1969 Nissan Datsun Skyline 2000GTR JDM real deal original GTR GRANDADDY PGC10

1969 Nissan GT-R 2000 Description:

This is a rare and authentic first-generation GT-R Sedan powered by the race-derived S20, twin-cam, 24-valve straight-six. I bought this car and a 1970 Skyline 2000GTR Coupe (KPGC10) from Bingo Motorsports in 2014 and brought them to America. BingoMotorsports are one of Japan's leading Supercar and Exotic car dealers. At that same time, I already owned one PGC10, one KPGC10, two Z432s, one KPG10 and one 240ZG.

PGC10 000576 is the best S20 engined car and the best Nissan, that I've ever owned. I sold all of the other cars (including the first vintage Skyline to sell at a US auction, which went for $242,000) and kept this one for several more years,becauseit was the best and my favorite.
This car is the first generation and earliest version of a Skyline GTR. It's even early by PGC10 standards. Only the first very few cars had the squared grill on that long nose. Most PGC10's feature the grill with the diagonal lines, like the coupe which was to follow. Only 832 Nissan GTR sedans were built.

When I met the owner of Bingo Sports at Pebble Beach, he told me that this car was taken to the 1969 Tokyo Motor Show by Nissan Sports Corner, but I don’t have any proof of that. The car has certainly been modified and tuned and is an absolute revelation to drive. This car will change your life. It revs at 7500 rpms with that triple carbureted twin cam engine and just hugs the corners. There's nothing like it. MAYBE it can be compared to the 2.2 liter and up Porsches from the same time period.

GTR History
In April 1957, the first Skyline was introduced by the Prince Motor
Company and marketed as a luxury car in Japan. It was modestly powered
by four cylinders and had received aesthetic updates over the years,
including the rare Michellotti-styled Skyline Sport. The second
generation (S50) was launched in September 1963, and it was still very
much intended for the luxury segment in Japan.

Perceptions of the Prince Skyline would be radically altered with the
introduction of the S54 Skyline 2000GT in May 1964. As it was squarely
aimed at competing in the GT-II class at the second Japanese Grand
Prix, its wheelbase was duly extended by 20 centimeters in order to
accommodate the larger G7 six-cylinder engine over the modest
inline-four. The S54B 2000GT was developed by Prince engineer
Shin’ichiro Sakurai (Mr. Skyline), and it would dominate the Suzuka
Circuit that year, finishing second only to a Porsche 904 Carrera GTS.
After sweeping the 2nd through 6th places, and even briefly leading the
Porsche, the Skyline legend was born.

The third-generation Skyline (C10), nicknamed “Hakosuka” (pronounced
Hak-OH-skaa and loosely translated as Boxy Skyline), was introduced in
1968. It was originally conceived by Prince and was badged and marketed
by Nissan after the companies' merger. With the success of the first
2000GT, Nissan further developed the Skyline with the triple-carbureted
2000GT-X and, the ultimate iteration, the 2000GT-R.

The first GT-R was introduced as a four-door sedan (Type PGC10) when it
was launched in February 1969. It was powered by the race-derived S20
inline-six, which featured dual overhead camshafts, a cross-flow head
with four valves per cylinder, and a hemispherical combustion chamber
that was fed by triple dual-throat Mikuni-Solex side-draft carburetors.
A two-door coupe version (KPGC10) would later debut in October 1970.
Ultimately, only 832 GT-R Sedans were produced, making them exceedingly
rare, even compared to its two-door brethren.
