This was known as Skyline on some other markets, and smaller engined and four-cylinder Sjyline models(this is a 4 door sedan) were available, the latter with shorter front panels (mostly the space between the front wheel and door openings).
The rising crease line over the rear wheel arch was a signature mark for Skylines.
A reverse angled daylight opening, combined with a true fastback roofline, formed a large triangular C pillar (and making a hellish blind spot!).

Aftermarket body protector strip visually breaks the slab sides but helps to obscure the arrow creaseline.
I suspect the C pillar medallion hides a fuel filler cap, note the drips on the paint work on this car!
