Datsun Bluebird Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1976–1981) — First Generation
When considering a first-generation Datsun Bluebird Coupe or Sedan, think about how you plan to use it. Mechanical condition and comfort behind the wheel should help guide your choice.
The Datsun Bluebird’s 1.8 MT Coupe and Sedan pair a gasoline engine with a manual transmission and rear-wheel drive. You choose when to change gears, so check that the clutch engages progressively and the gearbox shifts cleanly; wear in either can affect everyday driving.
