Did you check out Greg's model guide?

http://www.datsun.org/roadster/info/modelguide/default.html

or the Rallye site?

Identifying your roadster

year your car really is

The tail light's are given the year of manufacture, so '67 is not out of 
the question. They are often replaced, as well.

Do you have a flat dash? '65-67.5. Or a curved dash? '68 - '70.

Let us know what you find!
