agreed also call me weird I prefer the way they look would love to make a resto mod out of this with a sr20 motor and wibebody for wider tires
Yeah they disintegrated. My neighbor had one just like it
Loved this video. This era Japanese cars were the ones that people realized were so much better than what the US brands offered. I had a 1976 Celica GT that I traded my 73 Vega GT on. What a difference!
Celica GT of that year we’re cool cars!
About the only negative thing about the Japanese cars of this time was the rust
OMG! Not only a revival video of an iconic Z car, but also an original Datsun 200SX! I had the exact same 200SX , a ‘77 5 speed in highly oxidized silver. It was my first car in the early 90’s. It was kept for 4 years and was super reliable after I rebuilt the car on the L20B motor. I remember scouring local thrift stores for 8 tracks to use in the dash mounted player….
Thank you Kevin, you’ve made my Friday.
Yeah I've own a mint silver 77 I got locally was a fun car only exception mine was 3 spd auto but ran and drove super nice.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hey Kevin, the transmission in that 200 is very valuable to those of us in the MG Midget owners community. Bet you could get more than 500 for it.
Ah, so that's where the Datsun 5 speed comes from. I've got a 62 Sprite, all original drivetrain.
Yep they have a dogleg 5 speed.
Thanks for the tip.
@@Mind-your-own-beeswax Sure thing....
That car SHOULD NOT be messed with. A guy just does not see a 200 every day.
Kev, the one thing I love about your channel is it's not just mainstream American cars you revive. It's the American orphan cars, Japanese and European cars as well. One car I love to see revived on your channel would be the AMC pacer wagon, maybe one day. Cheers to you and all your friends on the channel.
I felt genuine joy seeing those two cars, go from forgotten - running - and even ripping around again!
Man, you know how to start a video.
Also, this takes me back to high school. I had a Datsun 210, a buddy had a 200SX and another buddy drove a 260Z.
And, the 200SX was not the bottom of the line. It was one step below the Z as a “sporty” car. In 1978, the B210 was the low car on the totem. There were 310s, 510s and 810s (I think).
You are correct on the three model lines, the 210(Became the Sentra) the 510(Altima) and the 810(Maxima)
I was "given" a 1977 Datsun 810 wagon in 1984 by my parents as my 1st car - I believe it had the nearly indestructible 240z engine with a 4 speed overdrive automatic. It stayed in my family from 1979 to 1990ish. It handled like a boat but always started
The SX was a sporty variant. It looks pretty decent.
There was also a 280 z and 280 zx turbo and a 280 4 x 4 four seater but the rear seats were small like for kids .
They are almost impossible to find without rust . Metal was thin .
I'd say the 200SX is a keeper, looks very fun! And very simple since suspension wise is nothing out of this world, just leaf springs by the looks of it
Yeah that one looks like a sick little car. all the little features added too
I've had 2 of them both were 1977 good little cars L20B engine in them undesirable cylinder head but still a good engine that can be made better if you get a different head or leave it as is.
Also the front suspension is almost exactly like a first gen 510 so it easily be done up nice.
Nissans are good cars, I'd take the 280 myself
That little 200sx is really under rated. It is possibly the more fun of the two cars. I had one years ago and it was a complete hoot to throw it around on the roads
Man that 200SX is bringing back memories, My Aunt had a 76 Datsun B210 Honeybee she bought new while she was in the Navy and stationed in San Diego, when she got out she moved back home to Missouri to go to college then went back into Navy went to OCS and became an Officer and went to Pensacola, she drove that Datsun up until the time she had her 3rd kid in 1989 then she sold it, Hers was like a honey tan color with Black graphics and a big old Bee on the back of the front fender, it was a cool little car.
3 episodes in 1 week damn dude. love what you do
Wait ... There was 3? 😂
@@JunkyardDigseah ; the Van video, the Cougar video. Now this video within 6 days.
I'd suggest a vacation my guy lol
That 200 reminds me of a few other Datsuns from my past and I have a soft spot for the 200sx. I think that one might be a keeper to work on slowly because other than the bit of damage, she could be worth the work.
And extra JD content this week is always worth it!
I love the sound of the ford flatheads, they’re so unique and I never get tired of it.
This was fantastic. Great to see you guys restore these old barn find, that can be fixed back up and on the road.
Always a blast seeing those old barn finds come back to life. Like to see whats the next diamond in the rust.
Damn the second smaller Datsun looks in pretty cool
Congratulations on 1 million Kevin. Been subscribed since about 40k. The growth has been awesome. Keep up the great work.
