New classic 50's Japanese car for the game

    Changelog V3.0:
    -Added a new van body in windowed and panel versions. It rides on the 252cm wheelbase truck frame instead of the 222cm wheelbase standard frame.
    -New tires, rims and hubcaps modeled by me. All tires use now the same 3.5x15 rim and 5.60 tires are replaced with 5.50 ones
    -Improved shocks, adjusted the swaybars and lowered spring rates again for better roadholding and less bouncy ride.
    -Adjusted front wheel alignment to real specs found from the '59 Datsun owner's manual
    -Reduced front wheel wobble again, by a small amount. I tried to improve it further and came up with two new designs, but the original was still best of them. Maybe the front leaf springs are too close to each other and it creates some unstabile forces under hard braking, because when I disable the Lbeams, the wobbling stops.
    -Added a new 70hp 1471cc engine modeled after the Nissan J15 used in Euro-spec Datsun 620 trucks.
    -Added automatic transmissions -two-speed for the original engines, three speed for the 1471cc and 4-speed for the rotary engine.
    -Lowered engine "dynamicFriction" to reduce bogging at over 4000rpm.
    -Added two new drag configs with 1009hp wankel engine, 4-speed automatic and a new drag driveshaft.
    -Fixed speedometer bug with grippy drag tires and stage 3 turbo combo.
    -Fixed flickering gauge cluster glass.
    -Many small bugfixes I don't even remember:)
