   B110  4-door sedan
   B110R (2-door sedan)

  VB110  (van/wagon)
   B120  (truck/pickup aka ute or bakkie)

The 1200 coupe is the one with fastback styling.

Overview

Datsun 1200 coupe is implemented as a fastback body. It is not a hatchback. It has a small trunk (boot) lid, which opens directly into the passenger compartment.

Aggressive fastback styling, Italian influenced interior.
1200 Sports Coupe
  The 1200 Sports Coupe sneaks through city traffic, then streaks along the highway — all at up to 30 miles per gallon.
  Engineering basics include a high-cam engine and 4-speed stick shift. There's a fold-down back seat for storage. Safety front disc brakes, reclining front buckets, whitewall and deluxe wheel covers round out the package.

from: A Gallery of Datsun Originals brochure

Coupe was never available in STD trim, so it has the upper scale fitments such as round gauges.

Coupes take especially well to custom touches

In USA, coupe outsold 2-dr Sedan by more than two to one

  • 2-dr Coupe: 89,541
  • 2-dr Sedan: 43,761

So what's the difference between a 2-dr 'sedan' and a 2-dr 'coupe'?'

Material Differences

Coupe is same as all other 1200s from the cowl forward -- except for the Coupe Grille.

After of the firewall, all is different:

  • Windshield is lower
  • Doors are longer (matching the 2-door sedan), and folding seats are standard
  • Rear Seat folds down in order to lengthen cargo area
  • Fuel tank is under the trunk (sedan tank is behind seat)
  • Rear shocks are staggered for superior control (same as truck/van)
  • Taillights are long rectangle, somehow looking more timeless than the sedan versions
  • Rear bumper is unique (number plate fits under bumper)

In USA, coupes invariably came with GL-type hubcaps, though DX-type were optional.

Compared to Sedan

Aside from the fastback body style, the Coupe is different from the 2-door Sedan in many subtle ways, including these:

  • Shocks mounted at angle
    3772.jpgAlbum click to view
  • Sporty plastic Grille instead of formal stainless grille
  • Folding rear seat
  • Blackout side window trim
    1505.jpgAlbum click to view
  • B-pillar trim (Sedan has no trim)
    3259.jpgAlbum click to view 553.gifAlbum click to view 20095.jpgAlbum click to view
    Trim was painted black on all coupe along with black door window frames.
  • Coupes were not available in STD trim. Therefore, all coupes came with round gauge dash. STD sedans came with rectangular gauge dash
  • Coupe Seats: sporty. Sedan seats: plush
  • Doors have lower height in a coupe, windshield angle different. Uses a different windshied
  • Coupes came with GL Hubcaps, 2-dr sedans DX caps
  • Unique taillights
  • Rear license plate is below bumper, necessitating a unique bumper
  • Full interior door panels