👍
Been subscribed since 20k. I love this channel
I've been watching the channel since BEFORE Mook joined the fray!
Hey, Kevin! The 280 is WAY cool, but if you can get that 200sx in shape and running, you'll have a blast with it! Not long after my wife and I met in '84, we looked at an (I believe)'82 280zx. WOW, was that a sweet ride! She wound up not buying it, but to this day she talks about how much she regrets her choice! Have FUN with both of those! Great video, Brother!
Hope you and Mook have a GREAT weekend! Have an AWESOME 4th of July! God bless.
We had a wonderful time rebuilding our 280 Fairlady with not quite as much body work to do as you, the fun one and apparently almost always rust spot is in the hatch, mostly due to grime build up that sits and rust all on it's own. Our project was to re-engineer (not much though) a Skyline GT-R engine into the hole and make it run. Which was/is great and it passes smog ha ha. We've done similar things to some Silvia's too, We really need to do videos of our work.
When I was a young buck in the USAF, one of my bosses piled up in a bright orange 280Z.... blew us all away.
The 200 SX is the true find! Besides the rear end damage she looks great! They didn't make many of them so they may appreciate in value!
As soon as I saw the dashboard it brought back memories my brother had one in the day
Ironically, they actually sold very well in the US
Most of them have been lost to rust and to people cannibalizing them for parts for other cars such as 510s. Many of these 200 SX Met an untimely death, I'm sure most of them were mint.
It's kinda like what happened to the first generation infinity Q45
The bodies on those q45 cars were so well-made they almost didn't rust. Most of them were strip for their engines long before he died of anything else.
Like many others have said. 280 is cool but that 200SX is wayyy cooler nice find Kevin!
That 200 it was kind of like a Pontiac Aztec of its time.
It's kind of hilarious irony, seeing that 200sx look almost contemporary along modern vehicles over 45 years after it was built.
Takes me back. I owned a 200 in college, and my boyfriend had a 280Z and we were in LA - so much fun!!!!!!
@JunkyardDigs the Datsun 280z brings back memories. I had a 1976 Datsun 280z, first year with efi. It was a clean car from California. Sold it when I was younger, wouldn't mind a fixer upper. Keep up the great content.
I enjoyed this Datsun Duo Episode my wife found it entertaining and had a blast at all the Shinanagins appreciate the entertainment As always Kevin @Junkyard Digs
Hi Kevin
Those early Nissan / Datsun engines are basically bulletproof
Particularly the 280 z
They are legendary
Beautiful engineering!
Just a shame the body’s were built with old beer cans…
Rust like crazy
Cheers
It's really nice to see two Datsuns brought back to life. Ever since I found out about the 280z. I've been kind of wanting one.
As a Z owner every point that you pointed out on that 280 Z is exactly where the Z’s rust both of the rear quarters are gone, fenders (front) sometimes are gone, the doors yes, the bottom of the door the lower side that is rusted, the floor pans are gone so all the rust on that 280 Z is very common
Every panel on my ZX is gone lol
So the whole thing 😂
@@JunkyardDigs id buy the hood from you lol mines got an LS in it!
@@JunkyardDigs Pretty much haha I’ll be restoring it on my channel soon😉
@@JunkyardDigs Kevin swap the manual trans into your clean 260z that car is nice. I’m happy that you kept it all these years. Your car collection “hoard” has to be giant lol. But I also have suffer from the buyalot gearhead syndrome. A few days ago a friend says “Hey I saw your old Trans Am from high school driving around town” I replied “yeah that was me driving it”. Friend replies “It looks great I can’t believe you still have that thing so how many cars do have now?” I then quickly changed the subject.😂
What a gorgeous old rust bucket! :) Nicely done Kevin! Awesome to see Jesse return! And Mook, watch out for those killer garden hoses!
Highly entertaining. I have to say you're brave to have your truck connected to the trailer still. One word FIRE. Absolute blast to see you drifting in that little car! Amazing that they had the clutch master cylinder in stock. It must fit a BUNCH of cars.
Yep pretty much every single Nissan manual transmission vehicle since probably the late 1950s and up to like at least 2010 or so uses the same three-quarter inch bore clutch master cylinder and a 5/8 inch bore slave. In fact, up to about 1979 or so they use the same Bendix bolt pattern..
Those early Datsuns, Wilwood master cylinder, will bolt right on, and even the later ones, with a slightly different bolt pattern are close enough that they aftermarket manufactures, simply make a larger base and they just drill appropriate bolt holes for the specific vehicle application.
