High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The A20-series Mitsubishi Colt 1000, 1100, 1200, and 1500 is a series of passenger cars produced by Shin Mitsubishi Heavy-Industries, Ltd, one of the companies which would become Mitsubishi Motors. Built from 1963 until 1970, they were available in four bodystyles (2-dr/4-dr sedan, 2-dr van, and 4-dr wagon) and on two different wheelbases. After a May 1968 facelift, they were marketed as the "New Colt". Along with the smaller, fastback Colts they formed the mainstay of Mitsubishi`s passenger car lineup in the 1960s. With the late 1969 introduction of the new Colt Galant, the outmoded Colt-series soon faded away.
