Version 1.0
My first car was a Datsun 1200 2-door Sedan, obtained November 1981. It was 10 years old and only had 49,000 miles. I put an additional 200,000 miles on that 1200.

I salvaged the Power Windows
Version 2.0
2002-2005 ... searching for a new 1200. I looked the Alderwood 1200 but thought it too rusty
I saw this local 1200 once but not again ...
I looked at Icehouse's 1200 but passed on it (Gary_P bought it and fixed it)
I wanted one nicer than this Olympia mobile
3-years of searching, found one in California, 800 miles away
at Mount Shastaᵂ
Finally at home in Washington State

I attended many of the Pacific Northwestᵂ shows.
