Mazda B 1600 Pick-Up - 493
"The basic 'cooking' version of the Mazda B1600 Pickup - there are a number of versions and model numbers for this truck. There are big-wheel off-roaders, one with the Incredible Hulk in the back, a fire escape and many others.
This was the original upon which the others were based and it was produced from 1975 to 1978 under model number 493; which was always metallic blue with lower sides in silver or white."

Mazda B-Series
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The Mazda B-Series is a pickup truck that was first manufactured in 1961 by Mazda.
Since the launch of the B-Series, Mazda has used the engine displacement to determine each model's name; the B1500 had a 1.5 L engine and the B2600 had a 2.6 L engine.
In Japan, the name Mazda Proceed was used for the compact pickup.
Other names used for this line include Mazda Bravo (Australia), Mazda Bounty (New Zealand), Mazda Magnum/Thunder/Fighter (Thailand), and Mazda Drifter (South Africa).
Mazda's partnership with Ford resulted in both companies selling this vehicle under different names; Ford called its version the Ford Courier, and later the Ford Ranger. The Mazda B-Series and Ford Ranger models sold in North America were developed by Ford, whereas models sold elsewhere under the same badge were engineered by Mazda."

- First generation (1961–1965)
(...)
- Second generation (1965–1977)
"The 1966 B1500/Proceed presented in October 1965 used the same 1,484 cc OHV I4 engine as its predecessor, with minor changes to the cylinder head and valves and the use of a downdraft carburetor instead of the sidedraft unit used on the models sold between 1961 and 1965.
The UA engine now produced 53 kW (71 hp; 72 PS) at 5200 rpm.
The chassis was now called the "BUD61"; it was longer than its predecessor and received new bodywork of a squarer design, and four headlights.
In January 1971, a 1600 cc model with the chassis code BNA61 was introduced. This had 70 kW (94 hp; 95 PS) SAE in global markets; US brochures did not specify its power output and European importers claimed 55 kW (74 hp; 75 PS) DIN. In Japan, a minimum 74 kW (99 hp; 101 PS) (SAE gross) was claimed; the model was advertised in Japan as the "GT-Truck".
(...)
"The B-Series was introduced to the United States with the 1972 B1600.
In 1974, the similar rotary-powered Rotary Pickup was released in the US.
The engine was enlarged to 1.8-liters for 1975's B1800, a model that had been available to Canadian customers since around 1970. It was known in the Japanese market as the "Proceed", where it was also sold as the Ford Courier. Its strong sales in the US market—mostly with Ford badging—relieved Mazda's pressing cash flow troubles in the period following the 1970s energy crisis.
Engines:
1972-1975 – 1.3 L (1,272 cc) TC I4 (BTA67)
1965-1971 – 1.5 L (1,484 cc) UA OHV I4 (BUD61)
1971–1976 – 1.6 L (1,586 cc) NA I4 (BNA61), 95 PS (70 kW) SAE at 6000 rpm
1970–1977 – 1.8 L (1,796 cc) VB I4 (BVD61), 98 hp (73 kW) SAE at 5500 rpm (1970, Canada)
1974–1977 – 1.3 L (654 cc x 2) 13B (PA136/SPA136)
