you say it was confirmed by ltsa? How do we do that? Cause then we can all just ring up and find out how many of each datto there is!
would be sweet to be able to do that, but somehow I doubt you can
u can ring them up and they will get u to write them a letter then they will post u the reply

yea except the emerican speck have the red indicator where as the two sets i have are from japan and they have orange indicators.they say bluebird on the centre garnish above the twin reverse lights with the B inbetween.
and as a matter of fact my 1975 datsun bluebirdu 2000gt (which i have 3 spare sets of tail lights)wasnt registered as a 180b like kane seid just as the nissan bluebirdu so i fought and won to have it changed by the LTSA.and i did find out there was the one but there was also a coupe but it got sold back to japan.

but i reckon the late 1960's datsun GTR is the rarest especually the one with the genuine yamaha made twin cam triple carby dry sump 2L engine,and then the earlier stuff of any datsun model not to mention all datsun 200L laurels and the 140j wagon the 2000GT 610s both b110 and b210 datsun rotary wich i have pictures of from the tokyo motorshow article,the datsun 200sx wich is ugly as fuck but cool because of that,and what about the 120A cherry coupe?i havnt seen one of those in ages only the one that used to be in pikakariki and this one in the barn in gisborne.so really u have to broaden your horizons guys all datsuns are rare now so put them in the garage and thrash a replaceable car that goes harder and uses less fuel or ur preciouse joy will rot and get sun damaged haha
