These are the last of the MIJs before the manufacturing was moved "offshore".
This serie has triangular bracing much like the Tacomas.
Here is the D-61. It was made in both rosewood and ovangkol, under the same model number (I haven't figured this one out yet). Both have spruce tops. This is the ovangkol version, believed to be an '89.

This one now has a MOP saddle.

Here's the D-67SJ. As its name implies, it's a Southern Jumbo, with spruce (cedar?) top and ovangkol b&s. I believe it's an '84.
