The US had 3148 1500 imported from 62 - 65.  The first 300 were single  carb. 
 This seems to have the later model G series motor with the dual  carbs 
(which for the cold lander's is missing the choke cables).  VIN  number is 
indicated as 580, they started production at 175, so this would be a  late '63.
 
Interesting comment about shifting in and out of gear and no noises.   The 
1500 all had non-syncro'd first gear and is a double clutching intrigue to  
downshift while moving.
 
It is missing the chrome molding that ran front to rear on the  1500's.  The 
ragged top is not from the Fairlady, but they have the frame  sitting in the 
picture at the top.
 
Still a nice example of a Fairlady.  Hope it goes to a good home that  will 
keep it in good running shape.
