In the past, I've owned two 1500's. One was a 63 single carb (all matching
numbers) & a 65 two-seater with a modifed R Engine (but also kept the
original block). The 65 included all paperwork, including the original
certificate of warranty from Nissan.
Neither car sold for much money..........
Originally is great - I always look for a documented, original car.
But I don't think it makes much difference when it is time to sell your
1500.
