Datsun Laurel coupe front quarter
This is also a 130 series, I suspect the additional lights are aftermarket ?
Datsun Laurel coupe front quarter
This is the 230 series from 1977.
Also now available in the four door hardtop model shown below (regular four door
sedan is still available), this new body type would ultimately displace the 2
door hardtops.
The same process applied to numerous models from Nissan as well as other
Japanese manufacturers.

Datsun Laurel dashboard
During the 230 series the design was facelifted perhaps in 1979 or '80?
Quad square headlights became fashionable due to their legalisation in the US in
the mid '70s.

Nissan Laurel 4 door hardtop sedan
Closely related to the new Leopard sedan front,
rear
and coupe front,
the latter appropriating the Laurel's coupe? Also a possible facelifted model front,
rear,
dash
& interior (thanks again to Nigel Gates for these pics).
