      Thats a 720, probably a 1980 model year. Most markets (such as the USA) had rectangular headlights but the early 1979-1981 fleetline models had 4 round headlights. It's definitely a pre-1982 as it still has the L20b vs the Z20/22/24 that later models had.

      Basically theres no way to tell how many kms are on it, but seeing how long Datsuns lasted here in the USA; Murilee Martin did a photo essay of a 1980 210 (b310 chassis) that had 370,000 MILES (600k kms) on it. Beibg it looked showroom fresh compared to this pickup, it wouldn't surprise me if it has many millions of kilometers on it.