Nissan basically built their brake systems under license from Bendix and it stuck.
even today Nissan hydraulic systems use standard bore sizes rather than metric.
Another episode? I could never! Props to you for pumping out content so much! One of my favorite youtubers that genuinely puts effort into their videos. Props to you again!
Thank you!! Plus a Mook and PBG roadtrip this week, been a good one!
the regular uploads are really making my week. thanks for all the hard work you and mook put in.
Interior on the 200sx is awesome, plus seems like it would be fun if it were in better shape.
That car is actually in pretty good shape, the damage to the rear doesn't seem too bad to repair
😂 your business is a good idea and let me tell you what I think. You and Mook are going to have a great time together with the world you 've got going..We wish you all the best. Thanks
I used to think Mad Max was totally unrealistic, no way could they still have running cars after so many years without a supply chain. But seeing you get those two cars running so quickly after decades sitting idle, I’m totally blown away. Your skills are truly amazing!
Had a slew of 280Z's, the '75's and some '76's were chock full of German made Bosch components (Later used Hitachi production) for the L-Jetronic injection.
In good tune they were a blisteringly quick car with absurdly good handling. Many I assume got neglected because the early FI systems were more than a bit alien to those used to working on carbs, but if you took time to read up on the L-Jetronic, it was amazingly simple and easy to keep running. I wish I still had some of the ones I hooned up back in the 80's and 90's when they were cheap, but Michigan auto cancer eventually consumed them all.
yes finally a datsun! i am doing my own restoration and have watched a bunch of your videos to learn how to do it. very excited for you!
Love how these look, never knew how well they were made, but usually they were quality cars and these days can cost quite a lot. I just heard that the cars "made In Japan'' before mid 90s or later followed a different principle. They would last longer. My MX-6 1993 back in the day would look better than a Mazda 3 which was rusted out so that the rust was all over the place. So no wonder this thing is in good condition. Although the MX-6 did suffer rust in the end, it was not as bad as on the newer cars which are meant for their life span of 7 to who knows how many years. Probably due to the idea that you want to upgrade to newer standards and what not.
Japan is about making sure the engine last first then go for looks with the rest of the budget, I have a 97 Camry and at 150k miles its barely broke in.
@@David_Quinn_Photographyah yes, the 97 Camry, perfect example of blowing the budget on looks
Nissan are always well made
The lil 200 is becoming* a valuable car these days. People are shooting each other in the neck to get at the vintage 70s Jap cars these days. It’s unfortunate she was rear ended. BUT maybe with some pulling and straightening she would fix up! Investigate this car Kevin. You will see what ITalkin bout! Awesome content!
Wheelbarrowing kitties..
Those orange ones can be feisty! 😅
Nice score! Those Datsuns are sweet. 😎🍻🤙
Damn Kevin, back at it with the White Datsun! My first car was a 78n280z. Love these cars. I'm in the process of restomodding a 69 Datsun 510, 2 door. Always fun to see these things get revived.
Kevin!! Love your videos! But a guy I know would be disappointed in a feller using break clean to fire it up instead of old lawnmower gas with some 2 stroke in it haha. Keep up the great work! Hope the beans are growing good. Cheers from Canada
He sure would. It kills the seals in carbs and washes all the lubrication off of the top rings. Probably the harshest thing one can do to an engine that's been sitting.
Truly would love to see the 260 fixed up right, the rarity alone is amazing on that car and it deserves to be back on the road. Keep up the great content Kevin and the who junkyard universe
congrats on 1 mil kevin! you have inspired me to work on some old projects and i thank you for that.
Back in 1985, my dad let me drive a Navy Blue 1979 Datsun B810 coupe to high school. It had the 240Z straight six engine in it, which made it pretty quick for its day. I really enjoyed that car.
I grew up with a few Datsun's in my early years...the first and most memorable was my dad's new 260Z, copper metallic with black interior. What a car!
@JunkyardDigs, here's an idea: use the 280Z as a parts car for the 260 that you already have. Either run the L28 with the stock L-Jetronic FI, or use that as a base for a standalone EFI, like Megasquirt or Microsquirt. That way, you'll have the full 170 hp in the 260 body, plus you can then use any Windows-based notebook to tune the engine for the best performance and economy possible.
