Hi guy's fairly new member to this forum, and very new owner of a 4 door 1000.
Got very lucky with this car, it's been left well alone through it's life time. The only thing that I can tell thats not original is the mounting of the front number plate. She drive's beautifully, and has pretty good steel, just can't believe how good a nic she's in. This is my fiance's daily drive to work to.

 
We've had to do very little to this car since buying it, other then a whole lot of polishing, but she came up pretty good. Certainly got me sold on the 1000's
Cheers,
Rob

Pics look good Rob.
The second one looks as if it is out of a brocure.
 
It was great to see your 1000 at the car show on Sunday.

Hey Ash! Was awesome to meet you on the weekend, reminds me of what I used to love about owning a Datsun, it's the people involved as much as it is the cars.
Cheers,

Welcome Rob,
 
Looks like an amazing find!! So clean!!
 
Do you know its owner history? Is it the little old lady who only drove it to church deal?....
 
Makes me want to pull my finger out and get mine on the road!

I agree this is so clean, can't believe it's mostly original! I would love to get a set of original steelies and hubcaps for originality. Are the fog lights an original thing? I wouldn't have a clue!

Not sure if the fog lights are original. They could be, I have seen another pic of a 1000 with the sme lights in the same position. And the switch for them is like none I have ever seen before.
She's a very honest car I must say, but not as flawless as she looks in the pics. But this just seems to ad to the original feel, I wont be in a hurry to re paint her.
I believe I'm the 4th owner. The guy I bought it from just bought it and parked it, then sold it after about 4 months. The Nissan owners book then shows the original purchaser's name, and a second name that it was sold to while still under warranty.

Nice original car love the look of the sedans
I have been a long time member of the 1200 club but found this site. As I have a coupe this is where I should be.
