Putting this up on behalf of my old man - it's one of his pride and joys (amongst an NA Mazda MX-5 and late model Mazda 6). He purchased it back in the early 90's from the original owner - having known the car from new and witnessed the first time it was returned home. He was suitably knocked out by the looks of it back then 1974 and jumped at the chance of buying it when it became available all those years later.
It was left pretty much as purchased and maintained for many years fitting a nudge bar and some tiny Cheviot five-spoke wheels. A more recent rust removal (early 2000s) had the a previously fitted duck egg blue (originally brown) vinyl roof removed and the car resprayed in a period correct 1975 Datsun Cream.
We've no idea how many times the odometer has been around the clock (it's only a 5-digit one), but given it's age we'd probably put it somewhere around 450,000-500,000km mark.
It still has the original owners manual, log books and purchase receipt and Dad continues to have it serviced regularly.
