Datsun 1600

datto in original condition The "datto" was purchased in August 2004 by PB Motorsport.

It wasn't much to look at as the colours it was painted (blue and orange) were an eyesore and the damage down the driver's side made it look like the last round it had entered was a demolition derby. The datto (aka "wags" due to its tendency to wag the tail around in corners) is actually a CAMS log booked 3J improved production car.

PB Motorsport had the damage repaired, flared guards added, and the car repainted in PB Motorsport colours.

The end result can be seen in the second photo.