Thank you Kevin 2 videos in one week is a real special treat. This was an interesting video I wasn't sure if you could get those two cars actually running
2 releases in a couple days? I love ‘em but y’all might want to save some for a rainy day!
it rained today so watch
We complaining about too much good content now? 🤨
I’ll take as many as he wants to put out
@@jagfanbbhell no! I just figure it takes a good bit of time to sit and edit, so it’s more thinking save some so they’ve got a buffer later on if they wanna take some extra time to relax. I’m no TH-camr though so if I’m wrong about the workload then I’m wrong, I’ll watch it either way
@@Bender_B._Rodriguez I wish 😆 no rain here
Love the datsun content, I'd love to give them both a home .❤
Im not even a car guy nor do i have any knowledge about cars but i love these videos. I would give anything to have the knowledge that old fella has
I really enjoy the stories and the owners it is nice to see people passionate about vehicles.
AWESOME!!! I bet a lot of us have memories of old Toyota, Mitsubishi, and Datsun cars that were famously indestructible. What a great find and that guy was cool as hell. Sad shame they don't make cars anymore that will survive an apocalypse like these.
Literally one of my dream cars I love seeing that it’s drivable after all this time
The 240z was a beast, I ran one without even a cooling fan for 5 years, I ran with 140lb of sandbags over the back axle. it would drift going from 3rd to 4th at 90mph without even trying.the 260 and 280 were a poor attempt to cover the added weight of all the safety implentations required. Torquier, but less smooth power band. this wasn't fixed until the 300zx.
The 260 in this video sounded horrible.
Soo.... The Japanese went to the Germans and said we're going to build a car in a week what should we name it? The Germans replied dat soon? 😆
🌽🌽🌽 to say the least
Great vid. Two really interesting cars you rescued there. I hope someone does a resto or something on the 280Z. It deserves to be saved.
You have been blessing us this week with videos. Keep up the good work🤘
Cool video Kevin .
Quite like the 280Z lot of fun to drive especially when completely roadworthy .
Imagine sorting it out and having some decent modern tyres/tires on it .
Yes a nice project for someone.
With a modern wheel and tire combo those old Z cars can easily be daily driven.
The EFI when in good order and tuned properly makes them start like modern car.
Couple that with a light clutch and positive shifter, and simple, robust mechanicals, they are a treat. I had one when i was in tbe Navy, it was my daily driver, and i drove it like i stole it. Just about the only way you can kill one of these cars is to intentionally try to kill it by running it without oil... and even then it would probably run for a decent long time before it stopped.
The only way for these cars to die a natural death was rust. This video is living proof of that the reason his car was parked was because it was so rusty not because it didn't run.
They pretty much drive like a 1990s or even early 2000s car.
Only issue with modern rubber is they become a bit heavy steering when parking, these cars are portly beer cans, about 2800-3200 lbs at the curb for the 280z depending on model and options.
The AC system in a 280z was the equal of a GM system of that era (or in other words quite good)
I've always liked the 200SX. Many think they are odd looking, but to me, they were among the last of the nicely styled Japanese cars before they went with way too many scoops, slats, and spoilers.
In South Africa people love these old Datsun/Nissan cars and pick-up's. I personally still daily drive a 86 Nissan 1400 pick-up and they never die. Especially the carbureted ones.
The Nissan 1400 pickup's got the nickname champ, because of their reliability, that later got adopted as the official name for the pickups and they were manufactured from the 1971 until 2008 until emissions regulations ended their long stading pillar of the South African most beloved pickup.
Over 275, 000 of these pick-ups were build in South Africa and even till today 2024 you still see these pick-ups being driven on a dayly basis.
Rust buckets or not you can not deny the old Datsun's reliability. Forever Datsun will live on in our proud Datsun owners hearts.
My Dad had a '79 300zx. With the blade shade on the back windshield. That girl was a badass! He looooved that car! 😃
You definitely one of the coolest mechanics around
Hey Kevin, do you think when you run into some old timers like this that you could interview them and maybe make another channel with just old timer car stories? I would like to hear what they have to say about cars, their adventures, history and stuff...
Another episode?! Damn man just cranking out the killer content. 🤘
You have the best videos !! I love that you go after everything with the automobile
One of my favorite episodes of all time! Can't wait to see you swap the manual out of this ratty Z into your good one.
I still can’t believe Kevin bought those huge pliers for a joke and they’ve actually came in handy multiple times 😂
I once found a massive pair of mole grips at the scrap yard. Have been used loads for things they probably shouldn't.
