To clarify, Nissan photoshopped (or 60's equivalent) these photos?

Both cars have flat dashes!

I heard that they cut and pasted with big pictures. It was cheaper that doing another photoshoot.
I saw that they were flat dashes, but I didn't count that as a difference - only a mistake.

I didn't notice that it was only the driver door handle that was different. I will change my list to:
1. license plate
2. grill
3. wipers
4. windshield center support
5. mirror
6. windshield/vent height
7. 2000 emblem
8. driver door handle

The high windshield car looks like a low window stretched up and it has vent window handles. I can't see the vertical painted area that it is supposed to have.

Did 67.5 2000 have door mirrors?

I was also trying to figure out if there was something going on with the hood. They added shading or something.

OK. Here is another one. I see 7 differences between them.

THe High windshield also has the drivers side vent window open

That’s pretty impressive that they even redid the reflection in the hood.

They didn't even have Photoshop back then. I didn't even know there was more than one stock photo of this. Crazy cool.

I’m not sure if this one was mentioned... but my #9 was the shading on the hood is different. One picture shows a white/bright reflection while the other has a black/dark reflection... this is the one I was not sure if it counted or not - but when you blow up the pictures it is very noticeable.

I didn't catch the change in the hood reflection for the sun visor and mirror. But since it is part of the sun visor and mirror change, I didn't add it to the list.
Here is my list for the second set:

1. wipers
2. windshield center support
3. mirror
4. windshield/vent height
5. sun visor
6. vent window latch
7. vent window open

Great change-of-pace post, Steve!

But, no one noticed the switch from Koito to Toshiba headlights?? (TIC)
