Just some thoughts on the countries I'd like to visit to see the Datsun 1200s. Maybe you have a different rating? Let's hear it.

10. Ecuador: Where Datsun 1200 trucks were made
9. El Salvador: Hot Datsun 1200 action
8. Costa Rica: South American 1200 Paradise
7. New Zealand: Land of the SSS and Sportstar/Roadstar
6. Japan: birthplace of the Datsun 1200
5. South Africa: the only place it is still made
4. United States: lots of 1200s, unfortunately far apart
3. Australia: so many 1200s still going strong
2. Portugal: home of the 2-dr Sedan
And the number 1 Datsun 1200 Country is ...

Somewhere in South America?

Is it Antartica? I think it is Antartica

We've heard this rumour every year that datsun1200.com has been around, and it has always proved false. But maybe this year?

Manchuria? You mean the Datsun 320, design circa 1963?

I just got back from Fiji this morning, In two days on the road, I saw about a dozen 1200 utes and sedans on the road. I saw even more 120y's, sunny's and 3 x 1600's. They were all a bit rough but in good working order, its great to see them in action. I was quite surprised, the coolest one I saw was a yellow 1200 which was being used as a taxi. I wanted to wave him down and take a ride in it, but he already had four burly fijian passengers.

Unfortunately I was too slow to get a picture of the yellow 1200 taxi as it went past. I did get some other pictures I've put some of them online..
