Like 24 or something crazy like that.
If it's got tectyl in all the nooks and crannies then odds are it is. That shit seeps out forever. But it saves the poor old water solouble datsuns for their enevitable fate.

Close mate, you will notice the number plate is 1 number different though.
Lendich Construction had about 30 of these from brand new apparently.
Supposably rumor has it that back in the day if you bought a brand new Nissan truck it came with a free Roadstar ute on the back!
How cool is that!
Lendich did the checker plate tray on them all and sprayed them all with tacky rust proof that ran everywhere(which many guys later had the hard job of removing) but would have saved lot of them from the dreaded Rust bug.
