Hello Andrew,
 
Thanks for the info. I have seen those numbers as well.
But from 1000 or less to maybe 2000 is a big gap.
I cant believe that has not been verified.
Did they combined those SRL and SR in the 1000? or are there 2000??
I have read that some SRL and SR share the same VIN or Frame serial numbers.
Is that a widely know fact??
Now lets say that they just made 1000 or less  67.5 2liters. I am wondering if 
the serial numbers are sequential or there are gaps in the serial numbers.
Ive checked out the registry on datsun.org and 311s.org and they are both 
missing the same numbers from the registry list.
So does that mean that they didnt make those missing serial numbers??

Raul,


There has been some debate about the numbering of the 1967.5 2000. Some say 
that both LHD and RHD cars were numbered 1-1000- the only difference being 
SR instead of SRL. That would mean 2000 cars.

The other thought process is that the numbers 1-1000 were shared between the 
two. I have never heard of a definitive answer on the subject.

The highest number I have ever heard of is 701 which is David Pina's racer 
and the gaps in the registry are probably due to either cars that are 
unknown or those that have long gone to soup cans.

If anyone out there has the answer I would be interested to hear it.
