Name that emblem (What the heck Datsun was this from?)

[fisch]

A million internet points for whoever can tell me what this came from. I have googled it to no avail. I thought roadster at first, but couldn't find a match. It is 18" long.

 

That half circle cut out might be a clue? Like maybe it went around a trunk keyhole or something?

 

I bought it at an antique fair. It is plastic so I don't think it is thaaaat old.

 

Heh, my 510 has no badges and came with none. Thought about mounting this on the grill.
