That white Knotchback on your FB is nice ride. Looks like a later Type III. I didn't know that VW built the Knotch in the later body with the higher front hood line. I've always lusted after an early Type III Knotch Variant with sunroof. Owned fastbacks and squarebacks, but never a Knotch.

 

Welcome to the world of Datsuns & Ratsun. You have some very neat Datsuns down under. Mid-60's Nissan Silvia is at top of my Christmas list.

Yeah thats why I said an "extra one"  ;)  I've got a mate that's a light fabricator, If I can't find one might get him to help me make one and use a repro tailgate.
