Wow is right, but the Black car with the "fins" looks like its a british made Austin Camebridge [aka the Morris Oxford it had a few optional names linked to specs] some say the japanese tore these apart to see where they could improve and make better some of the engine designs.
Did'nt they just.

GM has several of those (I interned at GM in college), all the way back to early 20th cetury race car's, the 1918 original V8, the 1950's Firebirds (gas turbines, drive with a joystick, lol), 1973 'Vette with a Mid-rotary engine... Lotta weird stuff, and some random stock stuff. It's pretty neat to see, I always said they should loan 'em to museum's or something..

Makes me remember my old Datsun 210...

They were Datsuns here too, it seemed they thought the "Nissan" name was just too japanese and would put people off , tho it does'nt seem to stop people buying them now.
While down memory lane, Mitsubushi were called "Colt" at that time, maybe for similar reasons, at least Honda, Suzuki, Mazda etc were all known as that, and still are.

yeah he's got a 6 foot wing with a maxwell house can muffler and a shifter that he cut with a hacksaw and a bunch of stickers from walmart. he said he uses charmin ultra (don't know how he gets it :dunno: ) he took out all the seats and just has a blanket laying down. but i still don't know how he fits in that thing?

They changed the name from DATSUN to NISSAN because DATSUN translated in to English means to lose money fast
