Datsun 1200 came in two wagon forms: the 2-dr wagon and the 4-dr wagon. In some literature these were called 3-dr and 5-dr. In Japan both 2-dr and 4-dr wagons are called ????(van), hence the V- prefix in VB110.

Van = Wagon. The body code is VB110 (V for Van).

Notice:

• rear hanging straps
• rail inside rear window
• rear side glass "kick-up" from door glass
• straight Bumper with no light and no notch

Reportedly there was also a Datsun 1200 utility van (a wagon with no rear side windows aka "Sedan delivery", "delivery van" or "panel van"), but pictures of such have never appeared. There was however a B210 panel van:

More utilitarian two-door wagons were known as "sedan delivery" cars, often with solid panels where the rear side windows would be.

Commercial bodies seem to suffer from being knocked around more than passenger models, so finding a very good condition wagon is a bit more challenging than for a coupe or sedan.

2-door Wagon

aka 3-door wagon. These seem to have been sold mostly in Japan and New Zealand.

4-door Wagon

aka 5-door wagon

Wally's wagon

Racing Wagons

FJ-powered wagon

GX Wagon

Wagons never came in GX trim, but look good in it.

Style Exercises

The 1200 wagon has an ungainly sweep up on the rear side window. What would it look like without this?
