Having worked at a Japanese language tv station in LA in the seventies, I developed an early appreciation of their commercials. Here are a couple of Datsun ads highlighting the Blubird/510. The first one parallels the flying theme of my CC, and the second one, after the jump, shows off the coupe version, which sadly was never exported to the US. Shades of the Volt dance. Enjoy!

Datsun’s Ad Agency: “I know what will sell this car; jet planes, just a wiff of sex, square jawed men, and lots of hands on manual shifter action!”
Look! A jet liner! Adjustable air vents! We’re in the space age now! Buy this car!!
I LOVE this and the music is particularly delightful.
I had a 1970 Datsun 510 4 door. What a great car to drive. One of my favorites along with 733i, alfetta gtv and rabbit gti.
number of Concordes still flying: 0
number of 510’s not overcome by rust and still running: 12+
Win to the 510, a great discount rally car.
Also, +1 to the Alfa Alfetta (mine was a Sports Sedan)
