[002doc]

Hi team, wondering if anyone knows anything about the 60th Anniversary R32's that came out in 1993?

I think I have one, ie I have the same stuff as the catalouge like 60th ann key, super fine coating etc

Anyone know anything else?

Cheers

I thought 40th anniversary cars were R33 GTS25ts that were produced in 97/98?

... however I'd happily be corrected!

my 98 R33 GTS-T is a 40th anniv. so i dont see how r32 can be 60th....

Im referring to the 60th anniversary nissan version, I think there is also a 40 anniversary skyline.

The 60th anniversary nissan r32 is in original brochures.

In 1914, the Kwaishinsha Motorcar Works, established three years earlier, in Azabu-Hiroo District in Tokyo, built the first DAT. The new car's name being the acronym of the company's partners' surnames:

* Kenjiro Den

* Rokuro Aoyama

* Meitaro Takeuchi

The Works was renamed to Kwaishinsha Motorcar Co. in 1918, and again, in 1925, to DAT Motorcar Co.

The next year, the Tokyo-based company merged with the Osaka-based Jitsuyo Jidosha Co., Ltd. (established 1919) as DAT Automobile Manufacturing Co. Ltd. in Osaka until 1932. In 1931, the first DATSON—meaning "Son of DAT"—was produced. However, the last syllable was changed to "sun", because "son" also means "loss" in Japanese, hence the name "Datsun".

In 1933, the company name was Nipponized to Jidosha-Seizo Co. Ltd. ("Automobile Manufacturing Co. Ltd.") and moved to Yokohama. In 1934, Jidosha-Seizo merged with a fellow Japanese automanufacturer named Nihon Sangyo Co. Ltd. ("Japan Industry Co. Ltd.") who was popularly known as "Ni-San."

The company became Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. on June 1, 1934, and was founded by Yoshisuke Aikawa.

Thanks Google

R32 60th Anniversary editions exist (see attachments). The 40th anniversary edition R33 models made in 1998 are probably to celebrate the 40th anniversary of skylines (not Nissan itself).

Hmm interesting but I guess there's nothing THAT notable about the 60th Anniv version.

The gold GT badges are tight though.

Yeah my r32 has 60th anniversary interior cloth, driving lights and spoiler - these were all options on the normal type-M!

Seems like its just a number of standard options banged together with a special key.
