1977 Datsun 620

Manual five speed transmission, bias ply tires, drum brakes all around. Lots of fun.

Mine was bent in half where box meets the cab after being rear-ended on the Trans-Canada Highway going up Johnson Hill East bound just after the Port Mann Bridge.

I was stalled out on the shoulder wanting to look under the hood as I watched traffic in the side view mirror. Every car coming up in heavy traffic signaled and changed lanes to go around except for one. A giant white Oldsmobile Delta Eighty-Eight. It was a good thing I never got out of the truck because it flew forward a good twenty-feet and was left literally bent in half from the impact.
