The quality of this picture is too low to determine the exact type of the Skyline GC10, but at least we can make out that it is the later type…
Nissan Skyline GC10 squat
In the background more late 60s/early 70s J-tin and judging from the clothes the picture is definitely taken somewhere in the early 70s…

GX61 stands for Victory
Not that his GX61 is ugly, but I would certainly not call it a WIN!
Suppose you are an American, work for the airforce and (of course) move to a base in Japan somewhere in 1979, what car would you drive then?
A Nissan Skyline C110 of course!
Long haired Nissan Skyline KGC110
This long blonde haired American owned a 1974 Nissan Skyline 2000 GTX complete with a set of periodically correct Hart Racing rims back in 1982.

Now this treasure is really puzzling: an landing stage the background backlit by the sundown, a (flash illuminated) white Fairlady Z 280ZX in the middle and a jumping guy in early 80s fashion in the foreground! What does it mean?
Fairlady Z 280ZX jump!
Does it mean the owner is really happy with his S130Z? Or rather with the background? We’ll never know…
The photographers eldest son is showing he is just as cool as his dad in the Yonmeri GC110 Skyline:
Family Album Treasure: Nissan Skyline GC110
Why did my dad never own a Yonmeri?? Well at least I hope my son will be as cool as this kid in the Carina! :P
[Found on Yahoo blogs]
BTW: I renamed the Shoebox gems to Family Album Treasures since that is fitting the category a bit better…
To prove that not all Nissan Laurel C130s were bosozoku styled during the 80s:
Nissan Laurel C130 with Enkei Baja wheels
With those Enkei Baja wheels and the Monroe air shocks all it needs is to be red and it would be the Japanese replica of the General Lee! :D
