1976 Datsun 260C (330 Series) Coupe

We rarely see the 260C coupes come up for sale, so haven't had much opportunity to write about these great looking cars. This nice example is currently advertised on Gumtree Australia, asking $25,000 (AUD), and from the limited images provided by the seller it appears to be in excellent condition. The seller also notes the car has stayed in the same family its entire life, is original inside and out, and has always been garaged. 

The 260C was the name applied to the export versions of Nissan's Cedric sedan and coupe, introduced in the third generation of the Cedric platform. We're unsure of precise production numbers or numbers imported to Australia, so it would be great to hear comments from anyone with further information on these cars.

If you have a rare 260C or another rare Datsun coupe, sign up and add your car to Classic Register so we can learn more about these interesting Japanese classics. Follow us on Facebook for more interesting cars found for sale around the world.
