350ash Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Do it Stan... If you say "Do it Stan" quick enough and with a funny accent it could almost sound like "Datsun". That seems like a sign to me - get one! Quote

JetSet Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Stan, that is one ugly mother definitely needs lowering (off a cliff ) This was the van, sorry coupe version these were pretty rare back in the day. Quote
stanski Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 You all secretly want one I know you do!! Jetset it has a certain weird charm in the same way that some French cars have .... I am trying to be nice but that's even a step too far for me. Looks like the 120y fastback ? Quote
JetSet Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Yeah, it's the 120A, they were sold here as Cherry Coupes. Definitely not Datsuns finest hour . Hardly sold any of them, which isn't a great surprise. Here's the rear end view. Pete Quote
stanski Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 Oops Pete no picture? We had friends with a yellow 120y and all I remember about it was the black plastic and vinyl interior and it had that plastic aroma too with squeaky seats when you moved about Quote
