Hi 370Zsteve:
With all due respect - Mr. Shiro is the Yoshihiko Matsuo of his generation. {not so much the Mr. K of his generation} Yoshihiko Matsuo was the Chief Of Design, Sports Car Styling Studio, Nissan Motors Ltd. from 1965 though 1973. Mr. Matsuo designed {styled} the Datsun 240Z. I have had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Nakamura and speaking with him briefly on a couple of occasions. What he and Mr. K do have in common - is the fact that they both had a good understanding of American expectations and uses for their automobiles. FWIW, Carl B. |
