Some cool Nissan/Datsuns there, a mate back in my teens had the 240k which stuck to the road well.
Anywho, my restoration back in 1999 was this '67 if memory serves, 260C H330 series which had a slight flair and nicer profile in the panel lines, unlike the squarer H660 series.
Lot of rust, sagged susspension and the 5th cylinder kept shattering ring due to a warped bore, the block is same as the 280 engines so was able to bore it out 100 thou, which resulted in a 2.95 Litre engine (inline 6) oversized all intake and exhaust ports, reballanced crank and cams and ballanced the new conrods and pistons, re-jetted the carb and fitted custom made Hurricane extractors and an extra 1/2 inch diam exhaust system with 2 x 9inch hot-dogs and a seathrough muffler, sounded chunky and gurgled during decompressions, but by no means a fast car, more a show-pony. interior redesigned reupholstered etc and a rocken sound system. bla bla bling..
