SEPTEMBER 2007  

The Datsun and Nissan 1600s of 1965

This Nissan advertisement, from late 1965, is a rare photo of the Datsun Fairlady 1600 (SP311) alongside the Nissan Silvia (CSP311) and the recently launched Datsun Bluebird 1600 SSS (R411). All shared the same dual Hitachi aspirated 1596cc engine but these cars were rarely advertised together.
