I have to agree with Victor.  Back in the early 80's I had a rather snotty 
parts guy look down his nose and tell me that Datsun never made a 
convertible.  I got indignant and pointed out the door and said "Then what 
the hell did I drive up in??"  He choked down a bit and then proceded to 
help me.  He thought that he knew all of the Datsun products, but he did not 
look back past the Z.  (He commented that the Z was the first sports car 
that Datsun made as well - hence my strong language!  Sorry ladies)
