Datsun 320

The Datsun 320 was a light pickup truck built by Nissan under the Datsun brand, released in August 1961 and produced until 1965 in three series, the 320 to the 322. Its underpinnings were largely inherited from the earlier 120 and 220 trucks, with body panels and design language taken from the new 310 series Bluebird, and it used the 60 PS Nissan E-1 engine. Body styles included a single cab truck, a long wheelbase G320, a double cab U320 and a three door V320 van that was essentially a two door station wagon. A rarer N320 Sports Pick-Up, made in around 1,000 examples from 1963 to 1965, used a one piece cab and bed. Gearing was low enough that the 320 was not comfortable on freeways above 60 mph, and it was a best seller in its market segment.
