So now the ad could read
FOR SALE, Datsun 1000 Ute with original, factory installed CORVETTE "type" front suspension.

To be serious, the ONLY problem with the 1000's front end design was the price. MacPherson Struts do the job that is required of them, & they do it well at a significantly lower cost to manufacture. The total lack of any ability to perform a full wheel alignment was of no concern to the various manufacturers who accurately built bodyshells in precision jigs. New cars did not need wheel alignment.

So there you have it, a snappy little ute, with a current technology front end,... it's moderately rare, it's cute, it's practical, & has loads of development potential.
It's just looking for a new owner who has the vision to recognise the development & investment potential of what could be the next cult car. Well, it could be.

Out of curiosity, when you assert that the B10 does not have the same handling as MacPhersun strut equiped cars [i assume you mean that the handling is less] are you speaking from experience, or are you just making it up?
I drove my sedan for many many years, & a lot of bloody miles without ever encountering a problem as a result of suspension design. Ride quality was quite acceptable too.
