1970's U-series two-door, could be a 160U or a 180U. There was a proper "coupe" in the line-up as well, which had a different roofline. -- Last edit: 2007-11-18 21:56:30 |

FWIW, I do not see the white late-sixties Datsun 1500 pickup in the background listed? |

Valiant remarked elsewhere that this could be a Dodge Colt. I agree with him, and retract...  |

Next to the Volkswagen. |

Mitsubishi Colt, unsure of the marketing name in Sth Africa, but they were Dodge Colt in USA, and Mitsubishi Galant in Australia. This one is a rare two door, and by the Rostyle wheels, possibly a GT |

According to Wikipedia: "In South Africa, the A53 Colt Galant arrived in late 1972 as the Dodge Colt 1600 GS (AY series). The car had already been rallied there, in 1300 and 1600 forms, and only the Hardtop GS version was sold to capitalize on the car's sporty image. Gross power claimed was 97 PS (71 kW) at 6700 rpm and the car was fitted with Rostyle wheels as also used on locally assembled Hillman Vogues." |

I thought it was Colt as a brand like in the UK? |
