>From "The Ultimate Classic Car Book", by Quentin Wilson, regarding the
Datsun Fairlady 1600:
Styling: Rear view has echos of both the MGB and MG TC.
Engine: The simple four-cylinder engine had a cast iron block and aluminum
head breathing through twin Hitachi carburtors made under license from
SU in England.
Body Panels: In common with the MGB, the Fairlady had bolt-on removable
front fenders for easy repairs.
