So it's reasonable to say then that neither Nissan Australia nor anybody else produced 100 Datsun 1200 cars with either modified/widened body shells or narrowed chassis rails for the purpose of racing at Bathurst, remembering that several of our forum members were directly involved in the dealership & the race team that was, in effect, the Datsun Australia factory team during the years that the 1200 was campaigned.

It is possible that one or more Datsun 1200 cars with either a wide body or a narrowed chassis existed & was/were raced in some category or other, but were never supported by Nissan Australia in any form.

Would that be a fair summation?

The 1200 coupe that was in fact campaigned, & sourced as a factory prepped car from Japan, was it badged as a Sunny or as a Datsun?

Come to think of it, if somebody slipped another 4" of width into my 1200 coupe, I'm sure that SOMEBODY would notice it. I know i would. 4" is a lot in a little car like a 1200
