ive seen a few homers, there was one always parked in the street up the road from home.
they would make a handy truck.

the Homer would make a great tow vehicle for me as well. I have only seen 1 or 2 rough one down here in Tassie and both of them where loaded up with fire wood.

i own one!

A 1500? Naw, it's a 1600. We never got J15 trucks here in USA. The outside looks pretty much the same as an Aussie Datsun 1500 except the mirror is on the "other" side. Looks like a 1973 (small bumpers).

Dodgeman, I did notice that line on the door, it's just got me wondering now
Also none of the ones I have seen here have had a noticable red reflector/light at the bottom of the tray like that one. I will have to take a photo of the next one I see to compare them

EDIT saw your other pics Pete, it has US rego plates, so that could explain the different tray

thats a 520 i think were the 1300 69 modle or something like that my grandfather has one tho not it that colour or condition
Edit: its not 1300 actually later than that a 521 i think the line below the window sill, its a 1500?

I see a few of these on the coast here.
Is that the original tray, because the ones that I have seen, the body line that goes across the top of the door, continues over onto the tray? Whereas this one doesn't seem to have that, and also the bottom of the tray isn't the same height.

Note that the line through the lower part of the door does line up, & all of the Datsun Pickups that I have seen have the lower portion of the Pickup bed higher than the sills.
Did I say pickup? Oh yeah, that's because it's not a Ute, it really is a Pickup Truck, ... they're different.

I would love to have that parked in the shed. would make a great tow vehicle for the Cherry once I get it finished.

The ute might need a L20B put in it for the towing dutys though.

In the states that would be a 620 pickup with a L series motor.

It is a 620 -- mid-to-late 1970s. Looks like LHD, photo looks like america maybe somewhere in the southwest. It would be an L-series engine (L16 or L18?)

USA 620s didn't get a J15. They started with L16 from the beginning.

And it's not a real ute like a B120. Just an unsophisticated but reliable truck.

this would be the tub with te good looking body line

yeh, that looks the goods.
did we get those here?

My old man has a tray back one of this shape with an A series in it.

yeah we got them....never seen one with a tub
but there was one with a tray in the wreckers near me, had a j15 and an alloy carrier h190(now living with topgear)

Thanks pigdog, that's the same as what I have seen over here.

Thats a datsun 1500 ute as known here in australia, they came out with a j15 motor.

This is a cool looking 1500 ute. I think the black wheels really make this ute stand out.

i rather drive one of these then a 1200 ute there bloody sex
