HI:<br>
All good comments.<br>
The year disparity might stem from the general practices of Datsun and Cali=
fornia registration back in the day:<br>
California registered vehicles according to the year sold. My !968 wa=
s registered as a 1969 because I bought it in 1969. Most Fairladys we=
re imported for the California market so the general year disparity could s=
tem from registration practices. Nissan (Datsun) was not consistent o=
n how cars were equipped. Some had marker lights and some did not (Da=
tsun was very concerned on the new (DOT) rules) the padded dash after 67 1/=
2 satin headlight surrounds and marker lights were all tied into the proble=
m. They were all equipped by boat load. I have always thought that th=
at we should call them =E2=80=9Cfrom the =E2=80=9Caki Maru=E2=80=9D arrival=
Long Beach November 1970=E2=80=9D.<br>
I would cut the owner some slack in the year designation but<br>
The paint is horrible<br>
Engine compartment is bad (a couple of hours cleanup could increase the val=
ue by 1000<br>
15,500 is clearly too much.<br>
How long has the rust prone car been in a beach community in Alabama (get o=
ne from Calif. Or Arizona).<br>
His rare padded dash is one of the plastic overlays on the same cracked das=
h we all have.<br>
Still nice to see<br>
Steve<br>
