There should be identification under the hood on the firewall. The VIN number should be engraved on the firewall and usually starts with B120....

The year should be on the manufacturer's build plate also on the firewall

I don't have the plate is missing but somebody told me the on the factory tail light will say the year also,

Its not a 1967 model, being a B120, which were built starting in 1970. With the steel grill, it's probably an early 70's model. Is the distributor at the front of the engine or next to number 3 cylinder? The front distributor A12 was made between 1971-1973, with 1973 onwards engines having the rearwards distributor. I'd try putting the VIN number in a search engine & see what entries you get. I always do that if I have a problem with other thngs, like how to multi-region a DVD player, or the last one was a Nissan part number for a H150 ring & pinion that I wanted to find the gear ratio for. This was for sale for about $50 on Ebay. I then found other sites in Russia where I could supposedly get a brand new 3.7:1 ring & pinion.

The first B120 came off the assembly line February 1971.

Thanks Dave, Ive gone back & edited that out, so I don't look too ignorant. I notice it's a right hand drive, so surely there's some paperwork to do with the importation of this vehicle. Maybe the build year is on that paperwork.

I don't have any of those documents I just have the California title

No worries. Non-plastic grille and black interior were used 1971 to early 1978.

The are no appreciable differences in these years. Taillights should be the same all years.

The distributor is on cylinder one
