Ford 5.0 V8 Swapped: 1981 Datsun 200SX

The trick to a good sleeper is to pick an uncommon vehicle…and make it look stock. A Volvo 240 wagon with huge slicks on the back isn’t a sleeper, its probably got a nitrous fed LS1 under the hood, but this next car looks like it should be old man driven…not that there is anything wrong with that. Old men need Ford 5.0 V8 with 5-speed manual swapped cars just like everyone else. Find this 1981 Datsun 200SX with Ford V8 offered for $8,500 in San Diego, CA via craigslist. Tip from Rock On!
