Welcome Andy,

Are you sure about the car being a '60? That's about 6 years too early! 
Check out the spotter's guide at 

http://www.datsun.org/roadster/info/modelguide/ 

and see if you can figure out what year you have - even the title may 
have the wrong year (this is common).

There is a lot of small differences between the years, so it helps to 
know exaclty what you have. Also where are you located?
