Got an early Datsun 1500 magazine ad. Must be from '63 or '64.
take a look at http://www.shiftco.com/pdf/package_deal.pdf
"$2,465 Package Deal
(only the girl is optional)
DATSUN
Who else gives you roll up windows; jump seat for adult passenger;
tonneau cover; plush pile carpet; tachometer; twin carbs; competition
proved 1500 c.c. OHV engine? Who else offers this and more for less than
hundreds of extra dollars? See your nearest dealer or write: DATSUN, 221
FREYLINGHUYSEN AVENUE, NEWARK 14, N.J."
Does anyone know who the ad agency was for Nissan in the 60's? I seem to
remember it being a small agency in the LA area, Long Beach maybe?
The other side has an ad for the Triumph Spitfire - "You'd act sassy,
too..... if your name was Spitfire."
"You'll pay a lot more than $2199 before you find another sports car with
roll-up windows, disc brakes, and all around independent suspension."
Wonder how much extra the heater was? ;)
