It's not a
3D model, and not video game related.

No, unfortunately that's a lack of quality in the source image. It's not a ute.

Even closer! Not that though...
Datsun Fairlady proposal ?
In that case the mid-70s Datsun Sunny Coupe (120Y, aka Pulsar in some markets).

So it's not a derivative of an existing Datsun model, it has its own name ?

Nope, you guys just haven't found the right Datsun yet. :)
Does this Datsun have a proper name or rather a model number ?

I'm a bit confused as to what you deem to be a proper name and what you deem to be a model number?
Quote from: nicanary on April 13, 2015, 06:35:29 AM

Not a Stanza, nope.
A proper name would be "Bluebird" or "Auster", a model number would be "510" or "180B".

Oh right, well that would be giving too much away! Suffice to say it's not exactly obscure...

Rear window details are still puzzling, but could this be some form of Nissan Skyline mockup?

You are correct that this is a mockup, so details are certainly
very different than the finished product. Not Skyline.

Nope, I'm after the export market name for this car and it is anything but obscure.

Haha OK, how's this:
This is a one-fifth scale proposal for a Datsun. This particular model was clearly never chosen, the finished product retains very few - if any - details shown in the model.
The final product reached production, in a big way, and was a popular Datsun. I'm only accepting a single variation of the name, as that's the way it appeared in the source material.
Datsun Sunny B110 (aka 1200) ?
Datsun 620 Pickup?
Was the finished product for sale between 1970 and 1975 ?

As in the first page of the thread, the picture quality unfortunately makes it look like a pickup but it's not.

Other clay models that are much closer to the final product. Of course DHoffmann chose the most deceptive one for his puzzle ;D

Wouldn't be a challenge if I didn't! :D
Never would have guessed a ZX evolved from that lump of clay -- obviously!
Grateful it's solved :thumbsup:
