Hi there,

i have a 1977 180b sss model p810 coupe.
what has happend,on the rego sticker it says ( 77 datsun kp810 )
i sent an email too ltnz requesting to update their records but they need confirmation from a carclub or dealer or manufacturer.
my case officer did sent me an email if anyone can help me out here i can forward that email.
also is there anyway i can correctly identify my car if its a genuine sss.
actually i cant understand from where they got the alphabet ( k ) from.i guess its an typing error in those days.
your help will be highly appreciated.

cheers

k is the letter they used for coupe I believe, it's correct.

hi guys,

thanks for the info.
i didnt know k was used for coupes.
so it should be registered as ( 1977 datsun kp810 sss ).but it may not fit in rego slip i guess or will it.
does anyone know what kinda rego slip they used on 1970's...

cheers

I think they used a lion brown label in the 70s :lol:
My cousin went through dramas changing his datsun from a 180b to a bluebird gt. LTSA were hard to deal with but he had sales forms with all the chassis codes on it so after that he got what he wanted.

that should fit in on the rego sticker easy. alot of modern new cars have something along the lines of 2001 toyota corolla 1.8i auto 5 door
