W/NW - Classic Cars

Wow Mike! You have catched a multimillion dollars car! When I was a boy there was a 300SL next to my parents house. Ever since then I haven't seen another one.

Paul, this was the first 300SL that I've ever seen outside of a Motorcar Museum. It was parked in front of the Yokohama New Grand Hotel; a prestigious and historically significant (expensive) hotel in Yokohama. Why it was there I'll never know... why I happen to walk by while it was parked there... I'll never know. That's life!

All the best,
Mike
 
I'm pretty sure this is a Datsun SSS 410 Bluebird
Per Wikipedia: In September 1963, Nissan brought the Bluebird up-to-date with boxier styling (by Pininfarina),
resembling European designs, particularly the Lancia Fulvia. The 410 was built from 1964 to 1967.
