Boy they don't call you Sherlock for nothin' eh?? I thought it might take a little longer than that!! They sure have come a long way since then! That was a 1954 Datsun De Luxe,
4cyl. 51.8 cu. in., 25 bhp L-head w/6.5:1 comp., 3 speed all-synchro tranny. It weighed 2033 lbs, had 6 volt elecs., had a top speed of 48 mph and got 28 mpg!! it cost $2600 in 1954! By comparison, a 1954 Chevy Bel Air sold for $2363.35 according to the same book (and it had a top speed of 87 mph)!

Almost as ugly as the 1979 Datsun 310GX I had when I was in college. Got it new!

It was really just a guess /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif I saw the right-hand-drive and it didn't look British so that was a start... Just had to narrow it down the company, and there weren't that many Japanese companies making cars back then... That's all, really...