That is a pretty sweet deal. Yeah 500 was probably too much for the smaller one, but was it really? Those were like the beginning of the Japanese economy car movement here in the States. They really are a part of hour history, be it good or bad, we now rely on Nissan Toyota and Honda as 3 of our MAJOR importers today! Neat and surprisingly easy to get them both running
These are Nissan cars 😂
Dude you're tearing up your front yard
When you started the 200SX, my high school car, the memories came racing back into my mind. Thank you!
Love the original Z's
I have a photographic memory.. One of my cousins on the wealthy side of my family had a first-year '70 240 in Orange, and the image of it, brand new, factory fresh, and pristine is still vivid in my mind, as are the experiences of riding in it.. the longest being a four hour drive each way to their vacation house.... And he always drove it like he stole it... FUN TIMES.. Truly a Breathtaking car for it's time..
My mom had a Datsun IIRC 240 that made both of these cars look good by comparison.
That warning buzzer brings back MEMORIES.
Thumbs up to a guy willing to drift in his own yard for content - thanks for the fun.
Very cool rig with the 280Z, looks like a Fairlady Z with the different back windows and rear seat.
Had an '80 model regular 280ZX myself in mid-'80's, bought it for a good price and replaced a vacuum advance unit on it, car used to return me 28 mpg on the highway. It had some very minor rust issues around the windshield trim area, otherwise perfect body on it. It was unfortunately stolen a couple years later from my 1st wife's work.
Great video, thank you Kevin!
Love watching older people enjoying cars from when they were younger.
3 episodes in 1 week damn dude. love what you do. 3 episodes in 1 week damn dude. love what you do.
Back in high school, my buddy and i fixed up a 1976 280z. Took us about 4 years to build up. That car was so much fun to drive!
I love this channel so much, it has great road trips, mechanical know how and genuine, funloving people!
I noticed this video, your camera is doing an amazing job. The quality is just amazing!
These are both AWESOME finds. Good job man. The 200 is even more desirable to me.
I have become addicted to this channel.
Oh yes congratulations on 1 million. I’ve been subscribing for the last 5 years or so
I love that 200sx!! It looks so fun and it sounds great!!!
Yeah, I love how the l20b has that cammy idle. it may only have had 100 hp to pull around 2300 pounds but boy it does sound good for a four cylinder
Well, THAT was fun! Two resurrections in one video, and what a cool old man! Fun vid! A+++++ (as usual)
Heck yeah! Any chance you want a rusty Datsun😂
@@JunkyardDigs I'll trade you a super nice 22hp Sears Craftsman riding mower for it! (Disclaimer: Mower will not run nor roll; was submerged underwater at the lake house for a good while....but the paint is NICE). 😮😮😮
@@OutontheRanchwithDrLee-xb4lo 😂😂😂
At 20:25 one of the best close ups ever on youtube.
Very cool & little different type of cars from your normal content! Great work as always 👍 much love from the U.K 🇬🇧
Cody has spoken. Time for Kevin and Mook to visit the Land Down Under. A hydration session is in order.
The sweet sound of that flattie is music to my ears!
New to the channel. Went to school and got my ASE cert about 5 years ago but they don't really teach much about the old school stuff at least not where I went. I have learned a few things watching you do your thing. Doubt I'll ever work on these older vehicles, but you never know. Hoping to see more Mopar.
Little tip
For ya Kev, from an old tow truck hand. Put a bottle of dish soap in your winch box on your trailer. Squirt a little in front of the stuck wheel and and it’ll slide that sucker on quicker than you can say “Robert is your fathers brother.”
The 200sx is really cool. The rear if it wasn't smashed looks real cyberpunk. The interior is also pretty futuristic.
Absolutely I love how they were so unique 47 years ago and coming into their own because they almost look like a modern car
The 240, 260, and 280 Z, ZX were all Japan's answer to The Jag XKE. I loved my 280 ZXwith T Tops. It was so cool!
Let's see these two rippn! Love the old Datsuns!
For the 1978, 280Z, the HP rating was 220 HP. This was the first year of fuel injection and the last year of the highest HP output for a NA car. In 1979, the power went to 150ish. I owned a 1978 briefly. I threw a cam in the motor, external oil cooler, and high volume oil pump, Cold Air intake, Headers and full 3" exhaust. That car would haul serious ass!!! Wish I never got rid of it. These cars bring in lots of value today.
I absolutely love that body style. My dad had a 360z when I was a kid, loved to go for rides in it.
30 plus years ago my father-in-law bought a used 200SX of that vintage and restored it. He drove it for several years and liked it a lot.
28:45 something about hearing that poor thing screaming while you're trying to get the motor to pump fuel just cracks me up
