*This
is actually a 65-67 as it is not drilled for the separate
"1600" and "2000" emblems that the 67 1/2s have. You'll
need to drill those holes if you are going to reinstall a
"1600" or "2000" emblem. The rear fenders overlap the
rear center panel on the ends.
When
Nissan stored these they were just stacked and jammed in
a wooden crate. The latch bracket on the reverse side
pushed on the panel below it making the impression in the
lower part of the area behind the license plate. Almost
all of the panels have this to some degree. Although they
are all about the same we have decided to photo each one
and list each one individually.
Using
on a 68-70 or 63-64. Rear Center Panels vary
by the angle of the license plate area. Later (68-70)
cars had this area modified so license plate was mounted
more vertically. The 69 and 70 panels have the two
license light holes in them. The panel for the 63-64 has
no provision to mount a trunk lock since those cars had
the lock in the trunk handle. In some cases, on 65-67 vs
67 1/2's the emblem holes may be different. Otherwise,
any panel can be FORCED to work. It is actually quite
common to see this and other "mistakes" on cars, up to
and including mismatched rear flares as in the old days
when a car was hit, a body shop would just call up a
wrecking yard and get a fender, or the Datsun dealer
would order the wrong one. (The Nissan parts book is
somewhat of a disaster sometimes as to what's what)
Apparently no one noticed that the one they were getting
was different.
